Holy hell. Nick Cave, MBV, Hot Snakes, Shellac, Nurse With Wound, Swans, Neurosis, Wu-Tang.....unfairly stacked. I'd like to see almost everyone on the lineup. Except for Foxygen, Quack that band.

Nurse With Wound got me too. That was my "wow factor".

I know I'm in the minority, but this is what I think a perfect festival lineup looks like. The "big" names aren't that big - just really good. And then it's stacked top to bottom with great acts, many of whom aren't that common. Much better than the standard U.S. Big Festival pattern of "mostly the same subheadliners who are touring that summer, then a rotating cast of arena acts."
I see people on this board freaking out about Paul McCartney or the Rolling Stones. I couldn't really care less about seeing either - one of those acts atop a typical summer festival lineup does nothing for me, I'd much rather see something like this.
Radiohead, prince, muse, chili peppers, etc...and they are lucky if they get 1 mill, but they normally only get 500 k
then you have third tier : snoop, dre, J z...they get 100 k
then you have 4th tier : black keys, munford byoncee, Prince etcc: they get 50k

Which acts on that lineup aren't that common? The only ones I see are The Knife and Blur, both of whom might be at Coachella as well. I think The Postal Service will be everywhere this summer, Nick Cave just toured across the country, and MBV has been consistently touring the past few years.
Most of the undercard names are names I wouldn't be surprised to see on numerous festival bills this summer.
