Outside Lands Festival Schedule

Outside Lands Festival Radiohead Tom Petty Jack Johnson Lineup

While the folks at APE Concerts haven’t announced the schedule for the Outside Lands Festival [Update: full schedule now available here], most of the bands involved have which night they’re playing on their respective sites. So we did a little investigative journalism to cobble together a schedule.

According to their site, Radiohead is scheduled to headline the opening night of the three-day festival. Tom Petty’s site notes that they will play Saturday night, leaving MoR Jack Johnson to close out the festival on Sunday night

Does Outside Lands Actually Suck? [Another Outlands Post]

Haterade Outside Lands Festival

OK, we’ve given a lot of attention to the Outside Lands Festival in this here part of West Blogistan – The Stranger and Vague Panther have drooled over it several times – but I’m going to play devil’s advocate. What if the lineup is too narrow, too indie-rock intensive without enough goodies for those of us who like to branch out. Yeah, it’s got Radiohead, but it’s also got Jack Johnson and Tom Petty. Good artists, but if I’m paying nearly $300 after fees for a show, I want those two nowhere near it. Click here to read more
