Tag 'em and bag 'em! I would expect them to play the second weekend, perhaps in Thursday headlining role Wilco occupied this year. Aren't the guys rumored to play Memphis in May? If so, the second weekend makes more sense.

Yeah, I'd expect to see them headline Acura and that Wilco spot makes sense. They'd be a great Friday headliner, though. Or Saturday. Or Sunday.  :D

Full lineup due at midnight (CT, I believe). We should know which weekend then.

Crap. Full lineup is out, but not broken down by weekend yet. I don't think I'm going to do both weekends this year, so we shall see...

There MUST be! Nothing will stand between me and tickets to that after having to stand outside of Pres. Hall in 2010 trying to listen thru cracks in the doors  ;D

Hopefully PHJB and Yim will have collaborative sets like Voodoo too! Good times to be had in April, good times indeed :)

I think we're due another headliner (or two). Rumor all day has been the special announcement (which never came) is Bruce.

I do too. It's kind of strange to have Trombone Shorty in the number one spot I think.

Supposedly Bruce isn't playing any gigs till he plays the European shows so I kept reading he was OUT, but who knows! This is part of the fun of it! I'd love to take the week off and do both weekends...but I gotta go with the MMJ, Steve Earle, Eagles weekend..(yes EAGLES!)

Oh, and there's a TBA on first weekend, but given the lineup placement and Tom Petty that weekend, I doubt it's Bruce.

It's so nice of the band to re-pay me for flying around the country to see them by playing a block from my apartment.  ;)

I was thinking Radiohead...based on the rumors, but I'm not sure that we have Radiohead money.

See everyone there! I think Beale Street in Memphis is happening as well so schedule accordingly!

Also, please post if you hear anything about a show at Pres Hall the evening of the Jazz Fest show - still bummed I missed out on this last time!
