FYF Fest 2012

[ameeps]

Where is all this talk about Modest Mouse headlining coming from? I've been hearing it for months, but haven't seen any actual proof of comments from anyone involved in the festival...

[suprefan]

derp

[tmac]

seriously. keep it in this thread. can't we get the other one deleted?

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

M83 headlining doesn't really excite me and I enjoy them a bunch. Doesn't feel right for the fest though I'm sure everyone will have a great time. They have some great alternatives to the headliners anyways.

I'm not excited only because they are playing sooooooooo much.

...but I'll probably watch anyway, unless something really awesome is going at the same time.

i like this thread better

[AeroplaneJunkie]

this thread blows

[suprefan]

You do a good job at blowing it, so keep it coming.

[Spooks]

The Faint
Blonde Redhead
Warpaint
Mogwai
Wolfgang Gartner

No to Mogwai since they'll be on their last us tour for a long time in June but I can see the Faint/Warpaint. The Faint tweeted couple days ago saying they're practicing again or something along those lines...

jesus & mary chain just announced west coast tour dates. they are playing la in june so i don't know if this takes them out of the loop.

also, a few comments on the fyf facebook page indicate that a few coachella acts had confirmed their spot at fyf. i'm assuming this is why people are saying refused & m83 will headline.

[dorkfish]

Purity Ring are playing SF the Monday after FYF 2012.

This thread is so good

[Phantasma Del Mar]

Solid thread 10/10

[suprefan]

Video hint just posted for one of the headliners. (m83)

[bmack86]

My guess is that means George Romero is going to be doing his synth stuff as a headliner.

[OddZilla]

This could be a confirm on refused? Since they are no longer "fucking dead"?

[Mugwog]

Although I'm not too crazy about this festival itself, the way they tease out the lineup is pretty fucking awesome

[stellarpoet22]

This could mean we are gonna see hologram 2pac....
And other dead people

Cause they would fly from L.A. to Raleigh after Labor Day, right?

This could be a confirm on refused? Since they are no longer "fucking dead"?

Its been discussed. And its going to be M83 and Refused.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

Regardless, why would that clue have been for M83 and not Refused?

EDIT: nevermind, saw your comment on the facebook page.

[djoz187]

When I first saw that teaser I immediately thought of The Undead, I have a sinking feeling that's impossible though, too lazy to look up why

[luckyface]

I would have thought they would post a video of Peter Gabriel to indicate M83 would be there.

[hawkingvsreeve]

You mean Phil Collins.

[Gribbz]

They should have posted this:



Epic scene from an epic film.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

ahahahaha perfect

[Mugwog]

They should have posted this:

I feel like this is a cross between Interview with a Vampire/The 80s/Twilight

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

Have you never seen The Lost Boys before?

[Mugwog]

Have you never seen The Lost Boys before?

Is that the movie about Michael Jackson and kids in the closet?

[luckyface]

They should have posted this:



Epic scene from an epic film.

Hahahaha yes!

And I would have been all about the new M83 had he tried to emulate Phil Collins' voice.
