The only rule is the band has to be actively together and touring...

The Has Been Stage

The Replacements
Belle & Sebastian
The Dirtbombs
The Primitives
Mark Morriss (Bluetones)
Sloan
Hello=Fire

Bands no one cares about Stage

JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound
Django Django
Villagers
Milo Greene
Bombay Royales
Lady


Innovators no one cares about anymore stage

Model 500
Inner City
Carl Craig (live)
Derrick May
Terrence Parker
Alan Oldham

Of course day two would be the a supersized Daptones Soul Revue

Daptones Stage

Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings
Budos Band
Sugarman 3
Saun & Starr

Supersized Stage

Third Coast Kings
Ikebe Shakedown

Alkaline Trio's Matt Skiba says the star-studded emo/punk festival When We Were Young was announced before a single band on the bill agreed to play
Alkaline Trio frontman Matt Skiba says his band hadn't said 'Yes' to playing the When We Were Young festival when the bill was initially announced, and his friends in bands told him the same story

It died a quick death in 2014, when we had many more posters.

I think both the Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits Festival had much better lineups 20 years ago. (And I don't necessarily think that the music from 20 years ago was better than today.)
