All Points West 2008 Initial Lineup

By Alex Young on February 21st, 2008 in Festival News/Rumor, News


All Points West is the latest music festival to announce their 2008 lineup today. The Jersey City festival takes place between August 8-10, 2008.

Radiohead is headlining Friday and Saturday. Jack Johnson on Sunday.

Tickets go on sale Friday, February 29 via Ticketmaster.

And boy… are they pricey…

Tickets for ALL POINTS WEST go on sale Friday, February 29 at 12 Noon (ET) via www.ticketmaster.com only. Single day passes are $89 and three-day passes are $258. A portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit “Friends of Liberty State Park.” The Friends of Liberty State Park is an open space advocacy volunteer organization dedicated to the park’s future as a free, green and non-commercial, urban waterfront oasis.

Update: After giving the lineup a further look, it’s certainly a bit underwhelming. And this lineĀ  from the press release bugs me a bit…

More than 40 acts will appear on three stages throughout the 80-acre historic location with panoramic views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and the Manhattan skyline.

40 acts? Over the course of three days and three stages? That pretty much means four bands per stage per day. Something about that just doesn’t seem right. Especially for the price.
