@JADEDPUNKHULK, the new Twitter sensation among the strange, the slow, and the old, will be delivering several spoken-word performances at this year's Fest. The cynical green giant had this to say:

HULK PROUD TO TALK AT FEST. HULK ALWAYS WANT TO GO BUT MONEY TIGHT. NOW HULK COME AND DELIVER BRUTAL TRUTH TO PUNKS. YOU WOULD LIKE HULK WHEN HULK FESTING.

While schedule details are still being worked out, we are currently hearing that Hulk will close out each night of the festival with a two-hour set at the Florida Theater of Gainesville, a somewhat unprecedented move. A source close to the Fest, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said that "We really think that Hulk has too much to say to be confined to one performance, or even one day. It's important, and it's probably the most important performer we've ever had. Besides, no other venue could really hold him. Got it? Good. But don't publish my name, bands might get sad to hear that [Tony] said that."

The 11th annual Fest will take place this October in Gainesville, Florida.
