Seattle Times
Bumbershoot added some big names to its 2009 lineup today, with the addition of popular rock bands the Ting Tings, the All-American Rejects and U.S.E., and singer-songwriter Brett Dennen. All those acts have had sold-out or well-attended recent concerts in Seattle, particularly the Brit duo the Tings Tings, who played one of the first concerts at the recently reopened nightclub the Crocodile, in an April 12 show that sold out just minutes after it was announced.
