Default Re: who do you think will be the REAL headliner for Saturday?

dude i was just thinking the same thing. No way it's just The Killers.

Fri - Paul McCartney, Morrisey

Sun - MBV, The Cure, YYY's

Sat - The Killers, ???

My hope is that OUTKAST will be announced.

Do you think Amy Winehouse is big enough, sober enough to sub headline?
I don't think she is. She was in the Gobi 2007, right? IMO she had a good set even though you could tell she was only 70% into it. They need another name for Saturday.

Saturday does seem weak by comparison. Maybe they figure that if they load up Friday and Sunday, and then sandwich Saturday in the middle, people will just go to Saturday by default.

Default Re: who do you think will be the REAL headliner for Saturday?

it will be neil young for sure.

from booker t's website:

With choice accompaniment by the capable Southern rock visionaries Drive By Truckers and a sound often pushed into over drive by the volcanic lead guitar of rock and roll legend Neil Young, it is an altogether extraordinary set. Featuring a mixture of newly written songs and a trio of intriguing covers, all recorded in a scant one weeks time, Potato Hole captures Booker T at the critical peak of a renewed creative phase in his storied career.


booker t is already playing saturday, so is drive by truckers...so i'm banking on neil young being added to saturday. blam.

they loaded up Friday pretty well this year

at least the cure has enough in their catalog that it will probably be diverse. they are really good about switching up their shows and what they play. i have faith, 2004 was amazing, i just hope they aren't late this year like then.

Actually Sunday last year had Roger Waters and Justice, but otherwise there weren't nearly as many acts as the other days. I think it's no better than 50/50 that anyone major gets added on Sat. It would be nice though, because there does seem to be a void in the lineup that day. Even if it's someone "2nd tier" like Bloc Party or Kings of Leon.

The Killers have a semi-decent stack of hits, but I think "Human" and this latest album have created a substantial backlash that's come at the worst possible time for Goldenvoice.
