Woah, I didn't realize Matt Groening had a good taste in music on top of making the best show ever (Futurama). Unfortunately I already know I won't be able to make it, but for everyone who can I'm sure The Residents/Ruins/the others will be fun.

Oh yeah, Groening's creds are fantastic. The Residents are no surprise here since long before he was known to the world Groening wrote one of the first short books on the eyeballed ones for the first Residents fanclub, W.E.I.R.D. He's also been a lifelong Zappa and Beefheart fan, but it's clear he's kept his earradar alive and active. Love to go to this, but just don't see it happening. Cry
