Looks like I'm gonna avoid the ticket crap for Radiohead at MSG and go straight to Osheaga for Sat/Sun. Is it a given they'd play on Sunday because of the way the poster is organized?

If the prior years are anything to go by, then yes.
I was looking up reviews for 2013 and noted that The Cure played for over 2 hours and 15 minutes that year. Are you all in agreement that it's likely that Radiohead will thus play a full set? As in, equivalent to length and number of songs at their arena shows.

I'm still trying to justify a full-week in Toronto/Montreal going from WayHome to Osheaga, but there's so much overlap. Radiohead still has me on the fence, since between tickets and travel I'd be at $100+ for a MSG show.
Death Cab for Cutie Coeur de Pirate Baauer AURORA Kaleo Allie X SOPHIE MSMSMSM The Dam Truth Foreign Diplomats Dear Rouge
Well this was a surprise, I pretty much only know death cab and baauer. Hopefully some good finds, and the poster still says more to come so expect cage the elephant to be at the top of the next wave of additions.

I think I'm finally back on board for this. $15 a night on Airbnb is dirt cheap for a week in Montreal. Hopefully they toss in another couple decent size names to round this lineup out. As was mentioned, Cage the Elephant makes sense, since they've been touring with bands on the lineup.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
So Osheaga is basically a less appealing Lolla? Could be wrong but this seems like more similarities than most years and I can't spot too many things Osheaga has over Lolla. DCFC and Wolf Parade?

I look at it more like Osheaga is the significantly cheaper Lolla. Also, (although I've never done Lolla), I believe the venue layout and schedules make Osheaga better overall (apparently Lolla is riddled with bad conflicts every year, and is much more of a pain in the ass to get around at).
Really, besides LCD, who does Lolla have that makes it that much more appealing than Osh?

Yay, just finalized plans to attend. Haven't been since 2010, can't wait! The lineup isn't the greatest from all the fests this year, but with Radiohead and a bunch of acts in the "worth seeing" category, it'll still be solid.
Any guesses on the day by day breakdown? We can use conflicts with Lollapalooza as a guide. I also noted that The Lumineers and Flume are both playing Friday per their official websites (they have tour dates the rest of that weekend).
This is what I could find. Some of these are educated guesses
Fri: Red Hot Chili Peppers The Lumineers Grimes Flume Cypress Hill Wolf Parade Tory Lanez Oh Wonder White Lung The Wombats Hiatus Kaiyote Banners
Sat: Lana Del Ray Beirut Foals Todd Terje Jazz Cartier Coleman Hell The Range Jahkoy Elephant Stone
Sun: Radiohead Walk the Moon Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats Elle King Keys N Krates The Paper Kites The Strumbellas BØRNS RÜFÜS DU SOL Misterwives Synapson FEDER

My biggest concern is whether M83 will be on Saturday or Sunday, and if the latter, whether they will play A) on the same stage as Radiohead, or B) right before Radiohead on that other stage.
Option A would be most ideal in terms of getting a great spot for both acts. But they played second to last as a stage closer in 2012, so option B may be most likely.

I hope A happens or I'll have to leave M83 fairly early. No way am I getting a shit spot for my first Radiohead show.

Which "other" stage are you referring to? The 2 main stages are right beside each other, so if M83 played right before Radiohead (option B) there's a good chance that you wouldn't have to miss any of their set (and still snag a great spot for RH).
Here's a map of the grounds if you don't know what I mean:
Ideally (and I think most likely) M83 will be on the River stage 8:30-9:30, and RH will be on the Mountain stage from 9:30- 11. Snag a spot between both and you're golden.

Yup, I was indeed referring to the other adjacent main stage. I did exactly what you suggested in 2010 for The National and Arcade Fire. It worked out fine, but I remember still being further away for both acts than I would have liked.
