ACL 2012 Announced: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Neil Young, and a Ton More

The Austin City Limits Music Festival line-up was announced at midnight and some die-hards are mad that the Red Hot Chili Peppers are billed above Neil Young. Really? Who is the more relevant act?  Beyond that, your gonna get exactly what ACL is famous for and always seems to deliver. At the top of the list is The Black keys and Jack White. Then there's some acts I barely know , AVICII, who is possibly the "new" Skrillex? Then you have Gary Clark Jr. who has more songs than he does fans! Don't forget the one-hit wonder Gotye, and then the mixed melting pot of emerging artists towards the end that are far more interesting  like Zola Jesus, Father John Misty and Big K.R.I.T..
