Yeah, I was planning on going... but expecting much better.  This is weak compared to last year IMO

I'm taking my chances on Lollapolooza instead.  $60 for a three day pass.

Sonic Youth is doing a few dates in Europe playing the Daydream Nation album.  Maybe they do the same at Pitchfork?

What are the chances of the band playing the new Friday night thing being Sonic Youth playing Daydream Nation?  Because in that case, I need to get myself to Chicago.  Has anyone heard any news?

Pitchfork confirms that Friday is Sonic Youth playing Daydream Nation.

I'm so there for Pitchfork Fest.  But the rest of the lineup is so soso that if a d.c. SY date gets announced I'll regret it.

I can honestly say I'd rather see Def Leppard play Pyromania in its entirety. Or BonJovi do Slippery When Wet.
