    Rock in Rio, the world's biggest music festival, will take place over two weekends on May 26-27 and June 2-4, 2006, in Lisbon, Portugal and will feature electrifying live performances by some of the biggest names in music.

    11 artists will headline at Rock in Rio, including:


    26 May: Jamiroquai, Shakira
    27 May: The Darkness, Guns N' Roses
    2 June: Carlos Santana, Roger Waters
    3 June: Kasabian, Red Hot Chili Peppers
    4 June: Corinne Bailey Rae, Anastacia, Sting

    In 2006, Rock in Rio returns to Lisbon, the site of the 2004 festival. "The Bela Vista Park in Lisbon, due to its natural sloping terrain, is the ideal place for this great family party which is Rock in Rio," explains Roberto Medina, founder of the festival.

    Since its inception in 1985 through its most recent edition in 2004, Rock in Rio has brought us many unforgettable moments. In 2001, Queens of the Stone Age bassist Nick Oliveri performed naked. In 2004, a live microphone caught Britney Spears, America's Sweetheart, cursing backstage.

    Don't miss music history in the making, beginning May 26 at 7PM ET, only on Network LIVE!

    I'd probably watch it, if there were any good bands playing.

    Jamiroquai - probably a pretty good show
    Shakira - lip syncing?
    The Darkness - passing fad
    Guns N' Roses - Axle is fat and bald
    Carlos Santana - good if he plays his old stuff
    Roger Waters - eh...
    Kasabian - never heard of them
    Red Hot Chili Peppers - a shadow of their former selves
    Corinne Bailey Rae - ?????
    Anastacia - lip syncing
    Sting - way past his prime

    I've always respected your musical tastes ima, but you're being a f'n 'tard on this one. If you don't like GNR or Axl's music for whatever reason, don't dole it on his physical shape. Which, incidentally, is untrue. He's in fantastic shape currently.

    I am guessing there is more than one stage, so as soon as the first band is finished they go to the other stage for the next act.

    That's the way it worked last night anyway.

    Pretty stupid to call it Rock in Rio if they moved it to Portugal, a half a world away from Rio.

    Man, Justin Hawkins squeeling like a girl this entire show.

    He just doesn't have the range of someone that can hit those notes like a Geoff Tate.

    Axl stopped being a hero to me the moment he got beat up by Tommy Hilfiger.
