Maybe the Incredible Kid will salvage the dance tent. actually at around 16.30 into that stream (yes, I listened that far in) they announced the track as by Anjali & the kid, so I'm thinking that was the Incredible Kid too.

Yeah I really wish there was a way that I did not have to pay that much money for beers. I have done it before but only here and there because that adds up really fast. I've said it before and I'll say it again; smuggle beer in. Take the coldest beers you have, wrap a few in a blanket, throw a few in random pockets in your bag and get guys in your group to tape mickeys (pints, flasks, whatever you want to call them) to the inside if their leg. My group normally has about a 50-75% success with beer and 100% with the liquor taped to the leg method. Worst case they find some of the beers and take them. Totally worth the risk when the price of beer goes up about 10x inside the festival. I have never heard of anyone getting any sort of trouble for trying to sneak beers in, so you mid as well give it a shot. (though I assume no responsibility if they change their tune this year and try to kick you out)

Paul F. Tompkins against GBV??? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.
GAYNGS vs. Flaming Lips??? GET THE FUCK OUT
Thermals, Antlers, and Iron & Wine - WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME???
Meanwhile, who do i have to sit through to be as far away from City and Colour as possible? Black Joe Who gives a fuck? or Christ Loving Kids?
Otherwise it's fine. Though I did actually want to see death cab, but I guess I'll miss them due to seeing Show Me Love, Sleigh Bells, and Bassnectar.

The website schedule isn't very good for comparing bands that you picked to see. Could some one make an excel sheet for this year?

I'm only on page 2 of this thread, but I'm going to go ahead and say 2 things, to be deleted as soon as I see that someone else has said them.
A. Though initially I thought it was dumb to have all the stages open on Friday, it kinda makes sense. Mariachi El Bronx might be a good way for the Yeti Stage crew to get warmed up for the coming weekend. I mean nobody gives a fuck if technical difficulties happen during THAT set right? Good practice. Plus it saves having to wait for long set-ups if everything were on one stage. Kinda feel sorry for those Rival Schools dudes for having to know they're fucking OPENING FOR BIFFY CLYRO!
B. WAY TO GO SASQUATCH for making a visually logical schedule format instead of the silly list format they had before. We should all rejoice in the fact that we don't have to make our own charts. (I say this as if I'm going. It's really sad. I'm even going as far as planning what my schedule would be if I were to go.)

I don't get the one band on Yeti stage. There isn't a band playing on the mainstage at the same time. Either there will be adds or I am stumped.

And now I'm a little glad I'm not going, the conflict of Guided By Voices (HOW ARE THEY STILL SOFA KING EARLY IN THE DAY!) and Paul F. Tompkins is akin to the tragedy of Pavement vs. Dirty Projectors last year (I call safety on Pavement insults).
Thank the lord that I got my Paul F. Tompkins group to hit 300.

GBV has an hour-long set on the main stage, which is a LOT better than I thought we'd get. An hour isn't much, but that's enough time for like eleventy-two GBV songs, and I'm REALLY happy they got moved to the main stage. Ha...eleventy two! 3:45pm is a good drunk hour as well! Thanks for satisfying my curiosity. Enjoy it! Put into context, this would make me feel a lot better about this if I were going.

If I survive Saturday it will be a miracle. Washed Out < Matt & Kim < The Glitch Mob < Robyn < Sleigh Bells < Bassnectar Ahhhh yeah! That 45 minute nap during Washed Out will be key for keeping you charged throughout the rest of the day.

That 45 minute nap during Washed Out will be key for keeping you charged throughout the rest of the day. I wouldn't necessarily call it a nap. I really enjoy washed out actually. But it will definitely be the most "mellow" time for me on saturday, that's for sure.

Also, if I were going, the Biffy Clyro set with all you guys followed by 4 hours of drinking with you guys then reliving high school by drunkenly singing "Monkey Wrench" and "Learn to Fly" with you guys would possibly make Friday my favorite.

Is Washed Out that 'chillwave' the kids are speaking of? I heard one track and it was, I don't know, it was a song I guess.

(I say this as if I'm going. It's really sad. I'm even going as far as planning what my schedule would be if I were to go.) True it is visually logical when just browsing over it, but making your own schedule online sucks. You have to go to every band page to click add to schedule. Then once you add it to your schedule it is again just a list. That is why I really need some one to make the excel sheet! I am calling upon all you excel wizards to work your magic and make me a super schedule.
