I'll go see Zappa.

The local selections are excellent as well.

Helmet and Paramore is also worth a look. Will we   see SGrizz at these shows?

Not sure, you buying?

ghostland observatory should be very cool...
while paramore is cute and mildly entertaining and ,back in the day, helmet could rock... the line-up still just seems lacking to me... but then again, i hate jam bands... hopefully, the numbers will turn out...

Jam Bands fans are willing to travel to see shows.  This line-up will be a huge draw.  ZPZ is one of the best live shows going right now. If you think it is pathetic, then you haven't seen it. Flaming Lips are wildly popular - hard to find people who don't like their live shows.  Disco Biscuits, I'll admit, are an acquired taste (not a fan of their vocals), but they have a VERY dedicated fan base and are a great dance party.  I have friends already planning a drive from Albuquerque this year to see the shows.

i realize the dedication of jam band followers... that is why i said "hopefully" they'll turn-out... ****, i'm stocking up on pbj right now and will sell them in the parking lot for 50cents a pop... i'll make a fortune...

as for zpz? yikes, you are correct i have not seen him nor would i... a d-list musician playing his dead fathers music? sounds like a crappy vegas show...

never liked zappa but what in the hell do i know...

want an impressive line-up with zpz?
this line-up rocks

Yep, that line up does rock (I was involved with that fest for the first 2 years), but that is an entirely different league. It is an on-site camping festival on a large state park with scalable ticket and camping options.  It is huge, extremely well organized and generates BIG cash. That not something that suites downtown and you'll never get anything like that for a $30 ticket. Tix start at $160 (w/ some early bird discounts) VIP tickets are $460.  They also charge for a couple of levels of upgraded camping options ($225-$400 after tickets)and even have RV rental arrangements!

Those are some nice additions to the lineup. I really think this year's D-Fest is going to be awesome.

The Roots and Ghostland Observatory will definitely have me there.  I would love to see Ghostland pull the TU/OU/OSU band up on stage with them as they've done the UT band times before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MpGXjR59Q0&feature=related
