I don't believe they've really been discussed! Nice find! I've never heard of them though. You guys are so cute. Wild Flag was the first rumored band on the blog two months ago. Everyone high five the new guy who is n.ow confirming them. Hahaha. EDIT: To add missed quotes: Since Wild Flag is going to be there, when do we start talking about Fred Armisen in the comedy tent? For those of you reading this who aren't attending Coachella, Wild Flag will be at Sasquatch, and M. Ward will likely be there.

You get a gold star! I suppose I just don't commit shit like that to memory when it isn't a band I have heard of or listened to before.
Regardless, this is the first solid confirmation based on something other than tour dates since DRAGON BOY SUEDE WHICH WAS CONFIRMED ON THE WHO CHARTED PODCAST.

Wild Flag and Dragon Boy Suede? I'm already starting to feel pretty good about Sasquatch. Wild Flag was one of those I was hoping to come from Coachella. Man. Thursday, right?

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah will be there: Passion Pit will not: I should also mention that Kaiser Chiefs, Stars, and Family of the Year will all not be there, as confirmed by their booking agents or managers.

My buddy and I did this one year to figure out who was at Coachella. We said we were with U of Montana Student Activities Board and looking for a band for our spring festival on the Coachella dates, and would they be available? We got a remarkable amount of replies. That's how we found out Go! Team was coming.
I haven't had the energy to do that since then, but if new guy wants to, I'm all for it.
Next to check: Pulp

What I've learned today: When trying to subtly hint at something, always use ellipses.

Sleigh Bells won't be back this year: Fun note, I've dealt with Sam Kirby before when buying shows; she doesn't give away info a lot. I don't believe they've really been discussed! Nice find! I've never heard of them though. Its the band that the chick from Portlandia is in. The chick from Portlandia? You couldn't go with Carrie from Sleater-Kinney?

I wonder if the booking people ever talk to one another. Thanks gabfrab for doing this though! It's funny how we've gotten the most amount of rumors within the last week.

Took a little nap and woke up to some new emails. Unfortunately no good news. The following bands will not be there:
The Aquabats CSS Sufjan Stevens Holy Ghost!
In the realm of good news, I was congratulated on my fictional newborn baby that caused me to miss so many shows last year.
