Thanks to everyone and their words of support. It means a lot. You guys are what's keeping me from...I dunno. Something.
So...Live 8 is for pussies.
All these people have descended on my city to raise awareness of hippies...I mean...lesbians...I mean...aging New Jersey rockers...I mean...Def Leppard...I mean...country music...I mean...Linkin Park...I mean...Christian rock...I mean...it's all a crock of shit.
So...being as it's too hot to be outdoors among the throngs of people just looking to score, I've decided to start my own all day festival to raise awareness of poverity in my own home. Here's my list of 21acts (Note they're bands who have all toured within the past 25 years, and all of them have key living members. For example, the Clash would have been my reunion, but with Joe Strummer's breathing priveldges being revoked, it would be impossible. Get it?) However, I do get one dead guy act, cause it's my show. Yea, I should have picked Elvis or Sinatra. Oh well.
It's a mishmosh of acts, and 21 isn't enough....but give it a shot. Just cut and paste the time list and remove the acts as you see fit.
11:00 AM ZZ Top
11:30 AM Dropkick Murphys
11:30 AM Stiff Little Fingers
Noon Buddy Guy
12:30 PM The Commodores
1:00 PM The Slackers
1:30 PM The Specials
2:00 PM Madness
2:30 PM The Pogues
3:00 PM Oasis (But only if the brothers talk shit on each other)
3:30 PM Spacehog
4:00 PM BossToneS (reunion gets an hour)
5:00 PM Pietasters (They stay for the whole hour, backing up JB)
5:30 PM James Brown (It's hot outside, he's 72, a half hour of classics)
6:00 PM The Tops (They still tour even though Payton's death makes 3 Tops)
7:00PM Outkast
8:00 PM Sam Cooke (My dead guy choice)
9:00 PM Springsteen (Only with the E Street Band, no bullshit politics)
10:00 PM Rolling Stones
11:00 PM AC/DC (they end up blowing up the stage)
I should have added Oakenfold or something, but there just wasn't time. Damn Philadelphia noise ordinance.
