Good additions. DJ Shadow is definitely an unexpected choice, but a welcome one. Battles, Thurston, Superchunk, Barwick, and Zola Jesus are excellent icing on the cake for me.

The additions are really great. I'm only going Friday.. though there's a lot of acts the other days I would really like to see (Fleet Foxes, HEALTH, Toro Y Moi, DJ Shadow, Baths, Yuck, Aerial Pink's) I'm STOKED for what I'll be getting Friday. Best $45 ever spend easily.

For people who have been there before, what's the schedule/set times like? I'm for sure going Sunday but I'm wondering what the chances are that, for example, TVOTR Cut Copy and Deerhunter don't conflict? I'm assuming the 5 biggest draws that day will be those 3 plus Superchunk and OFWGKTA, so I'm wondering how they split them up. I know there's three stages so would they have the three biggest names at the same time? Or is it like a Lolla thing where the "pre-headliner" (say Cut Copy) is on a different stage immediately before the headliner (TVOTR)?

there are 3 stages at pitchfork. the two main stages are right next to each other and if you're standing between them a simple turn of the head will let you see both main stages. there is also a 3rd stage probably about 200 yards behind the 2 main stages which is about a 1/3rd of the size.
here's a pic.
here is how the end of the schedule will look like on sunday.
deerhunter - 6:15 - 7:25 - aluminum stage cut cop 7:25 - 8:30 - connector stage tv on the radio - 8:30 - 10 - aluminum stage
since these are the three highest billed they've always played last on the 2 main stages and have had the same set times for at least the last 3 years.

From the time he was diagnosed with cancer until the time he died (which was a super short amount of time) they toured with a different bassist. After he died they canceled shows for about a week but are back to touring. They'll be playing.

I've been anxious for a schedule, but I realized that the arrangement of artists on the website gives a pretty good idea of what order each of them will be playing.
Just look at the last 3 acts listed for each day: Neko/James Blake/Animal Collective, DJ Shadow/Zola Jesus/Fleet Foxes, Cut Copy/Health/TVoTR. Each middle act is considerably smaller than the other two, who are all the top 2 billed names for those particular days. Using the order from this year's website and last year's schedule, here's what I came up with:
a = Aluminum Stage, b = Balance Stage, c = Connector Stage Friday (gates at 3 p.m.): 3:30 EMA (a) 4:00 Gatekeeper (c) 4:35 Battles (a) 5:30 Tune-Yards (c) 5:45 Curren$y (b) 6:25 Thurston Moore (a) 6:30 Das Racist (b) 7:15 Guided by Voices (b) 7:20 Neko Case (c) 8:00 James Blake (b) 8:30 Animal Collective (a)
Saturday (gates at 12 p.m.): 1:00 Julianna Barwick (a) 1:00 Chrissy Murderbot (b) 1:45 Woods (c) 1:55 Sun Airway (b) 2:30 Cold Cave (a) 2:50 G-Side (b) 3:20 Gang Gang Dance (c) 3:45 Wild Nothing (b) 4:15 No Age (a) 4:45 OFF! (b) 5:15 Destroyer (c) 5:45 Twin Shadow (b) 6:15 Dismemberment Plan (a) 6:45 Radio Dept (b) 7:25 DJ Shadow (c) 7:40 Zola Jesus (b) 8:30 Fleet Foxes (a)
Sunday (gates at 12 p.m.): 1:00 Fresh & Onlys (a) 1:00 Darkstar (b) 1:45 Yuck (c) 1:55 How to Dress Well (b) 2:30 Kurt Vile (a) 2:50 Twin Sister (b) 3:20 OFWGKTA (c) 3:45 Shabazz Palaces (b) 4:15 Ariel Pink (a) 4:45 Baths (b) 5:15 Superchunk (c) 5:45 Kylesa (b) 6:15 Deerhunter (a) 6:45 Toro y Moi (b) 7:25 Cut Copy (c) 7:40 HEALTH (b) 8:30 TV on the Radio (a)
Friday's times will be different since the third stage was just comedians last year, but that order mostly makes sense to me. Friday's stage assignments might be off, too. GBV on the small stage doesn't look right. Other than that, I think this is what the schedule is going to look like.
that's pretty close on saturday and sunday, but i agree that friday is off.
somewhere on the lolla board someone who saw the schedule confirmed that the B stage on friday has the same times as sat/sun and that tune-yards (b stage) and battles (a stage) were playing at the same time (lame).
just hoping the actual thing comes out in the next few days.
Light on conflicts, but that's to be expected at a 3 stage festival where there's never more than 2 bands playing at once. Friday is definitely the worst for conflicts: Curren$y vs. Thurston and Tune-Yards vs. Battles are both tough.
Friday EMA --> Battles --> Thurston Moore --> Guided By Voices --> Neko Case --> Animal Collective Saturday Julianna Barwick --> Woods --> Cold Cave --> G-Side --> No Age --> Gang Gang Dance --> record fair --> Dismemberment Plan --> DJ Shadow --> Fleet Foxes Sunday The Fresh & Onlys --> Yuck --> Kurt Vile --> Odd Future --> Baths --> Kylesa --> Deerhunter --> Cut Copy --> TV On The Radio
