Devin the Dude
Invincible
Butcher Bear & Charlie
League of Extraordinary G'z
DJ Nick Nack

will be opening up the day on Saturday.

and Weird Al Yankovic will be headlining Friday night!

Should be funny like the press conference today. Hosted by Matt Bearden.


I'm not really sure what was happening here.


A lone bass player finangled an on the spot audition that floored everyone in the room and may have scored him a booking. Though I think this dude is really a spy/papparazzo from ThorazineMZ.com


So yeah I was there and learned about all this about 15 seconds before the internets. It's really goin' down. Peep the press release below, definitely click the link above and see the whole line-up and get your passes ASAP. This event is going to sell out.

男人有婚外情,就像是證明自己魅力猶存;
然而當女人有了婚外情,卻成為眾人所髮指的目標!
男人有婚外情,多半願意回頭太太還是會原諒他;
然而當女人有了婚外情,卻鮮少丈夫能夠接受!
男女的不平等,在婚外情中,一樣得到驗證!

明知道他有婚姻,筱蝶還是陷進去了
他告訴筱蝶,不是不願意離婚
只是孩子還小,他不忍心孩子這麼小就面臨父母離婚的難題
他告訴筱蝶,他有多麼愛她
他多想馬上離婚光明正大和她在一起
他告訴筱蝶,她值得更好的人,但是他捨不得放手
只要給他兩年時間,他就會馬上離婚
多麼動聽的話,為了他的承諾,筱蝶甘心傻等
一心等對方離婚、一心想要成為他的太太
然而當兩年的時間過去了
男人還是沒有離婚
他淡淡的對筱蝶說:我配不上妳,所以我要放妳自由!
