I was already stoked to be able to see the Vandals, Bad Religion, Gwar, Suicidal Tendencies and a mess of other insanely good bands, but, when Devo had to cancel, the guys at Transmission Entertainment managed to get the Descendents back together for the first time in 10 years!!!!! It's going to be a very very drunken punk rock weekend.
Descendents over Devo any day! that will definitely be a blast. i saw the descendents on one of their final tours, and though they have a pretty simple stage presence, it is one of my most memorable shows.
It is an awesome gig and you should drive down to attend it! This is the best punk gig on the planet. perhaps... Next year, Dead Kennedy's reunion! fingers crossed...
While it would be nice, it'll never happen. I believe they still aren't talking to each other and there is still outstanding litigation. Fugazi, however...
yesss Fugazi would be nice. Minor Threat would be betta' I will trade you 2 Dead Kennedy's for 1 Minor Threat.
damn, I saw the Descendents at some lame fest in NJ in 2002, which turned out to be their last show they played until this. Bummer ALL canceled their east coast tour in Jan, and never rescheduled.
The last Descendents CD I bought was the Live CD that comes with ALL Plus One. They played so dang FAST for that show!
