Virgin Fest once again lets you book the band

Virgin Fest once again lets you book the band

The folks behind this year’s Virgin Mobile Festival, set to take place between August 9 and 10 in Baltimore, Maryland, are once again putting the lineup in the fans’ hands - at least for the decision when it comes Saturday’s opener.

Virgin is once again running its “Book the Band” contest, an interactive vote that lets fans choose who will open the main stage. The five eligible bands are:

Obviously, if you were to put money on it, you’d think We Are Scientists or The Virgins would easily run away with this. But after last year’s vote, which saw Aiden upset the Cold War Kids, it seems anything is possible and perhaps that is why, as of right now, Hollywood Undead is in the lead.

Tickets for Virgin Mobile Festival 2008 are still available via ticketmaster.com.

  1. Virgins at Virgin fest!

  2. Make it happen.

  3. Ok!

  4. we are scientists. really good live, i suggest you vote for them.

  5. Yeah, We Are Scientists were amazing at South By Southwest a couple years ago.

  6. I’m willing to bet that Automatic Loveletter wins - based partially on the fact that Aiden won last year. Also, if you check back to my Bamboozle review, I saw a couple members of the band perform an acoustic set and didn’t think they were bad at all.

  7. Though I am not endorsing them!

  8. we are scientists are already booked for both days though

  9. It’s a 1PM set. They can still make their other shows.

  10. Parlor Mob rules!!!
