I am pretty sure that, six or seven years ago, Smash Mouth had no clue they would soon be on the bill with Styx, REO Speedwagon, Twisted Sister, and Judas Priest. ROCK FEST!

Rick Springfield and Colin Hay, together at last! Only the Taste of Minnesota could pull off such a monumental pairing. Who could it be now? Why, Jessie's Girl, of course.
As for ROCK FEST, that may be the oddest combination of acts I've ever seen. Counting Crows and the Priest! Allman Brothers and Twisted Sister! And, well, REO and Styx, who I believe actually put out a live album together. You can't go wrong here. Fuck Coachella. Fuck ACL. ROCK FEST!!! I wonder if Str8 can hook me up?
