Couple bands I've seen before. If you are thinking of going and have XM, you might want to listen to XM-U (the College-rock oriented station). A lot of the lesser-known bands lower on the bill get airplay there. I see 5 or 6 names here I recognize just from that.

Unfortunately, here in Columbus we have 'Rock on the Range,' which is mostly metal/nu-metal. That's ok I guess, but there's not a single band on the bill this year that I want to see.
