No, it doesn't, because I've never seen this website before, and apparently, neither have many of you. I'm not saying it's wrong, because there's still the possibility that Arcade Fire is, in fact, a headliner, but it in no way "confirms" anything.

The strange thing about the listing of tour dates is there are a lot of dates in europe that haven't been confirmed any where else, it is almost like they released AF tour schedule before anybody else. It seems too specific to be a fake.
We just have to wait for some of the other dates to be officially announced( which should be soon) and we will know if it is real or not.
In the mean time I will put them as expected.

Well for what its worth, its a confirmation in my eyes. When I went to their show at the Henry Miller Memorial Library, they said they were in talks to play. I didn't say anything, because I had a similar confirmation with Cut Copy, but that didn't work out. Nothing is truly confirmed until the release party, but I'd imagine that AF will be there.

My concern with the excitement about this is that you're going from this:

to this:

when that second point should be addressed first, followed by an appropriate reconsideration of the first point.

Well I sent an email to the people at concertful.com to ask where they get their information. It was very pleasantly worded, and non-specific. So hopefully they answer me.
The specificity is promising to me, and for now it seems like a website that just jumped the gun, not realizing they weren't supposed to publish dates yet. But there's always the chance that a random user added the date or something. Hopefully I'll find out.

Excellent solution, drew. I'm not holding my breath for any useful response, but please post what you get back no matter what.

Yeah me neither, but we'll see.
AFs website does list the Chicago, Germany and Austria dates that are on concertful.com, but not the Italy, Spain, etc.

Did some further investigating and both Spain and Italy dates are part of Festivals as well. Makes sense why their not listed yet.

Someone could email Arcade Fire's email if they wanted. Someone on the bonaroo board did that in december and they got an email back saying something like "We'll probably play Coachella, and maybe a couple of other festivals." They seem pretty willing to give out the info.

Arcade Fire and Foo Dr. Garbanzohters... The other two headliners had better not suck such huge, obvious balls.

It's weird, in any other case I'd be excited by Arcade Fire, but since Coachella already has 'em, it's just like, "meh."

I've never seen Arcade Fire, and I'm really really really excited. I remember listening to a lot of songs on Suburbs and thinking, man this is going to be sick live.
I think the excitement will mount as we get closer.
