My Top Ten, in order of appearance on lineup:
The Flaming Lips
Passion Pit
TV on the Radio
Special Disco Version
Flying Lotus
Suicide
M83
77 Million Paintings
Ghostland Observatory
The Antlers
HM: Umphrey's McGee, Amon Tomin, Little Dragon, St. Vincent, Battles, Toro y Moi, and more.
Crystal Castles would have made my list, but I've heard such awful things about their live show. Passion Pit was the inverse, they made it because I've heard their live show is so strong.
Not sure about my top ten must sees but I would say
Amon Tobin, M83, Tangerine Dream, Tim Hecker, Flaming Lips, Crystal Castles, and Ghostland Observatory, will all be in my, " I hope they don't conflict file"

Holy shit! This is going to be awesome! Scrog, bring an air mattress buddy, the more the merrier! We have a hot tub and a kitchen. I'm trying to figure out how to split cost, the total was like 700 and some bucks I think and so far we have like 9 people I think. Only 3 queen beds, but there is a living room and dining room we can move furniture for.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

Is there any interest in starting another Moogfest thread for logistics? Then we can keep this one for artist and schedule talk while using the other to arrange rides and rooming. What say ye?

Are you still going after having that baby with the giant head? lol

I personally like the idea of keeping it all in one thread. I was gonna put together a contact list for everyone that wanted to be on it closer to the festival date.
But thats just me. I don't even know what section of the board that would go into.
I would love to hit another fest this year. I am on the fence between HSB (Hardly Strictly Bluegrass) Moog, and Fun Fun Fun Fest. I will probably have a better idea what I am doing at the beginning of September. The fall festivals are looking pretty tight this year.

Agreed. I'm in love with FFF but there is just no way realistically I can do that.

Same boat. That FFF lineup is insane, but there's just no way I could make it work. If I had to choose just one fall festival, though, it would still probably be Moog. Tangerine Dream, Suicide, and the Eno installation and lecture just make it seem more....special.
There are only 2 bands I am dying to see at FFF. One I saw a ton and another I don't know if I will get another opportunity to see. After that everyone is playing Moog. Bottom-line is Asheville is the only place I'd be. Austin is a wonderful place but I have never been to a city like this. Great city, wonderful bands and just amazing people. What more do you need?

Even though I have a room downtown, I'd love to party @ Casa de Hot Tub w/the rest of you hooligans one night. VectorViking & I discussed using the downtown hotel rooms as our free bar/refueling stations between shows. It sure as hell beats paying club prices for drinks...

If last.fm knows anything about what music I like, this is going to be a amazing weekend! Schedule conflicts will be inevitable but if I'm able to see half of the groups I like I'll be very happy. So far on my notsoshort list:
-Tim Hecker (no way I'm missing this) -M83 -Flying Lotus -Twin Shadow -Toro Y Moi -Amon Tobin -Zomby (!!) -Kode9 -SBTRKT (loving the UK dubstep presence) -Gold Panda -Cloudland Canyon -Atlas Sound
...and most definitely Brian Eno's show/exhibit. I'm waiting to hear back from a few couchsurfers for a place to stay but if any inforooers have some room to spare I'll chip in on hotel costs, etc. Also, I'm flying in to Asheville's airport around 5pm Thursday night if anyone arriving by air wants to coordinate rides to downtown.

I live in Asheville and have a lot of party people staying with me that weekend. My friend rents his place out as a vacation rental. It has some Moog art and a jam room (possibly with MiniMoog although it is sometimes lent out). www.vrbo.com/359590
