i thought Korn was headlining.

today while driving through the lovely batlimore city traffic… i heard an hfs commercial like where they play tidbits of songs.. and i heard a little bit of the cure, which made me tune in more and then i noticed they had played a little clip from a system of a down song right before.. and a few other songs but i didnt hear them but.. you know how normally they do that as just a promo of songs you can hear on the station? well, after it this time it says like… wfsmas nutcracker (however you spell it) and i was just like hmmmmm?? did anyone else hear this? it was like listen in tomorrow for all the details, but i wonder why they would play little clips of that? maybe making up for the cancellation this past fall? any insight? anyone?? i might not have to worry about waking up tomorrow morning to hear the announcement, as i simply just might not fall asleep tonight.
ps, i am not suggesting or assuming, just simply wondering if anyone else heard this promo and what they thought about it.

Last year's was pretty good, with Queens of the Stone Age, Distillers, Zwan, and the almighty Godfather of Soul James Brown, but I don't have high hopes for this year. However, if the cure plays i am so there. :)

Oh, shit! I know The Cure have gotten themselves together and are on the road again, so just maybe. And it would be just like HFS to book one great band with a load of crap!

I heard that promo as well. It says, "Ghosts of Nutcracker's past" and then goes into the snippets of bands that have played in previous years (Cure, QOTSA, SOAD, etc.).

i think the limp/korn tour and chevelle are playin, but they announce everything monday morning

I think i've read the Korn/Limp Bizkit tour will be hitting Nation on November 23rd, my b-day! But i dunno what happened to it since it kind of disappeared from the Limp Bizkit site so i have no idea what's gonna happen. All I know is, i'll wake up looking at whfs.com tomorrow, that's for sure. And to make some odd connection, I "got" the new Blink-182 album and on track 12 it sounds like the Robert Smith of The Cure is on it but i'm probably wrong but it sounds somewhat like him!

Thats probably cause all new bands sound like old bands. I bet there are fifty groups out there that sound like Robert Smith of The Cure.

It sounds like Robert Smith because it is Robert Smith…..

As far as the line up for the hfs nutcracker, I've "heard" rumours of : korn, staind, hoobastank, chevelle, offspring and blink 182….

For what it's worth, K-Rock (NYC) has announced that "night one" of their holiday festival show (I can't recall the name) will feature Blink 182, Brand New, Linkin Park, and 311.

Bands tend to go up and down the East Coast on these radio festival shows. For example, I think most acts from the HFS Nutcracker last year also played for K-Rock and the rock station in Philly. So I would expect at least one of those four to play the Nutcracker.


EDIT: I just looked it up, "night two" of the event will feature Staind, POD, Offspring, and Chevelle.

Well here's the line up for it:

Korn
Blink 182
Staind
Chevelle
Offspring
AFI
Hoobstank

It could have been worse if they had limp bizkit..

MindCage
Mindless Faith
Deep6 Productions

These package shows are my own personal hell on earth. Two bands are really all I can hack in one event. HFS is shit. All these bands are shit.

package shows suck, HFS sucks, the Patriot Center sucks, northern Virginia REALLY sucks. and all of those bands suck.

what a big bunch of suck. i mean, really.

Have no desire to see even one of these bands. Well that was easy!

Its officially time for HFS to give Kevorkian a call.

random citizen…. : thanks for the clarification. sorry, like i said i only caught on to the end. but anyway, looks like a lot of hope turned into a load of crap. oh well, could we really expect much more? life is always more entertaining having high hopes to be let down ;)
