Holy hell. Nick Cave, MBV, Hot Snakes, Shellac, Nurse With Wound, Swans, Neurosis, Wu-Tang.....unfairly stacked. I'd like to see almost everyone on the lineup. Except for Foxygen, fuck that band.

Nurse With Wound got me too. That was my "wow factor".

Bands like Nurse With Wound are what kill me when I see these Euro lineups. The kind of bands that aren't probably booking a US tour anytime soon (or ever).
I know I'm in the minority, but this is what I think a perfect festival lineup looks like. The "big" names aren't that big - just really good. And then it's stacked top to bottom with great acts, many of whom aren't that common. Much better than the standard U.S. Big Festival pattern of "mostly the same subheadliners who are touring that summer, then a rotating cast of arena acts."
I see people on this board freaking out about Paul McCartney or the Rolling Stones. I couldn't really care less about seeing either - one of those acts atop a typical summer festival lineup does nothing for me, I'd much rather see something like this.
Which acts on that lineup aren't that common? The only ones I see are The Knife and Blur, both of whom might be at Coachella as well. I think The Postal Service will be everywhere this summer, Nick Cave just toured across the country, and MBV has been consistently touring the past few years.
Most of the undercard names are names I wouldn't be surprised to see on numerous festival bills this summer.
Jugs, I completely agree with you. My only problem is that with Grizzly Bear, Animal Collective, Deerhunter, and Tame Impala all on the same day, I would have to make some seriously difficult decisions. Please, Bonnaroo, just give us half of this..

Choosing between a great band and a great band is a much better problem to have than having to choose between a great band and sh*tty band. Or having to settle for something you don't really care about.
