altrocker1807 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Maybe it's just me not keeping up with the festival news and such...but a festival in Kansas City seems a bit random (?). Cool news anyway for Muse fans in the midwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aMU5Eme Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I actually might be able to go to this. It's summer and I live in Colorado ^_^ REALLY hope I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatten Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Kanrocksas? What a horrible name. I'm sure I'll go since it's not far from St. Louis, but not looking forward to seeing Whitesnake, Stryper, and Dokken. Just kidding..... but with that name, that's who I'd expect to see there.

MattMelRach Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Anyone else think it's odd that they won't confirm Lolla yet until it's officially announced, but they did confirm this without it being on the Kanrocksas website? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaSarahS Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Anyone else think it's odd that they won't confirm Lolla yet until it's officially announced, but they did confirm this without it being on the Kanrocksas website? Probably because Lolla has more clout than a young, brand new fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprocketeer Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 The fact that this is occurring during one of Lolla's days both A) saves me from blowing even more money on them, and B) devastates me because I won't be going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackparker Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 So who could the other headliner be? I've not heard anything yet Somehow I get drawn to thinking Arcade Fire or The Strokes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaSarahS Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Stupid name for a festival. The fact that this is occurring during one of Lolla's days both A) saves me from blowing even more money on them, and B) devastates me because I won't be going. Agreed!

sprocketeer Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Stupid name for a festival. This seriously isn't helping my list of reasons to never visit Kansas. Dirt, tornadoes, tumbleweeds, miles of wheat and corn followed by miles of absolutely nothing, and now BAD PUNS. No offense to folks who live in Kansas, as I'm sure...uh...that the corn is great and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmy947 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I would go to this if I wasn't already going to be at Lolla. It's only 3 hours away from me. Damn. If this is supposed to be the makeup date for the cancelled show back in November, they better be doing one in St. Louis too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have a hard time believing that White Lies will play. I just realised Foos are doing Lolla! On the twitter stream the Kanrocksas account retweeted someone saying they just saw Arcade Fire & The National and can't wait for the lineup for kanrocksas. Possibility of maybe those 2 as well?
