Hoping this is true but not holding my breath.

For all the indie people that don't think people will stay on Monday with Harper headlining, you are so wrong. I am no fan and would love to see something exciting added but the highest price I have seen scalpers getting for tickets in the 4 years I have been attending was the last time he played. The frat and sorority crown will be out in full effect to rep for BH just as they do for Matthews and Jack Johnson.

I hope you are right, because I want as good of a spot as I can at Explosions in the Sky. If 14,000 are watching Ben Harper, yee haw.
And for the record, Monday is the toughest day to sell out because it is a work day for Canadians, and the following day is a work day for all of us. Plus it is the same week as finals for some colleges in the area.
Also, Sasquatch 06 was probably the best lineup so far, although this year is better in my mind. The middle day of Sasquatch 06 was obviously going to be a hot ticket, especially with Flaming Lips opening for Ben Harper. I wonder which was a bigger draw? I believe the hail storm was billed higher than each though.

How long have they been on the playlist?
They'd be a fantastic late addition.

Thats really weird, I never noticed them on there before. That would be great though. I have been hoping for that for months now.
If they are added, I would think that they would be playing on Monday to push ticket sales. Where do you fit them? Could they play after EITS? That would kinda suck though since it would conflict with Chromeo. Unless there is going to be a late scratch from another band.

it's not out of the ordinary for them to add a band or two this late usually one band will cancel and another will get added but there have been plain late adds before too. Deerhoof would be a good add though and makes sense i don't think the playlist has had any bands who were not in the lineup.
