Treasure Island Music Festival 2013

[CestLaVie]

James Blake and Shouting Matches would be fantastic. Two of my favorite sets this year at Coachella.

[ocbruin84]

Shouting Matches? Were you at Weekend 2?

[suprefan]

So was there a problem weekend 2 with them? My gripe was they messed up the gobi schedule weekend 1 cause they had to soundcheck an extra 20 mins.

[Drewski27]

yeah that was ridiculous.

[CestLaVie]

Shouting Matches? Were you at Weekend 2?

Yeah, although I did hear about the issues W1 though. That would have probably deterred from my listening/ patience as well, but W2 I thought they sounded really great. I'm always fairly impressed with JV and how he wears so many different musical hats seamlessly.

[ocbruin84]

I enjoyed them but my friend thought they were mediocre and weren't skilled enough for that style of music.

[travelfan]

I have a hunch Hot Chip will headline Saturday.

That's what I was thinking. Only reason I can imagine why Outside Lands wouldn't have snagged them. They only played the Fox show last September (which was so awesome btw).

[qshoe1989]

This would be awesome. I'd go in a heartbeat.

So with the announcement that Neutral Milk Hotel are reuniting, and are going to play Mountain Oasis AKA Moogfest, in Asheville, NC the week/weekend after TIMF, what are the chances we get them as our sunday headliner?

Highly unlikely? They're going to kick off their tour in Atlanta, the home of the Elephant 6 recording company. I don't think there's any other place that they like to play other than the legendary 40 Watt Club

You mean Athens.

Atlanta and Athens are not remotely the same place.

when I read the pet shop boys tour dates earlier at first I thought there was a gap and thought that was a great scoop for TI. but my imagination is not real.

Yeah! I was totally thinking they could have headlined, would have been something similar to how TIMF had Empire of the Sun close out the fest in 2011.

Also, just my 2 cents, but even though TIMF has broken the seal with their first repeat act last year(Girl Talk) I still think that makes Hot Chip less likely to play since they were at the fest in 2008... BUT it would be pretty awesome to see them again at TIMF, and mostly likely in a night time slot this time around!

[johnsisland]

I also vote for some Goat weirdness

[stochasticism]

Savages? It seems odd that they wouldn't announce any other west coast dates other than the LA date and they seem more likely for TI than being a late add for OSL.

They just posted some tour dates, they are staying on that side of the US until November when they head down to Australia. But damn, you were right about the 40 Watt Club, 3 nights in a row!

[PJandBompton]

Let me guess, you were watching Social Distortion or getting a good spot for Rodriguez.

no I was sitting in the stands by the tent getting hammered.

[LongshotJoe]

Robert DeLong added Treasure Island 10/19 to his Facebook events according to Bandsintown.

[TomServo]

Mildly amusing but also completely wrong. Florida is FULL of New Yorkers, and just about every one of those fuckers has vacationed at Disney and has an uncle retired there.

[Spooks]

James Blake tweets "Due to a scheduling conflict our show in Montreal on 6th May has been rescheduled to November so please hold onto your tickets. Apologies for any inconvenience - refunds are available to ticket holders."

It's a long shot, but this could mean he already has a second leg October/November North American tour planned. Possible TI performer.

Treasure Island please~!

Special thanks to everyone who came out to support us during the past 5 weeks of our US and Canadian Tour. From Indio to Atlanta and everywhere in between, you've been amazing! Thanks ever so much for the support, we will be back later in the year. James, Rob, Ben & Co

You mean Athens.

Atlanta and Athens are not remotely the same place.

Whoops!

[neema29]

Lineup is out 5/28 - found out via Instagram. Surprisingly early announcement this year!

[CrystalCastlesFreak]

I haven't attended in a few years so I'm hoping for a stellar lineup.

Except it is actually out 5/20.

[gswhooper]

Except it is actually out 5/20.

[stochasticism]

They had a tweet that said 5/20 that has since been deleted. My bad.

[qshoe1989]

I have attended in a few years so I'm hoping for a stellar lineup.

My thoughts exactly.

[Freedon]

really liking the poster design this year.

[McFearless]

I'm thinking we'll see a few of the acts that are going to headline ACL also headline treasure island. Depeche Mode headlining Saturday and Kings of Leon headlining Sunday perhaps?

I'd be hyped as hell to see Arctic Monkeys there too.
