This lineup is actually starting to look pretty good, but it's been a promotional disaster. Truthfully though, it's a pretty interesting, eclectic lineup at this point.
I would love to go to this but I am going to be out of $ and vacation days after voodoo>FFF>bear creek. If anyone here does go, do not miss Dead Can Dance. Saw them at the Ryman last month and that was one of the best shows that I have ever seen. Lisa Gerrard voice is absolutely incredible. I get goose bumps just thinking about it.
They released a $99 pass valid only before 2:00 pm.
This is starting to look more attractive for sure, but unfortunately I just ran my credit wayyy up with Ultra tickets. So it's not in the cards for me right now. If the prices stay the same I might nab one in Nov.

Is the billing wierd on this lineup or is it just me?
Is fun. really that big to be billed so high? And, this is probably just me, but I've never even heard of Keane or Dead can Dance. Do they really merit billing above animal collective? It's funny to me the highest billed artist I give a crap about is billed 10th (besides I guess kanye, though I'm not a huge fan)

Fun. is totally big enough for that slot by now. They've blown up big time, with We Are Young being #1 in the US for six (?) weeks, and Some Nights still at #4 after being on the Hot 100 for 34 weeks. I love Animal Collective too, but at this point, Fun. is the bigger name (remember, bigger doesn't mean better).
Also, I didn't know the first Keane song you posted Phi, but the second one was a total "OH, THAT SONG!" moment for me.

The question for me isn't really a matter of price, but rather just making sure I have that weekend available. Once I get the go ahead, this is pretty much a guarantee for me to go. Especially at that price! And the drive is only 4 hours for me.

screw it... I made the dive. I'll be there. I hope they book a dubstep arena, as previously promised. Future Sound of Breaks signed on to "collaborate" with UR1, and they usually book bass-music heavy line-ups (https://www.facebook.com/FutureSoundOfBreaks?fref=ts)
I also hope they add more to the current top and middle of the line-up. It seems wierd having Lou Reed be number 2 (and on the second line).
Dead Can Dance is easily the best act on the lineup.
They have barely toured since the mid 90's and have a major worldwide following. They also haven't played any US festivals. I doubt the crowd will give them the respect they deserve and will probably be yammering throughout the concert. The show at the Ryman I saw this fall, you could have heard a pin drop in there.
Def in my top 10 concert experiences (out of like 400-500 shows)
