Got Sunday only ticket. Anything cool to see from Chicago to Austin? Helluva drive...breaks would be sweet!
I bet that is going to be one long boring drive over some flat land.
yup. there's not much to see on that drive, unfortunately.
I've made that drive a few times. My husband's brother and his family live in Benton Harbor, Michigan--right across the lake from you.
Um, what can I say, there's not much to see. (The Arch in St. Louis? :roll: ) You just have to find ways to make it interesting, which ain't easy.
We've driven on I-35 (booorrrrinnng) and once we had a route planned out for us on state highways by AAA that was a little more pleasant. On that trip we stopped in New Madrid, MO (site of the largest earthquake to ever strike the U.S.) and visited the tiny museum.
Either way, you're going to drive through a LOT of farmland. Better bring a lot of boots to listen to!
No Sonic Youth unforunately as some here were hoping for.
Too bad Bon Iver is against Pearl Jam.
Ooh brutal.
Y'all are going to have to try to catch them on Saturday instead.

felice bros., dan auerbach and deer tick are possibilities for me.
Yeah, I think I am going to catch both the Felice Bros and Deer Tick at the festival so I probably won't catch them after. Pumped about Auerbach though since I will miss him at the fest in favor of a better spot for Pearl Jam.
Lily Allen cancelled. A lot to fill on that stage (4:15 on). Hope C3 gets some decent acts and does not just bump others up since the fest is sold out.

i saw that. that leaves a big hole on Fri w/ Allen & The Beastie Boys out. i've heard rumors of Tool, Yeah Yeah Yeah's, Them Crooked Vultures & My Morning Jacket. we'll see. i'm kind of surprised that they haven't announced the BB replacement yet.

I would love Them Crooked Vultures and/or MMJ. Would be disappointed by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and am indifferent to Tool. I think if YYY's were headlining it would have been already announced since C3 had them replace Beasties at Lolla. I am definitely suprised the Beasties replacement has yet to be announced

Did she cancel for sure? She's still listed on the lineup, just not on the schedule. Maybe they are just shuffling things around.
I don't think My Morning Jacket will play, but I wonder if Monsters of Folk might. Either way, I hope we get a nice surprise for the headliner (and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs would not be a nice surprise... ).

Someone from C3 did say the other day that they are in the process of shuffling the schedule but I don't think this is part of it. I think it was pretty much expected that she would cancel.
I would love to see MMJ or Them Crooked Vultures but I really don't see either of them happening. You are right YYY's would not be a nice suprise, more of a disappointment.
I just hope C3 does the right thing and replaces them rather than bumping everyone up and finding smaller acts even though the fest is sold out.

MMJ are taking a well deserved break so MOF would be a better bet.
This show, another show, a show here and a show there.
Without doing any research to see who's even possibly touring, I'd love to see Springsteen, R.E.M. or the Killers take one of those spots. Or move Ben Harper & R7 to Friday night so it doesnt butt up so close to PJ.
Not any females on the weekend lineup I have any interest in seeing either. Gillian Welch, Lucinda Williams, Tori Amos, Juliana Hatfield or Liz Phair would be cool replacements.
I'd be happy with My Morning Jacket, Ryan Bingham or Neko Case too.
Think it's too soon for a Ryan Adams & The Cardinals reunion?

I can't imagine that.
Well, I am all set with Pearl Jam for awhile. 2 in Chicago, ACL and 2 in Philly.
Now watch them announce a show in Dallas in October.

Aw, don't you look cute! You can tell it's early in the day because you're not nearly sunburned enough!
Well, now I'll know who to look for!
That was my birthday, btw!
I'm getting pretty pumped for ACL too!
I find this site pretty useful www.roadsideamerica.com.
Then again, Im a nerd and I love shit like that.

It said "Life is nothing but a dream."
I've spent so many years in question
To find I'd known this all along.
It's only about a 2 hour flight from Chicago to Austin

There's a constant ringing in my ears
Sense of humor's void and numb
And I'm bored to tears.......
