Hey guys  & gurls,
  Well today was the first day of The RiverFest music festival in Somerset, Wisconsin. It's a huge rock concert with a bunch of sweet bands.  Over 8,000 people.  The bands that played today (friday) were:

• L.T.D.
  
• Fighting Tongs
  
• Atomship
  
• Apartment 26
  
• Soil
  
• Cold
  
• Sevendust
  
• and DamagePlan

Here's a poster with all the bands playing today and tomarrow.  Although the friday Concert last year was better, the one this year was still bad ass.  I'll post some more news on Sunday or Monday.  Post if you like any of these bands.  No negative posts please. 

-peace

Are all those bands American or am I just being thick, I've never heard of any of them?

Have fun dude






PS: huge rock concert? 8000 people is considered a very small concert here... heck, we (with our youthmovent) always organise each summer a big open-air party. That takes 8000 people alone

Ever heared of Rock Werchter, a 4-day festival held in Belgium on 1st-4th of June? The biggest international artists are always queueing up to play there. The concert is known for it's quality, fun and atmosphere all over the world

The current playlist:
Admiral Freebee, Air, Arsenal, Basement Jaxx, The Bees, The Black Eyed Pees, David Bowie, Black Rebel Motorcylce Club, Broken Social Scene, The Cure, Cypress Hill, Daan, Danko Jones, The Darkness, Dropkick Murphys, El Tattoo del Tigre, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Franz Ferdinand, Nelly Furtado, Girls in Hawaii, Ben Harper and The Innocent Criminals, PJ Harvey, Heideroosjes, Korn, Kosheen, Flip Kowlier, Lenny Kravitz, Lamb,  Lostprophets, Magnus, Metallica,  Moloko, Monster Magnet, Muse, N*E*R*D, Novastar, Roy Paci & Arestuka, P!NK, Pixies, Placebo, The Rapture, The Rasmus, Sean Paul, Sioen, Sophia, Starsailor, Jasper Steverlinck, Joss Stone, Sugababes, Thou, Tortoise, T.Raumschmiere, Triggerfinger, The Von Bondies, Wilco, Within Temptation, Wu-Tang Clan, Youngblood Brass Band, Zero 7, Zornik, and maybe more...
(and that's without the supported bands; like Slipknot will support Mettalica)

(and then some people here even say this line-up isn't that good , it was better other years... go figure )

It is already sold out though (took only a few weeks), so that's the pitty. The 70000 people will have a great festival... (btw, the little town Werchter has normaly a small 15000 habitants, so during those days it will be a bit more )

During the summer-months there are always several festivals going on all over Belgium (and Netherlands also) each week. It's like a wet dream for party people

That would be the most beautiful thing I would ever see in my life.  I love rock concerts.  I'm going to one called "Project Revolution" at the end of August.  Its a 2 day music festival with Linkin Park, The Core, KoRn, and snoop dog (plus more...).  That will be awesome.  I also want to go to a Fish concert, those are kool, to say the least. 

Well I'm glad accouple people actually responded, it took a while but ohwell.   

in britain the biggest rock/indie concert is probably the reading/leeds festival, that seriously rocks.

its over 3 days, and features loads of bands, this year the line up is.

dude thats a sweet line up, i've heard of half of them... twisted sister lmao, eighties style!!

reading is fucking gr8, leeds looks wicked, i may have to go, but i may go 2 the ozzfest, if not, i can save my ass up, and go 2 all three days!!! lol
