This is the worst ACL line up of all time!

Marty P. | 4/15/2008, 10:42 am EST

What ?? !!! No KISS??? !!!

Drew below is retarded if he can’t find something in this lineup to enjoy. Better yet, maybe his dumb ass could tell us what a good lineup is, wad’ya say??

Gotta Agree with drew. I would feel otherwise if Plant was playing with three other British men rather than Krauss.

Austin Rocks, as far as a good lineup goes, how about last year, or the year before with Petty and Radiohead co headlining.

Where is Wilco? Spoon? Flaming Lips? Dr. Dog?

Could be worse. Bob Dylan could be playing.

Festival lineups should never be the same. This looks pretty solid to me, very eclectic set. And if you can’t find ways to enjoy yourself in Austin, you probably have no business going there in the first place

Oh yeah?! Well, I say oogily eh googily to all the ACL naysayers!

Neko Case, Iron & Wine, Band of Horses, Alejandro Escovedo, Patty Griffin, Gillian Welch, M. Ward – Not bad.

Biram RULES | 4/16/2008, 4:41 pm EST

Scott H Biram is pure music folks. I saw him a few times in Minneapolis and he will make you wonder why you have not heard of him.

Really hoping to get to go to this! Back Door Slam and Bonamassa are enough of a draw for me…but there are so many great artists here! Love the variety!

kareem ahvunyun | 5/6/2008, 9:10 pm EST

ive heard most ad nauseum, but you have to love the new standards….
joe bonamasa will be great to hear more of.

but the excellent show is going to be the new up and comers from the isle of man.

BACK DOOR SLAM
