I hear the show was amazing, and well worth the drive. New jacks like Wale, Blue Scholars, Kidz In The Hall, Jay Electronica, and B.o.B are all on the bill this year, thankfully giving Hip-Hop heads something new to bop to. Hopefully next year's show will have some real surprises headlining, not just doing guest appearances that you might have missed if you were hitting up the bathrooms or buying expensive water. If you guys are running out of ideas for possible acts for next year, let me throw you a few suggestions to mill over!
Q.Rock639's Rock The Bells Wish List
Public Enemy: must have group at any outdoor festival and welcome return to RTB!
George Clinton: Parliment/Funkadelic: Why not?
System Of A Down: If you are gonna rock out with your Flava Flav clocks out, like the 2007 Rage Against The Machine bill, try to get these guys!
LL Cool J: Why is the man who made the song that your festival is named after, not on the bill? Make it happen!
RUN D.M.C: Do I have to break it down to you why these guys need to be here? At least in NY & LA!

Webslinging-Random notes from the web
What Do You Know Anyway?
Found this article over at The Huffington Post, which points out that the presidential race is still anyone's game! They note the changing tide toward Obama in swing states that we thought would go against him.
"Nobody Knows Anything"-Marta Evry---The Huffington Post
Excerpt:
In a Northern Virginia Starbucks tucked snugly away in a featureless shopping center not far from Washington D.C., a man, once solid, but now thickening in late middle age, looks around furtively, almost warily, before he leans in to his companions, and says, loud enough for me to overhear,
"This country will never elect a black man president." The two middle-age women, one stylish in a pink silk t-shirt, Cartier watch and diamond rings, the other older and frumpier in a "Cougars for Hillary" sweatshirt, nod knowingly. The older woman sighs, "He's too young. He has no experience." The younger woman shakes her head in agreement, "I can't bring myself to vote for McCain though."
