Bringing WSp at this point would be a loss for a 4th year fest on the beach claiming they can play with the big boys. If HMF wants to play with roo, they need green day or muse- forget any legacy acts except bob dylan. TOur ends in late April. I say Green Day. Like it or not- GD is huge. Top 5 band of the 90s

This is pretty funny, thinking Green Day or Muse would make Hangout a top tier festival and WSP wouldn't. You know Hangout is in the South right? Green Day would actually piss more people off than would please anyone, and no one in the south even knows who Muse is. There is much different demographic between Hangout and other festivals like Lollapalooza or Coachella. WSP would probably actually be a better get for Hangout because WSP fans are centralized around the south, travel to see their band, and don't give a shiz how much money they spend while doing so. Sorry but no one is going to travel from Atlanta just for a Green Day or Muse add, those people already bought their tickets because KOL is there. A ton of people would buy tickets to see Panic on the beach, bc Panic fans are a lot less likely to go to a festival if Panic's not there. This is the reason Panic headlines Hangout and Bonnaroo but not Outside Lands. Or why Pheonix is headlining Coachella and 6th on the list at Beale Street.
BTW Even though I want Panic I don't care if they are there or not cause I'm already seeing them 18 times from mid April to mid July.
Panic is a ticket selling plan, not a backup plan. Backup plans don't do four night runs at red rocks. All the haters are the ones who love what 'roo has become (jam free) as opposed to what it was. However, WS is not headlining this year because they are not touring from may 4th to waka...it's pretty simple. Bands that size don't hop in a van and go play one offs. If the HL'er is anyone with already announced dates, then i'll assume there was a scramble....furthur, wsp, mum,...any headliner of another fest.....remember, paul simon was a late add and nobody saw that coming.

^While I don't think Panic is headlining, they have done random one day festival appearances that don't really fit into summer or spring tour. When they played Hangout last time it was listed as "May Dates" on Panic's website instead of Spring or Summer tour. My other theory is that the reason they worded the lineup announcement on the 6th as "artist additions" and mentions nothing about a headliner, is bc they are only going to announce all the other non headlining acts then after WSP's Oak Mountain tickets go on sale on 3/22 they will announce Panic is headlining.

Green Day?! No. That's extremely laughable. They haven't been relevant in almost 15 years.
Panic is a solid choice. You do relize that bonnaroo is panics fest, right? Superfly started it as an alternative to all the Phish fests -- and wanted it to be Panic's fest.
Panic is a good pickup, but I honestly don't think it's them.
Phish dates are around the corner as well, could it possibly be them?

....close to accurate. They did a 4 show run bookended by HO and Scamp.
I would love for them to be there, but it just seems unlikely given their sched and jazz fest.........phish?....again, where's the logic? Trey is on a simultaneous tour?
Two possibilities....they've scrambled for someone or someone we don't know about is releasing a tour and/or an album next week.
Prince was just on Fallon last night. I am holding out hope that they lured him in.
WSP would be a great add, the show in '11 was great, one of the best Jimmy Surprise Valley's I've heard. The Warren sit in was epcot as well.
Don't know if it was mentioned in here but Tom Hetty and Crowes are on Saturday of the fest, and KOL is Friday.
If they could pull out Prince or Furthur to close the fest out I would seriously freak out. A Dead show on the beach would be a beautiful thing. So many n00bs would bail before they played too.
The above review article of Prince on the Jimmy Fallon show mentions he begins a tour starting on the west coast in Mid-April. Yet no dates have been announced so perhaps he will be announcing those and a spot at Hangout this week
I'm torn between hoping for Atoms for Peace or Prince. Prince would sell out the festival and complement the lineup perfectly. Certainly that's not too much for Hangout to pull with Paul McCartney money.
Another confirmation that Stevie Wonder is our third headliner from a solid source. Feel free to think they landed Prince or Daft Punk though. Not trying to poop on your dreams. Just relaying ACTUAL news here.

I would be elated if they landed Stevie. That is really best case scenario and he'll be moved up to the first name on the poster too. Going from thinking it was going to be Mumford to thinking Stevie Wonder is such a huge bump. If you've never seen him, you're going to love it. He is lively and funny.
And I love Pwince, as in he's at the top of my music bucket list, but what a cheesepiece.
Funny how basically anonymous people never reveal their sources eh?
Ah, another post like this.
Listen guy, when you name your f'n sources on a public forum that has been watched nonstop by FB derps since the Great Fakeposter Trolling of 2013, you are going to be ensuring that this source gets told nothing next year since they are known to higher ups as someone that spills the beans.
I know the sources Wronginus is referring to and I believe 100% that it will be Stevie Wonder if they are saying it.
