2009 Rock The Bells Festival Series ( Lineup Announced )

Posted on April 9, 2009 |

The Lineup for the 2009 Rock The Bells Festival series was announced
yesterday.

Nothing could beat last year’s unbelievably sick roster of ‘ol schoolers
(A Tribe Called Quest, Rakim, De La Soul, The Pharcyde … etc) but, some
names on this year’s list do pop out like The Roots, Nas, KRS-One, House Of Pain,
Slum Village.

Fun should be had by all but not here. Once again, the only Canadian dates
on this tour are for Toronto and Vancouver. Montrealers = shit out of luck.
A drive down the 401 will be in order to enjoy the festivities.

The whole shindig will be hosted by KRS-One, Supernatural, Murs, and Pete Rock.

The Lineup (with more to be announced and apparently some surprise performances)

Nas & Damian Marley, The Roots, Common, Big Boi, KRS-One, House of Pain,
Reflection Eternal, Tech N9ne, K’naan, RZA, Raekwon, Sage Francis,
M.O.P., Slaughterhouse, Eyedea & Abilities, Necro, Slum Village,
Evidence & The Alchemist, Tech N9ne, Chali 2na, Psycho Realm,
Mystic Journeymen, Buckshot, Mickey Factz, B. Dolan, and Tabi Boney.

Cities on the itinerary:

Chicago, Toronto, Washington, D.C., Boston, New York City, Denver,
Los Angeles, San Fransisco, Miami and Vancouver.
