SY @ All Points West Music & Arts Festival?
 
All Points West Music & Arts Festival

August 8-10, 2008

The planned festival at Liberty State Park
 
in Jersey City may be over six months away, but it’s already rumored to have some acts that I would actually leave Hoboken and go see! Radiohead, Bjork, The Strokes, Sonic Youth and more may play at this three-day festival.

This is an urban off-shoot of the west coast Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival
 
, which is held in a desert, and requires pretty much camping out for three-days in order to attend.

Supposedly this event, plus other large concerts scheduled in the south Jersey and Philly areas caused the cancellation of the Vineland Music Festival
 
poised to take place at the same time.
If this rumored list of performers turns out true, I’ll be there. What about you?

Sign up to their site to stay informed: http://www.apwfestival.com/
 




Here’s a list of possible acts:
August 8th
Headliner: Bjork
Sub-headliner: The Strokes
Others: Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Broken Social Scene, The Rapture
August 9th
Headliner: The Flaming Lips
Sub-headliner: Sonic Youth
Others: My Bloody Valentine, Portishead, Mogwai
August 10th
Headliner: Radiohead
Sub-headliner: Sigur Ros
Others: Bright Eyes, Mars Volta, LCD Soundsystem

Moshe, where did you find that list? Because someone posted that on brooklynvegan.net as a sort of joke, although Radiohead is very likely.

Is there any more info on this? I signed up at the website, but I would be interseted to know when tickets go on sale and prices. If this is true I will make a trip up from Florida. Sonic Youth, Radiohead, The Strokes, Bright Eyes and Mars Volta sounds too good to be true!!
