Toronto's Edgefest

[Cops]

anyone going? I really only want to see Rise Against and watch my girlfriend dress up and mosh other girls other then that it doesn't look like a good line-up.

[Kim]

Is this the thing that Singer said he was going to?? He called it woodstock. PIRATEZ PPL REPLY PLZ

[DoTheFandango]

Weezer is playing there I believe.

[Facetious]

i bet they will play beverly hills, quite possibly the worst song ever

[DoTheFandango]

It is a bad song. I know. I know.

And I bet they will play it, considering it just reached the upwards of 500,000 iTunes downloads.

Here's the line-up for Edgefest 2005:

Main Stage:
Killradio
Boy
Jakalope
Coheed and Cambria
Story of the Year
Rise Against
Alexisonfire
Billy Talent

Next Best Thing Stage:
The Junction
The Reason
Out of Your Mouth
Social Code
The Waking Eyes

Underground Operations Side Stage:
Brat Attack
Dead Letter Department
Hostage Life
Bombs Over Providence
Closet Monster

The only bands I like here are Billy Talent and Jakalope. A lot of my friends like Alexisonfire but I can't stand the screaming. The Waking Eyes sound pretty good, and Out of Your Mouth had that cover of Madonna's Music, but I haven't heard much else from them or any of the side stage acts. There have been much better line-ups in previous years.

I may be showing my age, but the Live 8 Barrie show seems more appealing to me.

[DoTheFandango]

Oh I see, they are playing the same venue a week later.

There are alot of Edgefests, I bet they played one along the way. (Google Edgefest)

I got drilled 10 feet by a beast of a man in an alexisonfire pit out on the lawns, edgefest was okay i liked rise against, billy talent, social code, brat attack and alexisonfire. I must say Rise Against doesn't sound half as good as they do on their cds though. My dad lives right across from Molson Park but I wasn't able to get any live 8 tickets for us.

Weezer is playing in Toronto but I decided it wasn't worth paying $150 for me and the girl to go see.

how was jakalope?

alexis on fire

annnd coheed and cambria are pretty cool. But there's too much screaming for me in most of that stuff :\

[Cops]

I heard the singer from Jakalope shake the speakers, she has an amazing voice at times. Coheed and Cambria played an amazing show they kept to songs like in keeping secrets of silence earth 3 and a favour house atlantic, the guitarist went into this insane solo with the guitar behind his neck.

I'd want to go only to see Jakalope (and plant my seed) and billy talent (no seed planting)

The lineup is ridiculously poor, they've been heading downhill for years.

[Adman]

agreed, those 2 you mentioned and Alexisonfire would be the only ones i'd stay for. But the girl from jakalope has an amazing voice, it's incredible.

Interesting Tidbit: Trent REznor of Nine Inch Nails fame played guitar and produced on some of her tracks.

alexisonfire is one of the worst bands recording music. I like every single song, until the lead singer yells at me (normally about 5 seconds in)
