News: Lineup for the first Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival
March 26th, 2008 - by Eddie
How are all these first-time festivals getting kick-ass performers? I tried to put a festival on in my backyard and all I got was a bum on a harmonica and my dad snoring in a lawn chair with a half-empty beer in his hand (somehow, it was a success).
We got news of the inaugural lineup of Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival being held in San Francisco’s historic Golden Gate Park on August 22 - 24, 2008.
But we literally lost our shit when we found out that RADIOHEAD was going to be there. Did you catch that? I said RADIOHEAD.
Oh right, this is a festival, which means you get more music awesomeness with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Jack Johnson, Wilco, Rodrigo y Gabriela and Broken Social Scene, just to name a few.
What’s that? Too indie rock for you and want the hip-hop? Little Brother and The Coup will be there too. I know. My pants are soiled too.
Tickets go on sale this Sunday, March 30, 2008, at 10am PST through www.SFOutsidelands.com.
If you’re on the East Coast and suck at math, the time is 1pm for you.
The rest of the initial lineup is after the jump. The festival claims there will be a total of 60 acts on five stages. Happy Hunting…and screw you if you live on the West Coast.
