I took down my speculations :P, here's the official word:

Per Austin360:

The White Stripes have canceled their Saturday ACL headlining gig and Stubb's show on Sunday.

ACL producer Charles Attal cited medical reasons for the cancellation. Attal said Tuesday afternoon after rumors about both U2 filling in and Friday headliner Bjork canceling that Muse, who were scheduled to play right before the White Stripes, will move into the open slot.

A sort of domino effect will happen, with all the acts on the AT&T stage Saturday moving forward. The new schedule:

2:30-3:30: Augustana
4:30-5:30: Stephen Marley
6:30-7:30: Damien Rice
8:30-10: Muse

A band for the now-empty 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. slot has not been announced.

One wonders whether this will solve the audience-splitting problem created by the Arcade Fire/White Stripes conflict.

And Ghostland Observatory and Cold War Kids will be playing the Sunday night show at Stubb's previously occupied by the White Stripes. Tickets go on sale at 5 p.m. tonight. Check out stubbs.frontgate.com for ticket information.
