Awesome news. what does ilovefestys have to say about Bruce playing Sat? They were adamant about Bruce playing sunday. maybe his news changed or something.
i'm glad phish late night will be friday. the saturday late night potential is already too much to think about
-When I Hear My Name -Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground -Blue Orchid -Passive Manipulation -Red Rain -Death Letter -My Doorbell -Hotel Yorba -Same Boy You've Always Known -Lovesick -Little Ghost -We're Going to Be Friends -The Hardest Button to Button -Black Math -The Nurse -I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself

any thoughts on the other friday late night sets? i'm just wondering about what my conflicts will be as I REALLY need to see Phish late night
femi kuti is only other confirmed fri. late night. then you have paul oakenfold/girl talk/crystal castles who will probably share a tent. galactic is always late night. then either a hip hop tent or the super jam.

interesting. this is EXACTLY what i've been posting around here all along - with the exception that my sources have told me that Jay Z will be playing Friday.
please see my thread "Beastie Boys: Actual Headliner or Clever Ruse" here:

I don't see the Basties playing a 2.5 -3 hour headline slot on Friday night. Maybe they do play that long, maybe Phish will go on at 11. Hopefully they'll put another big name there.
i guess there is the possibility that beastie boys will be late night which stage. because i can't seem to decide who they would put on which stage up against phish. this way there is another fri. headliner. that's the only way. and no, i can't see that being the dead.
Nice... now I dont have to worry about a Phish/Mars Volta latenight conflict.
What about a NIN / Volta conflict. that would suck! if B B gets the fri slot before Phish then this problem becomes very realistic. Could NIN play on the WHAT before Bruce? That would help

I have a feeling Mars Volta wont be playing late night
The best part of this is knowing that Phish will be on the premises all weekend...which means they'll be around for many collaborations! I'm definitely thinking you get Trey coming out with Bruce.
i was thinking super jam will be sat. night and guess who plays?
I really dont think there are any 'major' additions left, this is already a very top heavy lineup and Beastie Boys and NIN are clear 2 hr night/late night set
I wouldn't mind another headliner, but I'd surmise this is what we're paying for for the weekend, and I am still plenty pleased

Yum yum! Tasty crow!
So picture this:
Sunday night... Phish finishes their encore. Immediately, thousands of spunions, who've ingested more than is appropriate for driving, immediately hop in their cars to make the drive home. They are joined by the 30,000 people who normally leave before the headliner on Sunday, but won't leave this year because it's Phish, not the Boss.

Worst traffic jam ever?
Let's watch.
I agree, man. I said no way Phish on Sunday night for that very reason. It will be interesting, I cant wait.

i don't think it will be that bad. a lot of people will still leave early for lots of reasons a)they have to get back home for work b)they don't really care for phish or seeing phish once is enough for them or c)bruce fans that won't stick around afterwards. i bet phish will play later than sun. headliners usually do. so most of the phans will probably stay till the morning.

here's how i think it might be:
MARS VOLTA, THEN THE BOSS, THEN NIN LATE NIGHT.
i say that bc we already know nin has a speial spot, so i can't see that special spot being at 7 in the day time before Springsteen... that's just me though
What about a NIN / Volta conflict. that would suck! if B B gets the fri slot before Phish then this problem becomes very realistic. Could NIN play on the WHAT before Bruce? That would help

I'm a huge Mars Volta fan and just lukewarm to NIN so it wouldn't be a problem at all for me.
I've also had a feeling that they might get shafted from the late night spot but I try to keep myself optimistic.
