MHD Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 Call me old fashioned, but are these actual real-life bands? Never heard of them. Ever. Arctic Monkeys and Seasick Steve are British acts (though not my cup of tea). Rufus Wainwright is Canadian/American I believe. It was the same with me when Bonnaroo announced that Widespread Panic would close the festival...my reaction? WHO???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

croquet'n'cocaine Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Arctic Monkeys and Seasick Steve are British acts (though not my cup of tea). Seasick Steve is American, but it's true to say that he's most popular in the UK. Which is the sort of thing that happens quite often in both directions. e.g. Hendrix initially popular in UK; Tracey Ullman big in USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr E Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm sure Led Zep will win the live category but having been to see Seasick Steve I'd very much like him to win. He puts on a really good show, probably the most fun I've had at a concert. Good stomping heavy blues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxie Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Judging by the streak that RP/AK are on, I'm sure they will win in their category! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
