I totally agree - this is just a bunch of crap on principle alone. i could personally care less about the white stripes, but the fact that Attal and Co. are essentially going to pocket that amount (whatever it is), screw all the fans who probably made their decision to buy tix because of the band, and then not put a headlining type act in their place. F-ING WEAK! And Muse is not all that.

Yeah because the White Stripes will make 5X what any other artist makes...please. http://www.main-stageproductions.com/music Check out the pricing dumbass! Granted the Stripes aren't on here, but its a pretty good reference. There's no way they're banking more than the Foo Fighters @ $200K.

There needs to be a campaign to put someone else on the bill for ACL, otherwise Attal is scamming the public after using the White Stripes as their premier draw to sell tickets for 3 months. The only artist I can think of that could play a big stage and is not currently touring is Kanye West. So Attal come on pony up the 75-150K it costs to bring in Kanye, you were paying the Stripes that much, lets go. Don't let CS3 recoup sales lost on the Stubbs stage by screwing over ACL-ers! Bring Kanye to ACL Charles Attal! Save some face! You've brought him to Lollapalooza, so you have the connections!

Muse has a show in Dallas on the 16th. Doubt they'd cancel a sold out arena gig to do C3 a favor.

I'm more excited about Dr. Dog than I could have ever been for the White Stripes.
