Szabo Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Looks like a great lineup, I guess it ruins any chance of the Pumpkins at Lolla though. August 4-5 Pimlico Race Course, Baltimore, MD The only thing that sucks about this is that it is the same weekend as Lolla.

bsr8j Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 The only thing that sucks about this is that it is the same weekend as Lolla. The other thing that sucks is that it is outdoors...in Baltimore...in August...with almost no shade. That's gonna be one hot day. We went to the first Virgin Fest last year and had a great time. I gotta say though, I hope they come up with a lot of great bands to fill out the lineup. Last year's festival was incredible top to bottom (started the day with the Drive-By Truckers, ended it with the RHCP). If you compare this year's bands so far to last year's top 3-4 bands (RHCP, The Who, and the Flaming Lips), they've got a long way to go to match that this year. I loved the Smashing Pumpkins growing up, but I can't say I'm pysched to see them at this thing. It also sucks that bands will have to choose between playing Lolla and the Virgin Fest. Either way, I can't wait to see what they come up with. At last year's show this is what our day looked like (it was incredible)... Drive-By TruckersNew PornographersThe RaconteursGnarls BarkleyThe KillersThe Who (easily the best part of the day)RHCP (it killed me to not go see the Flaming Lips, but we figured we'd see them next time they came through town, but probably wouldn't make it out to see the RHCP at their own show) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Wow, a festival within driving distace from me. UNBELIEVABLE!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bsr8j Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 They've announced all the bands for the show. I think last year's festival had a much stronger line up overall, but it would still be great to see some of those bands. Virgin Music Festival 2007 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jhh4321 Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 The only thing that sucks about this is that it is the same weekend as Lolla. Interesting...a lot of bands actually overlap with the Lolla lineup. TVotR, Modest Mouse, LCD, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Its good to know there is now a music fest strictly for virgins..... LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G_willy Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 this sounds like an AWESOME festival to me. There seems to be a lot of diversity and I really think thats what festivals should be about. Question for the VC? Does anyone out here like drum n bass music? I saw dieselboy and andy c where playing at this and almost creamed my pants. REALLY wish I lived in maryland....really wish it wasn't same weekend as lollapalooza.... BUT IT LOOKS AWESOME! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
