    Interesting. I went to some Cirque de Soleil shows in this area prior to it being developed, but that was north of this location.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    That's quite a disparate group, musically.

    Violent Femmes, though, are one of the several greatest bands ever!

    I've seen the Femmes twice in concert and had a blast both times. Have never seen Tears For Fears but I like a lot of their music. I got tickets for Saturday but not sure if I want to get tickets for Sunday also. GZA would be awesome to see.

    Yeah, the Violent Femmes are great live. And I agree that GZA would also be great to see perform.

    I saw the Femmes only when they were playing the Rose Festival several years ago.

    Add It Up is one of my favorite songs of all time, and it's fun as heck to play it on an acoustic guitar.

    I am not seeing where any of these bands are on the lineup in this link. Am I internet illiterate?
