Not a bad lineup of artists, but i'm taking a look at who some of the other provinces get and it looks like we got jipped (sp?) a few artists.
BC gets The Roots, Broken Social Scene, Metric, Sonic Youth, Jarvis Cocker, De la soul (good times de la soul, good times!), and K-OS
Alberta gets Pearl Jam, Arkells, Billy Talent.
Why no Metric love in Ontario (Emily? is it that restraining order thing again?)
