What is it about? It's America's answer to Tribal Gathering.
Who will actually be there? You should be.
Oh, you meant the *acts*? Probably most all of them.
The promoters are Goldenvoice. They've been around for 20 years. They
put on *big* events here in L.A. nowadays. This is NOT A DRILL.
It's also being sponsored by KROQ. You know - Weenie Roast, bad "Alternative"
crap music (a proud KROQ tradition since 1976). That KROQ.
But the point is, this is legit, it will happen, and it's almost mind-blowing
how they're willing to make it, esentially, an Electronic Music festival with
some big American Indie acts taking the place of Tribal Gathering's Indie/Dance
crossover UK bands.
Ignoring the Rock/Jazz/Lounge/etc. acts, it's probably the most amazing
Electronic Music festival bill in United States history.
And if it's anything like Organic '96, it might even be the greatest.
Be there or be square.
