Umm...I don\'t get it. The first two sound totally kickass and the 3rd one is at least understandable.
Anyhow, it just occurred to me that the most bizarre lineups in music are definitely at college spring concerts. I wish I could remember all the ridiculous band combos they had at UMass while I was there. Al, can you help? I think our freshman year was something like Strangefolk > Naughty By Nature > Smashmouth. Wow.
2000: Redman/Method Man, Long Beach Dub Allstars, Beanie Man, Biz Markie
2001: Lil\' Kim, Uncle Kracker, Dropkick Murphy\'s
2002: Ludacris, The Roots, Guster
2003: 50 Cent, Reel Big fish, Rahzel
There were some smaller bands thrown into the mix like a DMB cover band, Percy hill or Strangefolk as well as some side stage fillers but I can\'t remember which ones specifically.
