Weezer, the Cure and Flaming Lips Headline Riot Fest
Last week, Riot Fest announced a tentative lineup for its Toronto stop. Now they've unveiled the lineups for all three stops.
As we approach the 10th year of the annual music festival, anticipation has been high, especially since the newly reunited Replacements headlined last year. This year's three fests -- in Toronto, Chicago and Denver -- are filled with big names.
The Riot Fest & Carnival at Humboldt Park in Chicago runs Sept. 12-14, Riot Fest & Sideshow at May Farms in Denver runs Sept. 19-21 and Riot Fest & Expo at Downsview Park in Toronto runs Sept. 6 and 7.
