    Man that’s a lot of band. Actually that’s a lot of bands i haven’t heard. Still it’s sure to be good. The only query I have is WTF is with Offspring playing? . I thought this band had died off after the release of their terrible Splinter album. It would be interesting to see how they are going to play live, as i dont think they’ve even had real drummer for the last 2 albums. Maybe they’ll just have a synthesizer robot banging out the beats for them.
