I believe the festival's facebook page said they are still working on confirming the openers.

Got my tickets today. More expensive than U2 / Arcade Fire in Moncton.
Always worth it for me :thumb:

Anybody else going? I'm expecting it to be less crowded than years past (2006, 2008), simply due to the lack of other strong acts this weekend.

Also read on facebook that we will know who the opener is tomorrow (Tuesday 21st) by "3:16" pm.

Day before the show... anybody going? Or am I going to be the only one :P ?
I can fire off a text to someone if they play anything rare-ish. (And I guess 'Springtime In Vienna' is rare these days).

I'm still undecided...but i think i'll probably end up passing. I just saw them last night in Moncton, and have spent enough money on concert tickets already this summer (Hip, Brad Paisley, Metallica, U2).

I mulling over a last minute trip to the Island for this. How much are tickets?

Tim Chaisson is a talented east coaster (can fiddle, play guitar and has a great voice)...I wouldn't miss him if I was attending

Lighten up Francis! You have had a hard on against the boys for years now. It's getting stale.

We may bitch about the set list and what not but we all understand it's the summer circuit. Yes, it's a set list for drunk squares. Big deal. Pass them a joint, tell them chill out and get your Hip on.

one day you'll be an old run down fart and will be pining for them to get back together to play even a couple of songs
