I don't think it's happening this year.  By January of last year we already had news about the festival and by early April the headliners were announced.  What's going on Seth??

APW v2 has announced its dates: july 31 - aug 2.  one can only hope that VFest isn't the same weekend.  i'm hopeful. 

but i also suspect it might not be happening this year... this is a long time without saying *anything*, even by VFest standard.  what with the economy being what it is, taking this year off might not be such a bad business move.

As of about a month and a half ago it was still on from what I heard.  I think the date will be announced very soon.

Some others I'd like to see there:
- Spiritualized
- Metric (the new album is incredible)
- Eagles of Death Metal
- Arctic Monkeys
- The Rapture

perhaps the secret is that the show will be free.  first come first serve.  the last show goes out in style.  all bands give up money to somehow support destroying livenation.

Incubus plays Sunday 8/9 at Merriweather and Phish plays Saturday 8/15...so we can probably cross both of those weekends off.

Lolla is 8/7-8/9 so it looks like they will not conflict.

That would leave the most likely dates as 8/1-8/2 or 8/22-8/23

Oh yeah try not to make virgin festival the same week as APW, right Seth?
