That's ridiculous. The obvious choice of names is Tomax and Xamot.

P.S. You get DUMB props for even remembering their names. For bonus points, if you can tell me the names of the Constructicons & The Dinobots then my vote for post of the week is all yours. ;)
Couldn't do those, although I do remember Grimlock. He was the Dinobot leader, if I recall.
I reference Tomax and Xamot probably once a month. Still. To this day. And I'm 29.

Originally posted by DeathFromAbove1979:and hour and half doesn't seem right given one album wonders Wolfmother, Ranconteurs and Gnarles Barkley were on the main stage. the bands on the main stage got slightly longer sets in the end because Keane dropped off, but not 90 minutes
Originally posted by biga0u812:Last year every band got roughly and hour. Headliners got close to90 minutes, The Who and Chili Peppers went over their set times, duh.
How long will the set times be for each band i didnt get a chance to go last year and i remember they had the set times posted on the website but since they changed it to the 07 format they dont have it anymore
Most DJs had longer sets, that's because Tiesto bailed last minute.
This year through 2 stages and the tent I imagine the same set times.

I hate to bring this up if it has already been discussed, but this thread is very long. Do you guys think there will still be single day passes available when they go on sale? I am terrified of them selling out 2 day passes before the 1 days go on sale, but I really don't want to go the first day because it's so darn expensive and the bands I really want to see are on day 2. Should I chance it?
my prediction: there will indeed be one-day passes available on may 19, but they will sell out quickly and afterwards there will still be 2-day passes left. so my opinion - completely unfounded - is that you're OK to wait, but you'll want to buy your one-day pass the second they go on sale.
From the buzzlife.com email, confirms what bands are in the tent.

I hate how it is always a dance "tent"…meaning by the end of the day, it is always so stank and hot inside it is hardly enjoyable. According to the Buzzlife people there will be some full band sets and the shout outx4 and CSS will be playing the tent as well
Ok who got their tickets today????????????? It was like a total of 260 bucks with 2 day pass and parking through ticketmaster. Anyone know how much it was through the box office or Macy's and that sort?????????????????
23 dollars in service charges.
What if u dont get the parking pass where will u have to park if theres parking at all

Some of the neighbors will use this as an opportunity to make a little money by allowing you to park on their lawns, in their driveways or wherever they have to offer. It won't be cheap but it's an option. Just be forewarned that, occasionally, some area entrepreneur will 'appear' to be the owner of the spot but will instead be some shyster taking your money for someone else's property. What happens in that case is purely at the good will, or not, of the owner.
Also, generally speaking, if you choose to park and bus, cab, walk it, east is usually safer than west. The problem with that direction though is that you will find too much hospital and park land to find much in the way of parking. West of the track gets really sketchy, more urban and still tight with parking though being a big day at the track, I would expect much more foot traffic and police prescence (no pun intended). Also, north (across Northern Parkway) is probably better than going south. Either way, it's not going to be a picnic outside of the track.
You can always study the MTA website (Google MTA + Baltimore) to find public transportation options. You can always take a Park and Ride and unlike the DC Metro, parking at their lots is free. The biggest problem is that Baltimore area public transportation totally sucks and is almost non-existent. The real trick will be finding what might go to Pimlico. Look for an east/west line along Northern Parkway if the Metro or Light Rail doesn't do it, which either may well not. If I'm up for it sometime, maybe I'll try to find some suggetions later.
If you opt for the Metro, you might want to drive out to Ownings Mills (NW of Baltimore City) and use their Park and Ride. Or if you opt for the Light Rail, go out to Timonium or Hunt Valley (directly N of Baltimore and north of Towson) and use their Park and Ride. I just don't know the relationship of either in regards to Pimlico. However, if you opt for either via downtown Baltimore, you will most likely have to pay all day to park your car in a private lot or garage. I know it seems counter-intuitive for those coming up from the DC area to drive up further north by a few miles but may well be your ideal option.
