Um, can anyone tell me why people on this board are constantly amazed that popular groups/artists headline for less popular groups?

John Legend sells more than Common and De La Soul, people will come out to this show for John Legend. Make sense?

from allmusic

"If you've listened to Top 40 radio or flipped through the video channels during the past few years, odds are pretty good you know something about John Legend. He played piano on Lauryn Hill's "Everything Is Everything" and might as well be considered Kanye West's sidekick, "
I see De La and Rahzel will be at 9:30 the next day. Perhaps a surprise appearance from Common?

No idea. Couldn't find an explanation on either Recher's site or Mike's.

At least it makes things a bit easier for me - now it's just a choice between Aqualung or Eels on the 28th
Aqualung is also at Starr Hill soon if that helps
