God help us. Maybe
these leaders.
Hasn't Limp Bizkit been dormant for several years now? They must suck for no reason other than that. Pure nostalgia.

I guess Limp Bizkit was good enough when they were selling out Fall Edition HFStivals but now that the worm has turned there is no band (not even Creed or Nickleback) that get as much scorn as Mr. Durst's crew. For about three years in the late 90's/early 00's no band mattered more than Limp Bizkit. They meaned more then than Wilco or Arcade Fire do now. The only people who care about them is persons refined who have heard every track on Pitchfork's year end top 100. "Significant Other" is owned by a lot of people who only own about fifty CDs. More people indentified with Fred Durst and felt what he was saying then ever will with Jeff Tweedy. What can you feel with Jeff Tweedy? Righteous anger that they screwed up your order at Starbucks, that your new retro "kicks" have been scuffed and your librarian glasses aren't ironic enough? Finally, Dave Grohl is a far bigg

They would have to kick their crank habit and go back for their GED first.

My wish is that single day ticket prices for V-Fest would be comparable to Sasquatch ($56.50), Bumbershoot ($35) or Austin City Limits (2007 price: $60).

Those prices were when they had stadium worthy headliners like the Who and the Police. No way would they try to charge those prices with the headliners they've announced this year.

Yeah, that sounds about ideal. Maybe 60 and 119 since it is in DC, and people in DC are all rich.

Look at the headliners, a DC1010 listeners wet effing dream. And maybe even a Hot 99.5 listeners dream. The price will NOT go down and even if it does it will only be like 10 or 15 bucks.

false. might have been true for your small insular western-PA high school, but it didn't happen in the rest of the country. limp bizkit mattered to 14-year-olds who thought they deserved more allowance then they were already getting.

I think that everyone should decide which festival to go to based on ticket price
wait a minute…then it would be all about the money…just like those greedy promoters
