Probably was initially supposed to release this week, but I'm also guessing they wait til next week so GV doesn't trip over themselves with the Coachella sale. Given that poster, they might need it!

They usually spread things out. Habgout last week. Coachella this week. Jlh follows. And that means Kilby Court gets a day by day breakdown.

Headliners go unopposed here, I believe. Idk which it would be, Phoenix appeal to a broader audience and have a more “headliner”-like production, but Postal Service are the rarer act, even though they did a few LA dates recently.
Interpol & The Walkmen 11.23 I Am Morbid/Suffocation 11.26 King Diamond 11.29 Sadistic Intent/Massacre 11.30 70K Tons Of Metal 2025 Hell's Heroes 2025 Sick New World 2025 Maryland Deathfest 2025

Yeah, top name will go unopposed. The second stage will end before they close it out.
Thats gonna be weird if no VW. Like what the hell are they holding out on and theyre at Kilby Court a week before

I mean I assume we're going to get a proper VW tour this year and they may have just made the calculation that a regular LA show will net them more money, specially if JLH already blew the headliner level money on Postal Service/Death Cab so couldn't offer them top dollar

this does nothing for me, damn. might just put my eggs in the cruel world basket.

I'll be happy with a lot of those names. I missed the DCFC/TPS shows so that works for me. It's been too long since I've seen metric and miike snow and Matt and Kim is always fun. CSS/THE Go team is wonderful to see.

I'd be more surprised than disappointed with the lack of Vampire Weekend, a band I've always liked but never quite loved. Maybe Vampy Weeks really wanted to do their own show here, or some other LA festival got them. I'd imagine JLH 2025 would still be in play for a tour victory lap.
I missed Passion Pit at the last JLH and have heard they're much better live than they used to be (only time I saw them was 2010 - not a good set!), so I'd be fine with them returning. I recently went down a Tegan & Sara nostalgia hole, a band that completely fell off the map for me in the 2010's, so I don't mind them either even if they're not exactly a rare grab.

I went down the Tegan and Sara nostaliga hole recently too, after watching the show based on their teenage years on Freevee. So I'd be down to see them again too.
Phoenix has played here a lot in recent years...wondering if they're going to switch up their setlist at all for this.

Phoenix's setlist has been largely the same for a decade now, including the same medleys! Hey, it works for them and gets them a massive crowd every time, even if they don't make it to the top line anymore.

lol fair, they do pretty much only include a couple new songs. The medleys have gotten better. I love Phoenix so it's fine with me! Someone I know had suggested that for JLH they might do a WAP set but honestly I'd probably still prefer their normal set.

And 3 nights at the Bowl! I was sitting up top for this latest tour in Santa Barbara and everyone around me knew every word to the album, even "Natural Anthem" which I forgot even had lyrics at all!
The Postal Service...a festival headliner with only one album and one song casual listeners would even know. Rest of the lineup sounding mid.
Ticket sales on their current tour would prove you sorely wrong, as others have already pointed out. In fact, I went back and looked at every past Just Like Heaven lineup, and The Postal Service’s ticket sales on their current tour is stronger - by a lot - then any other act the festival has EVER booked. They’re the only band the festival has ever booked that could sell out 3 nights at the Bowl. You may not want to see them but to insinuate they are not popular enough to headline this festival is so off base.
Proposal: GV should combine JLH and TANP into a real indie music festival successor a la FYF. JLH is running out of legacy acts to book, and TANP lineups are fine but a bit thin. There’s no reason that Salt Lake City should have a better indie fest than LA.
