Jesus Fucking Monkey Christ, Weenie, did you see the blurb about the Tom Robbins appearance? This sounds like one of the greatest things that will ever happen in my life.
“I've published eleven books, all of them written in or around Seattle. My idea is to read aloud the openings of each one of those books. In both content and style, these prefaces, introductions, or initial pages invoke the essence of the narratives that are to follow, yet are lively, provocative — and I believe entertaining — enough to stand alone. Thus, my appearance at Bumbershoot would provide a survey, a summation of sorts, of my life — literary and otherwise — in this damp thigh of the woods.”

I'm sure we haven't heard the last from them, considering Hardly Art keeps trying to reissue their discography.

I had a dream that Nine Inch Nails, R.E.M., and Conor Oberst were announced as the Bumbershoot headliners. That's weird.

NIN are playing everywhere in the U.S. except the PNW this Summer, so I am thinking they have some other plans for us, and Bumbershoot was my first guess. Bigger main stage too. Fingers crossed for NIN/Soundgarden at Bumbershoot.

I don't think NIN will be playing Bumbershoot. They've been pretty unorthodox about their headliner bookings the past few years, and aren't really paying out for artists of that status and cost.

Your logic saddens me. You don't think there will be bigger headliners now that they are going with the bigger main stage?
