If HO landed Sound City players (Rick Springfield, Stevir Nick, Taylor Hawkins, Chris Novilsec) and maybe guest appearances from Trent Reznor and Josh Homme, I'd have to say that would be a big get. It's nice to dream but I doubt it.

I spelled Stevie Nicks incorrectly (damn IPhone) but I forgot about John Fogerty and I guess they are playing SXSW so you never know.

Van Halen announced a few days ago out of the blue they are doing a big festival date in Australia on April 20th. They may could be an out of left field replacement. As for who I would like to see that is reasonable I would like an outside the box pick that is "worth the wait." I know that is broad but my inclination would be towards a rare American festival act like Van Halen or Prince. There are several major names still available schedule wise but it will interesting to see what musical genre they go with to fill that final lead spot.

No Stevie Nicks if we get the SCP.... Fleetwood's in Europe at that time. Maybe Tom Petty can take her place; he doesn't play on the soundtrack but he is interviewed in the movie, and since he's already gonna be there.... Maybe they can play deep cuts off of Damn The Torpedoes. That'd be cool
I wish Hangout would just announce Mumford & Sons already so I can be spared from having to read all the stupid/unrealistic predictions for the third headliner when I click "Recent Posts."

I thought the realistic pick was Stevie Wonder now.
I remember reading posts claiming sources said Stevie was offered, but it sounded like unconfirmed nonsense to me because nobody gave any actual sources. Stevie would be an awesome get for Hangout, but he doesn't seem like a fit for 3rd headliner in my opinion (even though he was listed behind KoL inexplicably at Bonnaroo '10).

I think it was just a rumor. Somebody got an idea of someone that fit Hangout's "style" and ran with it. Petty's the "legacy" act here though. I think they're looking for another big rock act.
One could argue the Sound City Players is a legacy act, but it's so rare for that to happen it probably wouldn't matter.

Th3rd Man and Phi both heard that an offer was out to Stevie. He's played Roo, OSL, and ACL in recent years, so he's not shy about playing festivals. Seems like the kind of act Hangout would contact if they were scrambling for a third headliner. Why is that so far-fetched? You're talking up Sound City Players based on literally nothing.

I have a music industry friend here in Nashville who told me Stevie Wonder was sent an offer also. Id say that part is true. Whether he's booked, who knows.
EDIT: And this was told to me before I even saw the other post made by Th3rdman. When I came here to post it is when I saw his post.

I can't even get a hold of my buddy. Take that is you want. Personally, that doesn't seem to bode well.
If all their headliners fell through, good luck in opening negotiations with another big name less than 3 months before the fest. These things take a lot of time to plan...stage setups, logistics, etc...if they aren't in talks with someone right now, this is looking very very bad.

Green Day fell through on Voodoo last year like a month before the fest and they were able to confirm Metallica a week later. And Metallica requested the most elaborate stage setup that has ever been at voodoo and they were able to handle it with only 3 weeks notice. There's plenty of time to get whoever they want. They might already have the headliner locked and are putting together the rest of the lineup before making the announcement.
