Woot!  
 
 Thanks so much Seth for throwing a bone to these dogs (myself included), you know these indie-head music types, they've gotta be in the know!

you'd think that announcing the line-up sooner rather than later would be in the festival's best interests... people need to plan, and often it's a choice of one festival over another.  people that have gone ahead and committed to lolla or APW will be less likely to sign up for VFest.

for people who like STP and NIN and FOO, most of them are probably just going or not.
 
   the last few lineups drive at more commercial rock , the "Festivalites" are less of the priority it seems.  which isnt a bad thing considering how damn picky we are!  
 
  its easier and more profitable to appeal to a broader market.  and that market isnt picking between festivals i wouldnt think.

Haha, man. Every time I get bothered about waiting so long for this lineup, I remember how confident Seth is, and I feel alright.
 
 Can't wait for the lineup next week!

waiting for the inevitable, then saying "i told you so" - excellent marketing strategy.  will definitely sell more tickets than getting the line-up out in the same time-frame as all the other festivals.

Have the Raconteurs been announced?  Apparently they are playing every single festival this summer.
