In 2010, Center of Gravity had massive success with the Sun Fm Main Stage, thousands of people partied all weekend long to some of the hottest artists of the year. Faber Drive and Dragonette started the weekend off on Friday and it just kept getting better. Saturday we had Hip Hop’s OGs Naughty by Nature bringing their biggest 90’s anthems “Hip Hop Hooray” and “O.P.P”, and the weekend ended with a wild performance from Steve Aoki, who performed for a raging crowd of 5000 people!
The pressure is on now for 2011 to bring bigger and better musical entertainment. We have been working hard on trying to find the biggest names and hottest up-coming artists. We want to make sure we give you guys the best party of the summer! The following is a list of some of the names that we are seriously considering and we want your feedback.

DIPLO
GIRL TALK, A-TRAK, LUPE FIASCO, DAMIAN MARLEY, KID CUDI, FAR EAST MOVEMENT, ALL DAY!!!!! DID I MENTION GIRL TALK? GOOGLE HIM.
Too many DJs, in my opinion!
And why so few Rock contenders? That’s a bit disheartening…
Metric and The Strokes win the Rock vote, while MIA and NERD win the HipHop.. As for DJs, Skrillex and Datsik.
How about Death from Above 1979?
No way man. MIA isn’t even really hip hop, more like indie. And that’s not even alot of DJs, should listen to the fanbase and popularity. Too many Djs in the dubstep genre though and missing out the good ones.
KID CUDI! SKRILLEX (FOR ALL AGES PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE) and Chromeo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kid Cudi’s pretty lax most the time, not really as upbeat…
SKRILLEX, CALVIN HARRIS, FAR EAST MOVEMENT, LUPE FIASCO, FLO RIDA.
any from that line up would amazing for bands not on your list for Rock you should look at Hinder for the headliner, and Inward eye for the opener… the two of them togethet put on a great show!!!
skrilllllex and afrojack!
3OH3!!!!! most deffinatly
