Who wants to go to Jersey? The All Points West Music and Arts Festival will be coming back to the Garden State this year with an even better lineup than last year's inaugural version. Beginning Friday, July 31st, the three day event will feature the Beastie Boys, Tool and Coldplay as the nightly headliners, respectively. The concert will be held in Jersey City's Liberty State Park, which features views of Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.Among the other performers are Echo and the Bunnymen, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, MGMT, Arctic Monkeys, My Bloody Valentine, Gogol Bordello, Vampire Weekend and the Black Keys. And, among the other logistic improvements, fans will be allowed to order seven beers -- two more than last year -- and drink them in areas where they can actually see the stage. Tickets, running $89 for single day passes and $199 for the whole weekend, go on sale Friday.

All Points West is the worst festival i have ever been too, so no matter who is playing, it really isn't worth the hassle. It's a day of queueing. Of not allowing alcohol in any area you can see the screens or stage, and ultimately the most boring crowd ever. Don't go.
