Kanrocksas Music Festival
Awful, awful name, but it's a new music festival that runs August 5-6 at Kansas Speedway in KCK. Lineup includes Muse, Eminem, The Black Keys, The Flaming Lips, The Arctic Monkeys, A Perfect Circle, Kid Cudi, Girl Talk, Flogging Molly, Jack's Mannequin, and apparently there are more that they haven't yet announced.
$179/ticket ($159 early bird) and they go on sale tomorrow. Parking and camping are free. I figured it would be a much cheaper alternative to Outside Lands, which I was really considering going to. The lineup isn't as good, but I can deal with that since it's 20 miles from home. Anyone else interested? http://www.kanrocksas.com/ |

Any ideas on where the best place to drop off concert goers and pick them up later would be? I'm not going in, I just want to let them out somewhere close to where they need to be.

You can drop them off in Rocklahoma. There they can take the bus to Colorocko, then catch the train to Kanrocksas.

Wyondotte laws allow a white person to be off legends campus for 14 minutes before they are murdered and killed.

As someone who attended the first one, i spent that hot ass weekend at kansas speedway in 2011, i have a great memory of this show. i saw primus, the black keys, a perfect circle, muse, eminem, fitz and the tantrums, the flaming lips, and many more that i can't remember right now. it was a weekend of great music, the staff provided an excellent venue, and a great time was had by all. so needless to say i was pumped up, and ready to hear the 2013 line up. lets start with the first band they mention, fun. all i know about them is i heard them on SNL, and didn't like them. then it gets dicey as there are only a few bands i really like on this list. the avett brothers, edward sharpe and the magnetic zeros, and pretty lights are the only three bands i care to sit through. i'm let down yet again this week...

Terrible lineup. I'd rather make the trek out to Bonnaroo and spend the extra time and money.

My wife really likes the band Fun, so I may get stuck going to that. Hopefully she can get one of her sisters to go with, otherwise I think I'm investing in ear plugs.

you're gonna spend that much on one band? there's a few bands that i'm pretty fond of on there, but not for $175 per ticket. i'm going to wakarusa instead. better venue, the line up is better this year, and it gets me the hell out of town for a weekend.

If you like rap, then this lineup rules. Kendrick Lamar, Danny Brown, Killer Mike, and Action Bronson all on the same bill? That's exciting. Not to mention the R&B dynamo that is Miguel.

Might as well call it Pitchfork festival.

You'd spend more on gas driving to Wakarusa these days...

Enjoy beautiful Arkansas! If you pass through Fayetteville and need advice on where to eat/drink, let me know.

as for the gas to waka, well, we car pool, and it saves alot. if i have to choose, which i do, i'm choosing the woods of wakarusa over kanrocksas. had the bill been as good, in my opinion, as it was in 2011, i'd have no problem going to it instead.
