4. I wonder how many will be staying at our hotel...
I'm hoping we don't get Justin Bieber. Ten thousand screamy girls does not bode well.

5. I would go for only four of the acts listed...
.
...Weird Al (he has AMAZING musicians backing him up),
the B-52's (c'mon... they're the fucking B'52's!!!),
Yes and, believe it or not, Average White Band (some
of those dangerously-near disco funk bands were really
really TIGHT!!)
.
Of the other, only Apocalyptica would get me there.
.
LOVE the cello -- in all its incarnations.
.
You might blame Susan Sarandon in "Witches of Eastwick"
for that -- if I hadn't fallen for the instrument 10-20
years BEFORE that.
.

7. I play the cello
Its as wonderful playing it as it is watching someone play it. And. . .
Your right arm gets all muscular from bowing (the bows are pretty heavy).
Yes.
Yes INDEED.

15. I'd love to see Yes again.
Even though the current lineup is, kinda sorta, not the real thing.

17. It's not so bad
The singer is better at replacing Jon Anderson than Oliver Wakeman is at replacing Rick Wakeman, ironically.

18. I've never seen them with Rick anyway.
The only time I got to go was the Masterworks tour with Igor Khoroshev on keyboards. I thought he did a pretty good job btw.
