Yup.

2012 Rock the Bells Lineup [News]

Lots of speculation as to if this years show will be worth the (likely) moderate amounts of cash and time. Personally, if you ask me, I think so. Unless they do something stupid like really screw up the stage times, make idiotic lineups on separate days to force cash out your pockets and ban stuff like backpacks, purses, and other festival necessities (I'm talking to YOU San Bernardino). It already sucks that some of these artists won't be hitting the stage at all locations but I guess we'll have to wait and see...
