Are they going to have multiple stages setup? they have tons of bands listed and if they only have one or even two stages then it means super short setlists for all these bands...........think about Neurosis having to play a 20 minute set(about 2 songs).
Not to mention that it would also mean that the bands would be most likely playing with a backline of equipment so they could keep the transition times to a minimum. So basically you have approx. 40 completely different bands playing through the same cabs, heads and maybe drums. Hopefully this will not be the case but damn, how would they change everything out fast enough and get sound checks for every band in an quick manner.
i have many concerns about this. i could sit here all day and type out things that make me think this will be a disaster but i'll refrain. i'll also try to get some tickets b/c its worth a shot.....even if it turns out to be the clusterf*ck it seems it might be i could just leave. if it turns out to be as badass as the lineup then it'll be worth it. regardless it'll be good to hang out a bit.
