I think they forgot a reunited Beatles with Abe Lincoln on synth. Christ, the lower half of this lineup would sell out in a minute.

Yeah. We're there. Will get to see quite a few bands for the first time: Wolf Parade, the Shins, Okkervil, etc.

I had such an awesome time last year. This is really tempting me to try a repeat.

It's so far away from Newfoundland, but man, where else am I gonna find John Mayer (my girlfriend's favourite) with my favourites like New Pornographers, Wolf Parade and Explosions in the Sky?

I totally wanna win the lottery so that I could afford to go.

Chuck, it is a long trip, but totally worth it. I don't know if I'll be back this year, but I'm damn well going to try!

Plans for tonight: Read list again; die of raw envy. I will NOT be going for so many reasons, but congrats to those who do as it looks like an awesome gig.

Ho-lee shit. This is only like a few hours away from me but I don't think I can skip school for a concert for three days. Plus driving time. Goddamn it.

Though I like several of acts, this is the weakest lineup this fest has had, and that includes year 1 when it was only a 2 day festival.

so no one is excited about the second reunion this year of one of the most influential bands in music?

massive attack never gets any love. except from the people who went to coachella.
