Comedy line up includes Zach Galifiankas, Demetri Martin, Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job, Todd Barry, Jon Benjamin, God’s Pottery, People’s Republic of Komedy & more.
Once you get past the headliners, the lineup improves drastically: Erykah Badu, Bon Iver, and the Gaslight Anthem? I want to go to there.
Tickets are on sale Saturday, February 28 at 10am.
I want to go to there is my favorite.
I’m not really sure who Kings of Leon are, but the rest of headliners are pretty exciting. It’s like it’s 1995 again! I get to see all the bands I never got to see growing up.
I guess that makes this the first official announced date of the NIN/Jane’s tour. Of the acts I’ve never seen, I’d love to check out Explosions in the Sky and Black Moth Super Rainbow live (but isn’t having BMSR and Tobacco on the bill kind of redundant?). I hear Gogol Bordello plays a hell of a show, too.
You’ve heard correctly tk. I’m not so much into dancing outside of drunken wedding receptions. That said, I dance like an idiot at Gogol Bordello shows.
Honestly the headliners are junk. After managing to get REM, Modest Mouse, The Cure, Death Cab, Bjork, Beastie Boys, Arcade Fire, Interpol over the last few years and this year they roll in with the Kings of Leon and the corpse of Perry Farrell’s Jane’s Addiction and expect us drop $400 over a weekend for that?
I’m far more stoked to see Animal Collective at the Gorge than to see them at the Roseland. So that’s nice.
wtf does tim and erics awesome show great job mean? will t&e be there?
