Snoop @ The Street Scene
UPDATE: I've posted the Street Scene lineup, with MP3 links, here.
Pollstar has added Snoop Dogg and Steel Pulse to the lineup. Snoop was there last year, I don't know who Steel Pulse is. CityBeat also came out today, with some speculation:
In the pure rumor department, weâve heard strong âchatterâ about Tom Petty, Tool, Modest Mouse, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Angels & Airwaves. And Vegas odds favor Wilco, Matisyahu, Kanye West and Gnarls Barkley also showing up.
All four of those "Vegas Odds" guys are already at Lollapalooza that weekend, so maybe they will share a plane. There's still nobody on there that's got me excited. Trying to pick who the "headliner" would be is difficult, there's nobody that is "Brag worthy" so to speak. Tom Petty in particular screams mediocrity. One thing that did hit me at some point in time was the fact that The Replacements are releasing two new songs on a new greatest hits album soon. You figure that them playing a live show isn't out of the question, and a huge summer festival would probably be the place to do it...

you can book angels and airwaves as far as i'm concerned.

Hey, is this real? You're the real Joe Callahan, design and media director of Street Scene 2005? I've been trying to get in touch with you for the past three weeks and the first I hear from you is when you call me retarded on my website? I'm just trying to pin down some details man. Who can you tell me to get me excited? I'm not being uncivil, I'm just a curious guy. Shoot me an email, I'm curious how a lineup like this comes together, maybe you could shed some light.
Your email didn't work, but your IP address comes from ROBERT H HAGEY JR DBA, so I guess you're legit. Still, pretty amazing.
