Damn, Erasure. I forgot about them. Yes, please. On Sunday during the rapper thing.

Did anyone else notice that even without the Pure Filth acts there are still several less bands on the poster each day this year compared to 2011?

I would be VERY happy if alabama shakes was a late add this year!

[blackchango]

Little Dragon!

[travelfan]

If we're raiding 2010 Sahara anyway I wouldn't mind 2ManyDjs. Little Dragon and The War on Drugs seem relevant and completely feasible, I can't believe neither was on the poster.

[IceyHotshot]

Colin Stetson. He's already going to be there as part of Bon Iver. Would giving him 30 mins to do his own thing really be that much to ask?

[zircona1]

APHEX TWIN.

[alyssaf12]

We need more gay dance party acts. Goldfrapp, Erasures, etc.

Mmm yes Goldfrapp!

and fucking Sigur Ros. Fuck. my heart scan when I quickly scanned the line up for them.

[alyssaf12]

New Order and Kraftwerk

New Order!! yes please.

[Boourns]

Little Dragon - if anyone from 2010 that's still around deserved a return, it's them. now this is a set for GETTING DOWN.
Kraftwerk - because I need something before Radiohead that will keep me awake
Nisennenmondai - need a face-melting instrumental noise band
Erasure - doesn't everyone want some 80's fun?
Metric - actually, I just saw their setlist from Mexico last night and since they didn't play a single new song, maybe that new album isn't so ready after all, so nevermind
Asobi Seksu - never played, shortage of swirly guitars
Emeralds - missed most of their set at Primavera, but what I did see was great. Would be one of those Gobi sets seen by a couple hundred people but raved about by all afterwards.
Summer Camp - they seemed like a sure bet
Aphex Twin - bring some respectability to the edm side?
that dome - ditto

[clumsy342]

Little Dragon!

I think they booked Dragonette by mistake.

I was really hoping for: iamamiwhoami and Tom Vek.
Oh well. There's a ton of great acts.

[Timestretch]

We need more gay dance party acts. Goldfrapp, Erasures, etc.

Absolutely agree with this. I thought we would at least get one of the Australian/NZ dance bands like Bag Raiders, Gold Fields, or Miami Horror. I would have liked something from this genre if even I'm not a big fan of some of these bands.

[abbeyroad 04]

Lana Del Rey
Jamie Woon
Zulu Winter

[nosurprises12]

Aphex Twin
New Order
Thee Oh Sees
Fresh & Onlys
Scuba
Shabazz Palaces
Nicolas Jaar
The Field
FOUR TET
Machinedrum
Spectrals

[TickleMeElmo]

James Blake. How the fuck did he not make the lineup?

[Neighborhood Creep]

5 names I was really hoping for were

Tom Waits
Sigur Ros or Jonsi
xx
Alexander (yes, I am a fan)
Richie Hawtin of some sort


I was also hoping for Tomahawk after that thread I made of them doing another album. A bluegrass band or two wouldn't have hurt either
