Langerado has announced their line-up for their 2008 festival, taking place March 6-9, and it looks pretty badass. Amongst many other artists, some of the highlights (for me, at least) include Beastie Boys, Thievery Corporation, Gov't Mule, Medeski Scofield Martin and Wood, Les Claypool, Umphrey's McGee, The Disco Biscuits, and Keller Williams. I'm disappointed by the lack of Trey Anastasio appearance, but I'll just have to deal with it.
Admittedly, it seems they're falling victim to a bit of an "identity crisis," as is very easy to do with an established music festival that keeps trying to out-do itself from the previous year. I can't help but scratch my head and wonder "what's with the hip-hop artists?," not that I'm complaining, of course.
Another item to note is that it will be held in the Big Cypress Seminole Indian Reservation, leaving its previous home of Markham Park in Sunrise. I don't think it'll make much of a difference for those of us in Miami as far as the commute goes. Personally, it'll be cool to check out the place where Phish held one of its festivals, leading to the biggest traffic jam the country has ever seen.
