A guy tried having a legitimate conversation with me a few months ago about how incredible BMTH was. Since I was drunk, it didn't go over very well for him.

That Friday night line-up is terrible compared to the rest of the weekend. Looks like some sort of shitty local fair line up than a Reading or Leeds. I wouldn't watch 90% of those bands for free if they were playing in the field across from my house.

I've seen BMTH twice. I hate them so much but they've opened for other bands I wanted to see.
They were awful both times.

Their singer is probably the worst thing to ever happen to death metal.

Love Your Mother Earth Festival is a Missoula festival with many local artists, and hasn't been around too long. Nothing too big, but looks pretty cool. Waiting for some updated info. Posted last years info, this years should be a little better. Many kinds of music. All night electronic music. This will be my first year going.

When they say "many many more acts to be announced" they mean it. That festival has 6-7 stages full of music everyday. I agree that the announced names aren't much compared to the other days, but there is still much hope for the undercard.
EDIT: Okay, just realized that it is mentioned: there are in fact 7 stages. The text on the posters for the last stage is always so small it is hard to read.

After the recent additions (most notably Guided By Voices), I might just have to go to Pitchcock this year

, if you want a ticket for face, PM me. One extra.
New additions are pretty awesome, especially GBV (hope they get a better slot than they will at Sasquatch), Neko Case, Kurt Vile, Baths, How to Dress Well

Yeah let me know. But don't feel obligated, I won't have any problem finding a home for it if you can't go.
I just booked my Amtrak from Helena to Chicago and back. Only $136.

Not sure if anyone is interested but Sled Island in Calgary just announced another 6 bands with another 100 next Friday. Looking pretty good thus far. No Pitchfork but good nonetheless.
Chali 2na, Braids, Kurt Vile and the Violators, Alberta Cross, The Raveonettes and Hunx and His Punx

I think it's hilarious how there are so many bands on this years warped tour lineup that don't fit in the warped tour vibe at all. There's a bunch of indie, folk rock, post-rock, and other bands that just don't seem like they belong with the likes of Attack attack and The Devil Wears Prada

Big Chocolate playing Warped Tour?? Wtf!
I don't know how they do it but that festival continues to get worse year after year.

| Seriously. Last year there were a couple bands I was willing to sit through all the shit for. (Andrew W.K., Agent Orange, Reel Big Fish) but this year there's hardly anything I would really want to see.
I'm still probably gonna go though just because all my friends go and it's still alot of fun
