If you happen to follow City Weekly or myself (@AustenDiamond) on Twitter, you caught wind on Friday, May 18, that Nas will be headlining the July 19 show. Basically, I got the tip from Casey Jarman, series director, because I caught him at Living Traditions, and I’m a great guesser. After he acknowledged that The Don, Nasty Nas, would be headlining, he only laughed at me when I asked if Duran Duran would be the other headliner. One can only hope, right?
I’m just listing the two headline TBAs in this blog; the supporting artist TBAs for My Morning Jacket, Common and these two shows are still yet to be announced. To read the full lineup, go here; and to read two takes on the new $5 cover, go here.
