Who Would Pick For Your Own Personal Gig?
 

Who Would Pick For Your Own Personal Festival?

The idea is you pick 10 Iconic/Well Known bands (Who you like!) to put on the main stage. Then 5 of your favorite new bands to go on the second stage. Oh yeah and give your festival a name. You can put any band (dead or alive) anywhere on the bill but always put the Last acts at the top going down till you get to the opening act. This is mine:

LuLu-stock!

Main Stage:
The Beatles
Brian Wilson
The Rolling Stones
The White Stripes
The Libertines
Oasis
Franz Ferdinand
The Strokes
Coldplay
Green Day

Second Stage:
The Cribs
Nine Black Alps
We Are Scientist
Arctic Monkeys
Babyshambles

P.S. Where would you have your Festival?

Main Stage

it would be a freakin miracle if anyone made it out of that concert alive
It would also be in a fairly accessable park somewhere on a flat meadow style land so the seeing the acts would be free with merchandise/food going to the artists.
i also left a bunch of political orientated bands out as they just wouldnt fit the bill.

Your concerts are too big. You need less bands and more time for each band.

On a large, revolving stage, I'd have the following acts. Each would do a jam, and then the stage revolves...

Allman Bros (with Duane, of course)
Jimi Hendrix

Stage 2. Small venue. Coffee House. 150 max.
Beatles (Revolver, Sgt. Pepper)
Neil Young
Bob Dylan
John Denver

I would definately have Sonic Death Monkeys and Barrytown as the opening acts, and once the crowd is warmed up, bring out Stillwater and Spinal Tap.

I dunno about anyone else, but mine would take place over a long period of time, every band would get at least a 2 hour set... that would kick ass.
