    I’ve seen Pearl Jam 25 times, Eddie Vedder 9 times, and Brad once.

    Damn, I was really hoping PJ would be there this year. I want to see NY but there are quite a few in that lineup that are not watchable imo. :(

    Is it just me or does it seem like this show is dying a slow death. The last few shows have been lacking the big names that previous shows had. Reserved tickets haven't even sold out either of the last 2 years and this year will likely be the same. I can remember when you had to be online the minute seats went on sale. Perhaps Neil is trying to keep it fresh by trying new acts. I can respect that, it's just a shame that such a can't miss event is slowly becoming an afterthought.

    I just cannot stand his music. The fact it takes people to get really tanked to enjoy it, says something. ;)

    I appreciate the folks that love the experience of his shows, but, his music is not for me.

    joke of a band list... easily the worst benefit/festival line-up I have EVER seen. I mean Gavin Rossdale doing a solo set!!! OMG doesn't get much worse and Chris Martin isn't too far behind him to be honest. I would pay money to see Fleet Foxes, MOF and Neil but that is it. OMG awful and Wolfmother!?!?!?!? Worst ever.
    I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you

    Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl

    I love you forever and forever :)

    To be fair with regard to Chris Martin, Coldplay is absolutely huge, so ... I think that's a good artist to have.

    Rossdale on the other hand has been nowhere to be found for quite a while ... and the thought of him and Gwen doing a duo is stomach turning.

    Showstopper right there :lol: The kids will probable get a kick out of him.

    Gavin Rossdale solo… dream come true… NOT :roll:

    Leave it to Neil to shake things up this year. I guess PJ and DMB were getting too predictable.

    Still think Pearl Jam being off that weekend is not a coincidence. My guess is Ed will attend for the kids.

    I really got the feeling with Ed thanking the Bridge School kids at Outside Lands that they weren't going to play this year.

    And the lineup already seems jam-packed for both days. It'll be hard to add anybody else.
