If this "unproven headliners" rumor is true, I don't think we could count Sonic Youth in

Don't talk about bubble-bursting until the official lineup is out and you have transitioned from "random dude with a posting history in the single digits talking about his mysteriously connected friend" to "credible source to whom we can look for information in the future." |

I feel like I've made the big time with insterstateeight responding! I don't give a shit if any of you believe any of what I say, but it's nuts to take "unproven" and "not US" from my post and act as if that's fact but not take my concrete confirmations (no Arcade Fire and Pavement not headlining), too. If you're going to pick and chose what to believe, why not at least take the things my source was willing to be explicit about instead of his abstract and hard-to-define hints?
I already apologized for not having more information or more evidence so if you feel the need to criticize my willingness to not fuck over a friend just for props from a message board community, refer to that.
I'm not in the business of sidetracking threads, so I'll include one more hint that my source gave me that makes no sense to me. I fear he might just be pulling my leg with this one. But, hell, why not.
"Those looking forward to the band Pavement leads into probably won't want Sunday to come slow."
Is that even a hint? Maybe that Pavement is on Sunday not Monday...

I look at it like this. With no credentials, names, etc., nobody will believe you until you prove that you're a credible source. This isn't a shot at you, it's just how the world works. I could send in hundreds of tips to CoS saying that I spoke to the lead singer of Band X about headlining Sasquatch, but unless they can trust that the info is accurate they won't print it. Same thing here. Nobody's giving you shit, but at the same time you can't expect people to take your word as gospel just because you say you've got a source.

come slow is a reference to a Massive Attack Song...Saturday Come Slow off of their new album Heglioland.

so has it been determined whether they are going to announce names throughout the night or wait until exactly midnight?

Pavement leading into Massive Attack seems a little disjointed, or am I reading that wrong?

No, that's what's being suggested, Pavement then Massive Attack. Verrrry interesting choice.

I would see it more likely that they announce each day individually between sets saving the 3 headliners for the very end of the night.

I wish you were right, but I think more likely is announcing by stage, or having the bands announce between songs.

I guess we will see if emstack is right about what he said in a couple of hours, No arcade fire, no soundgarden , pavement no headlining, a non us band after pavement and Massive attack a possibility. We will have to wait and see.

interestingly, Damon Albarn does the vocals to that Massive Attack song.

Like I say, I'm not expecting anybody to trust me or believe me. But I can't just keep apologizing. And I still don't get how nobody else thinks it's weird that a number of posters decided to only believe the hints my source gave and not the concrete facts. It just doesn't make much sense to only pick and choose from a particular rumor-monger's info, don't you think? If he's right about the hints, he's probably definitely right about the facts.
But whatever. Believe what you want I suppose. It's just a little weird.
