Would really look forward to seeing these guys on the fields, must get damn hot under those robes though...

[Neighborhood Creep]

Interesting. Is this the first 'real' confirm?

[travelfan]

Nothing like a leftfield confirmation to get the rumor season going. This made me incredibly excited, less for the act and more for the confirmation.

[travelfan]

Although damn, what festival whores.

[ods..]

YAY! I'm excited

[captncrzy]

Although damn, what festival whores.

My first thought

[mikey1313666]

What are those 2013 dates? Have they even announced Bonnaroo and Outside Lands dates yet?

Not OSL yet, but Lolla is Aug 2-4 and OSL has been the weekend after Lolla for the last 3 or 4 years. So that Sat, Aug 10 OSL date is quite likely.

This is a cool "confirmation" to me. I've never seen them live and it seems like it would be quite an experience.

[Bumblebee]

Surprised they book exact days of the week they play festivals 14 months in advice.

Won't ACL 2013 be 2 weekends? Plus only a single date listed for Reading/Leeds.

[yeahfontaine]

Guess who I saw open for David Bowie once???...

True, but seriously these guys will be fun on the fields. And wow a confirmation already

[Rolwolf]

It's hard to believe they're already booked for shows in October and December of 2013. That picture is captioned "going for the moon" -- maybe its more a list of goals than a schedule of planned events; they're shooting for the moon to play at all those festivals and hit those release date.

I'd be really, really excited to see them though.

[jazzz]

I want Polyphonic Size !

[travelfan]

You would think if Coachella was just a goal, they'd have the weekend written down, and not the specific day (Saturday). Given that their Coach show is way before any of the others, I doubt they would be shooting for a specific day, but rather to be on the lineup. Also, could the gap between Coachella and everything else indicate what is booked and what is a goal?

[Rolwolf]

You're probably right; it certainly could be a bit of both.

[Miroir Noir]

ACL is two weekends, but not reflected as such on whiteboard. Kinda weird. Maybe this is aspirational?

[SlowMotionApocalypse]

This band sucks

[Mr. Fuzz]

One less conflict.

Probably just went with the friday dates from last year, no?

[heart cooks brain]

why would they use the friday dates from last year when 2013 calendars exist?

[SlowMotionApocalypse]

I saw Tripping Daisy. Once. Also horrible.

[concertgoer]

They are a blast live
Hopefully they end up on the lineup

[Bumblebee]

Guess who I saw open for David Bowie once???...

I caught 2 of those shows in April 2004. I best remember them doing a couple minutes of "Memory of a Free Festival" and watching hardcore Bowie fans going ballistic out of nowhere.

[Electrotek]

I saw Tripping Daisy. Once. Also horrible.

They were perhaps one of the best bands to ever come out of the Dallas scene. Watch your mouth.

[Buddha99]

Very good news, if true...

[gabfrab]

Bonnaroo posted their dates today and they don't match what the Spree had written on that board. Perhaps it really is just a wish list of what they hope to do. I saw them in May and the show was incredible. I hope y'all do end up getting it this year.

[heart cooks brain]

i messaged the band after they posted that pic and they just responded

what we would LIKE to do. and will

Whoops.

[SepaGroove]

So maybe we DON'T have our first confirmation...

[travelfan]

So maybe we DON'T have our first confirmation...

But they really want to play...

[heart cooks brain]

I replied back asking about coachella, since they listed saturday of both weekends. No response yet.
