I really don't see TMOE as a headliner. He's listed two spots above Lord Huron on the Lollapalooza lineup, and below Father John Misty.
But I also don't see him as a bigger act than I&W.
Wow I wouldn't have known TMOE was that big either. Above Iron & Wine? Maybe he is headliner level, but I doubt it. Would be something of a letdown after the other options thrown around (MMJ, etc)

The only issue with Iron And Wine and Ben Is that they are going to be playing covers, and because of that I don't think he will be as high in the lineup as he would if he was solo.

If you see some crazy guy running from stage to stage all day Friday-Saturday, that's just me. There better not be a log-jam between stages like last year during Shakey Graves' set!

Oh also, saw someone mentioned Guster. I saw them last week up here and they were terrific! Would love to see them at Newport. That said, their new album is a major departure AWAY from anything folky (kind of like Mumford), so maybe this wouldn't be the year for them.
Definitely going to be loaded with conflicts all weekend. Last year I did a bunch of half sets and I wasn't a big fan of that. This year I think I'm going to try to stick mostly to full sets, which will make those decisions pretty tough

My all-time favorite band. I would LOVE to see Guster at the Fort.

Yeah I'm not big on bouncing around for a song or two. I don't usually do that

Yeah I had that thought when I mentioned them, but I'd still love hearing "Jesus On the Radio," "Window," and "That's No Way To Get To Heaven" reverberating around the Fort. Probably would've been better if they'd played a couple years ago when they were touring the acoustic live album
Desaparecidos are a punk band, so I don't think we'd get them.
Trampled By Turtles were there last year and haven't done much since. Not out of the question, but they're not the most exciting act they could bring back.
I'd be happy with any or all of the other ones though
We are currently at 39 artist announcements , last year there was 18 on Saturday and 19 on Sunday. With Friday also becoming a full day this year, that means we have appx 14 artists left. Plus whatever museum announcements as well.
And Emmylou Harris is my Sunday headliner prediction.
Unfortunately this won't happen because she's at FloydFest in Virginia that day. We discussed it earlier because I really wanted her and First Aid Kit to be playing the same day. The only possibility would be Friday. I'd be really happy if she was there though

Would love Sam Amidon! I know he's touring with San Fermin this summer as well, who I think someone mentioned a while back here.

They just tweeted "Folk: We just sent out an emailer which has some info regarding the after shows. Be sure to check Promo/spam folder for all the info!" I didn't get it for some reason, anyone know what it says?

Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
