..stacked, as usual. What, you expected otherwise? overall I am pleased with this line up..not quite as good as last year. However, I think the addition of Ben Folds tips the scales way into awesome territory.
In case you were wondering, Lez Zeppelin is an all-female Zep cover band. they pretty much sound the part (listen here)..still I'm disappointed that the real deal won't be there.
I'll be anxiously awaiting the additional artist announcements.
