Fifty bucks to see the Avett Brothers and a bunch of supporting acts? Seems decent enough.

Last time I went to HFS'Tival Rage was the headliner, STP, Third Eye Blind, Bloodhound Gang and The Deftones were on the bill. This is a huge step down.

That would be worth it for Avett Bros & Clutch alone.

If you don't like the Avett Bros I suppose.

I do like the Avett Brothers, find their music very interesting. But this is the weakest line-up ever for the festival, don't even know why they put their name on it.

While the '11 fest isn't that impressive, you couldn't pay me to sit through one of the bands you mentioned. I see that and just want to sucker punch the 90's.
