 speaking of GNR, who the hell is filling in for Slash since he plays with Velvet Revolver?

To enjoy it, I'm pretty sure you have to drop some MDMA first.

I think the most likely bands playing the festival will be ones with new albums out, giving them something to promote, along with not coming to DC in the months leading up to the show. Velvet Revolver breaks this, as they're playing 930 soon, but all the other announced acts fit into this category. That being said, likely acts:
 
 White Stripes (maybe too big)
 Bjork (maybe too big)
 Amy Winehouse
 Neko Case
 Underworld
 Chemical Brothers

i'm listening to "homework" right now for the first time this millennium, i think (my first mdma-free millennium). it sounds really good but i still don't understand what makes their live sets so awe-inspiring and legendary. is it all about the visuals? i mean, who really gives a fuck about visuals? that's when the flaming lips started to suck ass, when they started concentrating a lot more on the visuals than the songs.
 
 anyway, to try to stay on topic a bit i would say that kings of leon are a solid bet to play.

Jimmy Eat World is coming out with a new CD this year arent they?

[Chulahoma]

Arctic Monkeys, even though they're playing the club in a few weeks

[xneverwherex]

Ash, Maximo Park, The Rakes, Hard-Fi (I believe) all have new stuff coming out. Then again, I'm hoping they all play Lolla. Besides Maximo is touring in July and the guys in Ash now live in NYC thusly making it easier to see them around.

Lolla got Silverchair, can we get Candlebox please?

Ummmm . . . . considering The Who & Chili Peppers headlined last year, & The Police/Beastie Boys are headliners this year, NO ONE you mentioned above is remotely close to too big to play VFest.

[starrdogg92]

I meant too big to not have already been announced as a headliner. I mean, I doubt we'll get The Police, Beastie Boys, Smashing Pumpkins, The White Stripes AND Bjork. It seems somewhat unreasonable.

Don't underestimate the power of Seth's networking abilities.  For 2 days worth of action, I could see it . . . . Matter of a fact, I think it's a wrap that we get the White Stripes.  Far as Bjork, I could give a fuck . . .  

[starrdogg92]

What makes you so sure that we'll get The White Stripes?
