AUGUST 16-17:Perry Farrell's circus returns with its best lineup in nine years, although more diversity wouldn't hurt.

The fest also includes Modest Mouse and Sonic Youth (best- and worst-album-of-the-year contenders, respectively), his/her majesties Morrissey and PJ Harvey, space cadets Flaming Lips and Polyphonic Spree, Brit-rock hype jobs Gomez and BRMC, as well as likely smoking buddies Le Tigre and String Cheese Incident.
