It's Broken Bells, and in my opinion there are only like 1 or 2 tracks I'd like to hear from that album, so I'm not sure they could fill the mainstage shoes of BSS from last year. They wouldn't fill the mainstage shoes just because there are only 1 or 2 songs that you like? I think there are plenty of people that disagree. The album was highly successful. You might be right though as far as being as prominent as Broken Social Scene. I definately think they belong on the mainstage though. |

That Broken Bells record went over like a turd in a punchbowl, with just about everyone. Uninspired songwriting from Mercer, lazy production from Danger Mouse -- two people who know how much their names are worth. Phoning it in. Big time.

I agree that the Broken Bells record was pretty uninspired and not challenging at all, however, a lot of people bought that record and it wouldn't be surprising to see them at Sasquatch! on the main stage if they are still touring behind the record. Of course whether they show up will probably depend on how much money Live Nation throws at them.

Adam Snacks won't be able to help himself. Broken Bells will be there and they will play at 5:35 on the main stage.

Fine. Sub in Pulp, then, if there is a god. I'm on topic now, switch, you little bastard. Does that make everything A-OK? Pulp is at Primavera and then is scheduled June 11 at Isle of wright festival, I can't see them making a flight back and forth for one tour date, but who knows. |

Updated Pulp as unlikely, and Belle and sebastian as sub headliner who may headline.
Very interesting on Belle & sebastian. they are playing Primavera, and were supposed to be playing Jun 3 In what looks to be Denmark, but that show has been cancelled due to "stuarts illness", and to be rescheduled at a belt sander date, but they are playing like 15 dates before that show.
so that looks to be highly suspicious.

I'm by no means saying they won't be there, just not sure that slot would be the fit I would see. The album is completely overrated though, as HG (or whatever he is calling himself today) said. |

I think it's a decent album, but what do I know, as HG has said numerous times. I wouldn't mind seeing them but I would definately rather see the Shins. I would take either one though.

I'm glad someone finally lets me have an opinion without telling me that I am a worthless piece of shit that doesn't know anything.

You should probably learn not to take it so personally.
