ooohhhhh Maggie...Eddie Vedder was just added to the line up  :thumbsup:  :)

He's playing my favorite day of the fest...Thursday...perfect!!  Scheduling Friday off now.  With any luck, KDTU will have a late night gig that night/morning at Tip's again this year.

That keeps me at home.   ;D

;D

I wouldn't be home if that happened (and I'm hearing now that he's not very likely), but I would probably be at a different stage.

I will die if it's prince and come close to death if its springsteen. The problem is though, that more big names = more conflict

as soon as i heard the eddie vedder news, i knew a friend we are trying to confirm (and help make the trip more affordable by sharing our room) was a shoe-in to go .. she's the biggest eddie fan i've ever met.

still haven't booked airfare yet and i'm getting frustrated with it ... the cheaper prices (which are still $$$$$ .. today it's like $400) are the worst flight times EVER .. like get in after midnight and depart at 5:30, both with connections. or pay close to $600 for good flight times  >:(

If you look at daily line ups on your phone you can see who plays what night. Here's my maybe conflicts:

Thursday:
Eddie Vedder
Florence and the Machine

Friday:
Grace Potter
Rodrigo y Gabriella

Saturday:
The Eagles
Herbie Hancock
MMJ
Pres Hall
Levon Helm

Sunday:
Neville Bros
Pres Hall 50th
Sharon Jones




If you all already knew the daily line ups, sorry, I didn't know they had been announced

Nice!  Dailies come out officially tomorrow...now I gotta see if the app will work on my (not i) phone.  :)

EasyRyder

thursday and saturday it is then  :thumbsup: the chances of seeing the eagles, mmj, and levon seem remote at best tho

Super excited when I heard it was Eddie.

Now just hoping there is some great late nights in the works. 

2nd weekend already booked for me with Grand Marshall passes. Flight/Hotel/Resturants all booked as well.
Only thing left to do is get late night tickets and PARTY!!

Despite my best wishes, Bruce Springsteen and the E street Band have been added..."Springsteen and company will close out the Acura Stage on April 29, the fest's first Sunday."

e_wind

 Love Bruce. Sad it's weekend one. The weekend one line up is all around better

Very true... :)  Depending on what else is happening, I'll probably do a drive by.  I mean, I am from New Jersey.  I should at least be able to say that I've seen the guy.  ;)

ALady

Yeah, he's worth seeing...about once.   ;)

I wish we could make this festival, but as we'll only be returning from Australia a couple of weeks before this looks unlikely.  Plus, we probably have to do some home improvements (ugh!).
