Earth Day Free Show Lineup

really sweet line-ups.. definitely pumped for that denver gig.

...what did miami do to deserve menudo?

i'll be at city park for sure in Denver. Menudo, what the fuck?

...baby loves salsa...

Why oh why isn't Umphrey's playing in Chitown? DC anyone? The best lineup is playing at a mall...

I'd kill for another Menudo tour! Add these guys to Rothbury! Makes a sick dish too!

too bad i cant make the trip down to DC...it would be worth it for haynes and umph for free and to moon the white house. that would be fun.

See you in DC!!! Talk about the BEST line up, and I'm seeing Mule the night before! WARREN

there are a ton more bands playing in chicago according to the green apple site.

bassnectar, eliot lipp, RJD2, rogue wave, the new pornographers, rev. horton heat, and tons of others

gmoo that's the national mall they are talking about not a shopping mall...I'm so excited for this

a nice addition to my weekend with umphreys in dc

NYC SHAFTED. No more umphs or bobby near grand central anymore, thats for sure.

Cool, free shows again. I just hope they don't trash the Chicago Zoo like they did last year, pretty sad that everyone got together on Earth Day and just made a mockery of it. On the other hand, the shows were decent.

Anyone know where to find the schedules? I think I'm gonna leave a festival early sunday to make it to DC and I don't want to miss anything good.

Well, i thought Chicago got screwed as far as the free show at the ZOO, but then i saw everyone else's (but DC) lineup. Did Washington DC win a contest or something? I mean, most of thier lineup could be headliners in just about all of the other cities. I love the free concert, but the chicago one is a TOTAL step down from last year. Maybe the promoters don't want 25000 people showing up like last year at the ZOO (those who were there know what I'm talking about). I think the DC free show may draw over 50000 people. On a side note, I don't know who this band "TOKIO HOTEL" is, but my 14 year old niece is making me take her to the show, and she listens to "boy-band" type stuff, so, anyone know what I should expect? please let me know, thanks.

danimal, jam fest in gore?

Man no UM in Chicago this year. I am sad. But the Chicago line up still looks killer and it is Free.

What is the national mall?

gonna be at umphreys in baltimore the night before... then i wake up to a sweet free all day fest in DC.

j-bizzle: those other musicians are playing at other venues in chicago that weekend. bassnectar and eliot lipp are playing the park west, but i think i'm gonna go see meat beat manifesto at the abbey. BUT i think the real heat is gonna be all the raves/dance parties going in chicago that weekend, eliot lipp is doing one of them! anyways i'm a bit disappointed in the chicago's lineup, especially with umph deciding to play elsewhere (i coulda swore they said they wanted to make it back this year...) but it's the zoo and free, hopefully we'll have good weather like last year, and i'll be able to check out derek trucks for myself... now i'm looking for some confirmation for these events. where'd this info come from?

gmoo, its the large strip of land in the middle of all the museums and monuments. They have the great american smoke out there and you can find many bums asking for change and playing a flute or something.

gmoo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Mall ....The National Mall (officially the National Mall & Memorial Parks) is an open-area national park in downtown Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States.

right brian - they just posted the free lineup, which is good for being free. the "around town" peformers, however, are where its at. Wish Kraftwerk was in milwookie a different weekend.

ooops that link popped up wrong. just google "wiki national mall" and you'll find it. chidodger i agree, i didn't know there was THAT many people there but the zoo was certainly packed.

i would recommend checking the website (http://www.greenapplemusicfestival.com) if one of these shows is happening near you.. like j-bizzle said there lots of other events happening throughout the cities during those weekends as well..

and gmoo - the nat'l mall is that long strip of monuments and uber-important gov't buildings in DC.. it includes the wash. monument, capitol building, etc.

Can we flip flop DC and NYC Line-ups, wtf, NYC is where it all began, give us something worth going to!!!!!

wish they showed the South East a little more love, somewhere between Atlanta and Nashville, preferably... Killer line ups in some places though

New York did get kind of screwed, but it's free, so who cares? Anyway Ricky and the Thunder is a hell of a consolation prize - they are going to kick ass!

DC is a killer lineup, I will be there, cuz it's free, and I love free awsome stuff.

all but dc did get boned on this one... but the capital should get a minifest occasionally. think of all the major 3 dayers all around the country this spring/summer and then figure, which ones are really in the midatlantic. no matter what city you're in, free is for me, so i agree w/ crazynate, jbizzle, and the muffinman. adubvu, see you in bmore then dc. yall have fun and recycle a magic hat for earth day!

hmmmha-I think we're going to treehugger ball at SSDD instead. I'd rather do 420jamfest or UM in PA then B-more then this, but my girlfriend had other ideas. I'm gonna get out of my tent Sun. morning and head straight for DC. Do we know each other?

At Least We got Kyle Orton, who loves to party. You can find pics of Kyle enjoying the chicago nightlife all over the place on the internet. I bet he'll fall off the stage while dancing to Dirty Dozen in a drunken rage. this could be the best fest all year. I hope he appears on the event poster at the top like he's a headliner or something. also, 25000 was just a big number I picked, but according to wikipedia, 40000 attended last year.

Did I see Menudo in Miami? NICE!!!!!! That is heady. WOW

I don't get how this works.(Talking about DC) Are all the bands playing at different times all weekend at different venues and that's it or are they all playing on the mall too.

As usual New York gets dicked. Relix wants to look cool so they hook up Dc and CHicago and sh-t in their own backyard

Man i wish I was in any of these cities for a free show but if I had to choose I'd go with DC

I'll be in DC. Not only did Chicago get dicked with the music, but Kyle Orton as the MC? What a slap in the face. I think Steve Bartman is the guest speaker.

thank god no pumphing mcguys in chicago. Kyle Orton guest MC? HAHAHAHA...

I got a thumbsdown for asking what the National Mall was?!?!?!? SORRY, ILL NEVER ASK A QUESTION AGAIN WHEN I DON'T KNOW SOMETHING.

Thanks to those who answered, I appreciate it :)

danimal-nope, dont know each other. however, were planning on doing the same thing on sunday from jamfest so i was just wondering. have fun wherever yall decide

Warren Haynes Solo Acoustic!!!!! Thats fucking badass, i love it when he does that, the live set from ROO, 2003 was absolutely fantastic, what a talented man.

hmmmha-I would really rather go to jamfest cuz my friend's band is playing it and I haven't gotten a chance to see them yet but my girl and all her friends want to see Bill Nershi's dumb ass (sorry, no disrespect if you're a cheese fan, but I don't really like him) at treehugger's and she's gonna be upset if I don't go. If you want I'll PM you my number and we could meet in DC.
