    gonna go to the Sunday show......missed the Cure earlier this year, and FF is always fun.

    Will get nachos during DCFC!

    Strong line-up but defintely not for me. I was hoping we'd get a Weezer and a Beck and maybe a Queens or something.

    enjoy though!

    He always shows up and puts on a strong performance at any KROQ show.

    True. His performance at the 1997 Almost Acoustic Christmas was one of the best I have ever heard at a KROQ festival.

    I remember when STP played one of the songs from the Charlie Brown Christmas....perhaps that was 1994?
