Looks like "alternative" music festival Field Day Fest is happening at Giants Stadium, at least according to Ticketmaster. Gothamist thinks it's funny how last weekend, Giants Stadium held Zootopia, the pop-hit heavy concert thrown by Z100 that had, according to their site, "Aerosmith, Kelly Clarkson, TLC, Mariah Carey, Ja Rule, Ashanti, Jewel, Third Eye Blind, Wayne Wonder, Simple Plan, Tanto Metro & Devonte, Daniel Bedingfield, JC Chasez, Bowling For Soup, Ginuwine... your American Idol's Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken, PLUS special guest-hosts BRITNEY SPEARS and LISA MARIE PRESLEY!"
Having Field Day at Giants Stadium would put a crimp into any camping plans.
Update: A reader who was going to shoot the event got this
Field Day Music Festival (Sat-Sun): 2 Day Pass (No Camping)Enterprise Park At Calverton, Calverton, NY**THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED**Any tickets purchased by Ticketmaster Charge-By-Phone or Ticketmaster.com will be automatically credited back to the card used to order them. All tickets purchased at the box office or a Ticketmaster Ticket Center must be returned to the point of purchase to receive a refund.
So, if you're going, you need to buy new tickets for the Giants Stadium. Nice work, Dreskin!
Sidebar: While looking to see if MTV had updated Field Day Fest information, this headline caught Gothamist's eye: Who Is Ariel Sharon?. As it turns out, it's a primer for MTV's audience to learn more about the world. But it's a very, very good question.
