You guys beat me to it. Honestly, I am a little surprised. Line up is good, but man, no where near the year Rage, Radiohead, NIN, Kanye and Raconteurs all headlined.

So day by day line up is now on their website. Fuck me in the ass. Bassnectar and Sabbath are playing on the same day. Hopefully not against each other.
Other than that, it is ridiculously balanced for my preferences.
same here, the only thing i was hoping for (mostly) was that The Weekend/Black Sabbath/ At the Drive-In wouldnt be at the same time, and they are all on separate days ;D Friday may be a little hectic though
gotdamn there's a bunch of poop that I want to see on Friday. As long as there's no conflict with Black Sabbath & The Afghan Whigs...I won't throw a temper tantrum and burn the whole place to the ground, but I'd really like to see M83, Die Antwoord, Tame Impala, The Black Angels, Michael Kiwanuka, and O Rappa since they're not playing any of the other festivals I'm going to this year and I've never seen them. Sunday evening is going to be fuuuuckin' awesome if we get Sigur Ros > At the Drive-In > Jack White with no conflicts between those. overall I say Friday and Sunday are equally as good (maybe a slight edge to friday because it's so deep) Saturday, we can chill out...hopefully there's a good late night show.
Never been before but pretty desperate to somehow catch At the Drive-In this summer so considering flying in just for Sunday (can't afford hotels for multiple days). Any way to reasonably predict who will be up against Jack White? I'd guess At the Drive In based on initial schedule, but based on daily looks like maybe Florence? Could maybe justify it to myself if I got to see AtDi and Jack White!

I'd bet it will be sabbath v.s. keys v.s. bassnectar

HELL YES!!! The only day that I'm available to go is Sunday.
The two acts I want to see the most are Jack White and At the Drive-In. I was PRAYING (not really I dont pray) that just one of them would be on Sunday, and it turns out they BOTH are.

The bad news is that you will have to choose which one of them to see. 7 stages, with 4 bands playing at the same time? It could be: Jack (S Main) vs. Florence (N Main) vs. ATDI (Grove) vs. Justice (Perry) I dunno, Justice will prolly be on one of the main stages though. Easy decision for me since I will be seeing Jack at hangout, but I imagine this will be tough for most folks. I would be more pissed if I had to choose between Sigur Ros and ATDI. I'd choose ATDI just because it will probably be my only chance to ever, but I would be so pissed about missing Sigur Ros.

This is incredibly cruel. Never been to Lolla, but may go Fri. I'd like to see both Keys and Bassnectar. Are the conflicts usually at the same times too? Or just some overlap? Does Lolla have shorter set times like Coach?

Headliners get anywhere from 2:15 (Green Day in '10) to 1:30 (Muse and Eminem last year). Everyone else gets anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour. The walk from the North to South Stage takes a little while, so if you're going to hit both headliners, figure in some walking time.
Headliners conflict, but most of the other stages are staggered. Each end of the park has a main stage and a secondary stage that alternate playing. (i.e. on Sunday '11, Explosions in the Sky played from 7-8 and Foos went on at 8.)

Jack White and Justice are definitely the two headliners that will be closing out the major stages on the North and South ends of the festival. It's impossible to predict which side of the festival At the Drive In or the headliners will be playing since there are factors with this lineup that we haven't really seen before with lolla, but ATDI will not be the band that plays immediately before the headliners. Those are usually smaller bands and the #3 (ATDI) and #4 (FLOMACHINE) typically play a set that ends an hour before the headliner on that side of the fest begins.
Based on the schedule last year, the worst case scenario for seeing ATDI and Jack would be if ATDI had a set ending at 7:30, then you had to travel 3/4 mile to the other side of the fest to see Jack White at 8. The reverse of that (switch sides of the fest with same times as last year) would be ATDI ending at 7 and Jack White starting at 8:30, which would be better. If they're both on the same side of the fest, then seeing both acts will be no issue at all and we are both in heaven.
Overall, I'd say there is very little chance ATDI will overlap with Jack White or even end at the same time as he starts on the opposite side of the fest. However, if you're extremely concerned with getting good position for both, then you'll probably need them to be on the same side of the fest so it goes ATDI - 1 hour wait - Jack White.
That sounds reasonable. I'd miss some of Jack to have a decent spot for ATDI. Some other good acts to catch on Sunday also, but those would definitely be my big ones. Jack vs Justice or even vs Florence would be ideal since I've see them, so no big deal there either! Thanks!

No clue how I messed up a quote, but you get the idea!

Something like F+tM-->(Sigur Ros)--> Jack White would be pretty fantastic for Sunday. Not sure how realistic that is but it's probably the only way to see those three.
