Looks like the boys will be one of the headliners :)
I called this. Super pumped. By the way 3 day passes are already sold out.
I'M FREAKING OUT. Hopefully this means they'll roll through Houston and Dallas as well! :beer:
Also, where did you see this? My boyfriend just called me and now I can't find the info online!
Edit: Oops! Nevermind. ;)
MMJ, Cee-lo, Delta Spirit, Fleet Foxes, J. Roddy Walston, Empire of the Sun, Iron and Wine
see y'all there
Here is a photo I took from the last time they played ACL:

Great news, but I would've been surprised if they didn't play ACL. There was no way they wouldn't come to Tejas!
What are the chances they'll play an after show? I know MOF did last year, but they weren't headlining. Really hoping they do, I need a Stubb's show!
I bet they play Stubb's or the new ACL Live either Thursday or Wednesday night.
arcade fire is gonna be there as well
sucks stevie and mmj are headlining saturday. they really couldn't switch mmj with either coldplay or kanye? don't make me choose!
FLIGHT. BOOKED.
Roll Call?

Was this livestreamed?
The ACL set was livestreamed on youtube. My friends said it looked great. I couldn't make myself leave to see Stevie Wonder since they were on top of their game that night (also there was mega soundbleed reported). I rank their ACL show better than bonnaroo mainly because of the sound issues that started off their set that day. Weather was also a big factor being nicer at ACL than Roo.
I did get a couple videos, will post my photos later after school tonight. My camera records great video and takes decent pics (Canon SX1 megazoom). Audio is right at the limit but acceptable.

Thanks! I am getting my 360 spinner film back today and am optimistic that at least 1 shot came out. I will share those once scanned and touched up.
I reviewed the fest at great length, thought it was one of the more standard MMJ sets I've seen (1.5 hours simply isn't enough) but in comparison to everyone else, they easily landed in the Top 3/4 shows of the weekend. Tough competition this weekend with what was going on at Bomba Estereo, Santigold, Manu Chao, Charles Bradley and Arcade Fire. Check it out and lemme know what you think, first time covering a fest for my own site, lots of fun and no deadlines!
