The lineup for the annual Bridge School Benefit was just leaked on a local radio station and Consequence of Sound was quick to pick up the story. As expected, Pearl Jam is making an appearance but it’s remarkably over-shadowed in a way by the likes of Buffalo Springfirled and Billy Idol on day one and Modest Mouse and Grizzly Bear both appearing at each day. What an eclectic mix. The two-day event will be held at Shoreline Ampitheater in Mountain View, CA on October 23-24, 2010.
Here’s the two-day lineup of artists announced already:
Saturday:
Buffalo Springfield
Pearl Jam
Elvis Costello
Merle Haggard and Kris Kristofferson
Lucinda Williams
Billy Idol
Jackson Browne and David Lindley
Modest Mouse
Grizzly Bear
Sunday:
Buffalo Springfield
Pearl Jam
T-Bone Burnett’s Speaking Clock Revue featuring Elton John, Leon Russell, Elvis Costello, Ralph Stanley, Neko Case and Jeff Bridges
Elvis Costello
Merle Haggard and Kris Kristofferson
Modest Mouse
Grizzly Bear
I’ve never heard a bad word spoken about this annual event and I’d love to have someone on site to cover the action for us this year. If you plan on going, drop me a note.
