i'm bumping this in the hopes that I can make this happen.
 
 I just saw a few clips of NIN's rehearsal for the tour, and it was beautiful.
 
 so please please PLEASE don't let NIN conflict with Rabbit in the Moon!! Anyone else on Sunday is fine, just please don't let NIN conflict with RITM!!
 
 please seth, if you're reading, take this into consideration!!

Perfect additions. These are bands that you want to hear a few songs from but wouldn't pay the normal club ticket price for. Bravo.

Book the Band winner will be announced tomorrow, according to the VMFest Web site.
 
 Last year, they announced the schedule a couple of days after the Book the Band winner.
 
 Maybe we'll still get a couple of other additions. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
 
 Seth, a rumored schedule posted online has Cat Power and Bloc Party playing at the same time. Please say it ain't so!

Seth is being sarcastic I hope. I mean, save for Violent Femmes, these are sh*tty bands.

 I doubt it's true since there are no breaks between dance acts, but the set up for Sunday night would be pretty nice.

not having a break between dance acts isn't unusual... keeps people dancing.  
 
 seamless hand-offs between DJs/live acts used to be the norm before EMD went all rock'n'roll.

last year there were very little gaps between acts in the dance tent (10 mins at the most if I recall correctly).
 
 that schedule has a 30 minute gap between DJ Dan/Donals and Ferry Corsten - which seems very unlikely.
 
 on the schedule last year, there no gaps between just DJs at all.
 
 and wtf? Underworld only getting 1 hr 15 minutes? I was hoping for 90 mins at least  :( .
 
 also, Kanye is going to be pissed that his set starts at 6:30. No darkness for him.

if he is really playing before NIN, he better not be as late as he was at bonnaroo. If his ego (or anything for that matter) causes a delay and shorter set time for NIN, I will be very pissed.

if this schedule were to be true... the andrew bird vs. she & him at the top of the day is a bit epic in terms of who do i pick.

in my opinion the schedule is perfect.  not one single solitary conflict.  
 
 but perhaps thats cause i only want to see like 5 of the bands playing...
