2008 line up discussion

[48FAN]

Sounds like alot of people will be sitting this one out, they better re think the line up and bring in some bigger performers. Brad paisly, Jason Aldean, Jason Michael Caroll, Keith urban. Not to offend anyone, but The Judds????? Come on!!!! That is like bringing Dolly Parton and Mel Tillis. Great in their times but not as big as the people last year. Again this is only one opinion. I respect everyones views. I am not about to spend good money on this, very disapointed to say the least.

[Cooter]

for every person that decides not to go i am sure they will be replaced by a new fan who will have the time of their life. you won't be missed...

[48FAN]

Thanks for respecting my opinion as I do evryone elses, I dont take it personal, its just music. You dont know me and how do you know i won't be missed? Thanks for the feed back though.

wow. I read a few message boards here and there but I have yet to visit one just to say how I don't like it. haha, that's funny to me. To each his own I guess.

I myself and very excited about the festival. This being only the 2nd year and wow look at the artists combined. It's insane. I was blown away last year when I wasn't sure what I was going to do with 10 hours of my time but my buddies and I had an absolute blast wondering around from stage to stage. My friend brought his 4 year old son who loved the half pint hootenanny thing. And I was so happy there were little to no lines at the other bathrooms not next to the mane stage. We laughed our asses off at the long lines when you could walk a few minutes with no wait.

I'm looking forward to checking out a bunch of artists I'm not even going to pigeon hole myself by naming who. But I'm even more excited about what we might discover.

I think it's a super line up!!!!!!!!!! Rascal Flatts and Tim McGraw are worth the price alone!!!!!!!!!!!! WOWWWWWWWWW Can't wait ---had a terrific time last year and know positively that this year will be fantastic!!!

[countrycutie]

Last year was amazing and this year is going to be amazing as well. My friends and I cant wait to see all these great acts. Its unfortunate that some feel the need to bash because things arent to their likeing...Its about the music the people, friends and the memories that will come out of this experience. I know we will have a blast and I hope everyone that goes has just as much fun.

grissem - love the great attitude. you're the people that make the festival. would love the inside scoop on the no-line bathrooms. we walked to the front gate row every time. were there others??? guess i was the one you were laughing at! ha ha!!

[TomAz]

ah lahk the Judds mahself


butt whar's the alter country stage et this year?

[hillbillyRockstar]

This will be my first year and I'm going just because it is the most awesome concert out here. Yeah, my personal favorites are not on the bill (alas, they were all there last year!), but there still are going to be some great country artists there this year. I'm looking forward to taking it all in--walking from stage to stage and hearing all these acts I've never heard before.

I think Rascal Flatts could be the second to last up on Saturday--seems a bigger act is needed there--but plenty of people think Rascal Flatts are the hottest around right now.

The Judds is going to be quite a show. Getting to see them back again for one night will be something not too many people across the US will be able to say.

I'm going to miss a lot I was hoping would be there, but there are also going to be a lot I've never seen--which may end up being my new favorites.

I've seen Clay Walker. He's ok, but his photos are retouched. He doesn't look the same in person.

[hillbillyRockstar]

If Clay is added, that is pretty good. I remember when Chain Of Love was all the rage several years ago.

[Glockgirl]

Maybe Countrygurl can answer this but do you think they will actually add someone? I don't remember them adding anyone last year. The only surprise I can think of was when Uncle Kracker hit the stage with Kenny. If thats the way they pull off a surprise, I'd think Kid Rock or Cowboy Troy as both are associated with Gretchen & Big & Rich.

[dennysbabe]

I loved Alan Jackson, Brooks & Dunn, George Strait, and Sugarland in last year's line up and really glad to see Carrie Underwood, Tim McGraw, The Judds, Dwight Yoakam, and George Jones in it this year! I'm just 5 miles away and really glad to have a country music event like this in Coachella Valley! Thanks Goldenvoice!

[TRISERATOP]

So, against my better judgement (and pocketbook), I purchased to VIP tix during the presale......I had a dream last night that 3 old-time country performers were going to be added and that pushed me over the edge.......see you in May with a tequila sunrise in each hand!!

[TRISERATOP]

Oops....I meant 2 instead of to.......must be the tequila!!

[TRISERATOP]

In hindsight, maybe my dream will come true.....in looking at the 2008 poster, don't you think there's some room with the awfully big spacing between rows??

[hillbillyRockstar]

There is a lot of days inbetween now and May. Someone may want to get in on the action--who knows!?

[abra]

i'd give my right arm to see jason aldean again. that'd be my dream come true - if he added to the lineup.

[koalababy]

trust me - LOL - rascal flatts puts on a superb performance - woooohooooooo I've got my tickets
