I have to go to Skate And Surf this year. While several other bands hinted at their inclusion at the festival and a few had confirmed, an e-mail sent out to subscribers early this morning dropped a lot of big names. I wanted to go for Saves The Day and Glassjaw, but now you throw in the major names of A Day To Remember, Macklemore, and – my personal favorite – RX Bandits?

You can see the image with the lineup of all those we know so far after the jump (Andrew WK solo performance included). The festival still insinuates more to come, as they are still dropping hints, but the image doesn’t say “and more” now. Who knows, maybe someone even bigger will drop a bomb on us. For now, I’m just happy that I’ll get to catch up-and-comers like Hostage Calm at the same place I can see RX Bandits do their first American performance in years.

I finished school with a music theory degree. Before I finished school, I was a janitor. You really should apologize to all the janitors you've ever had. You hurt them. Seriously. You did.

But, now that we've cleared that up and you called your high school janitor, know that I quit being a janitor to pursue writing about music. So here I am, and here you are, and hey how are you?
