yeah I don't remember the exact translation for the spanish clue....and there were parts we hadn't deciphered yet.....it had lots of words,profound could have been one of them.....does anyone remember the parts we had gotten?
I am thinking the clue part of the message was the "We are really busy, but im sure you all will understand" sayig the line up will be out tonight/ tomorrow

Personally, I'm hoping that the "three certain birds" clue means that Bob Dylan and the Band are going to be there. It would be absolutely EPIC. It was heavily rumored last year and it really killed me when they weren't on the lineup.
Ditto -- it would be awesome.
It would be awesome but I don't think it would be the same without Rick Danko.

the spanish was "If some clues seem (something...dark?) then (something) alleviate (something) more profound." Yeah, I'm not too helpful, but that's what I can remember. Anyone else know it?
and p.s. bonna-djs, if you're having fun taking requests while you laugh at us, I could go for some Decemberists!

...It's the great lost clue. OH NO, I DID NOT MEAN TO MENTION 'LOST' AGAIN!
But you did!!
Charlies imaginary band will not be playing and don't believe what he wrote on his hand and the last few things he was not saying
I know people are saying this means Oasis, but but the clue says his imaginary band won't be playing. And there are two more parts to the clue - not to believe what he wrote on hos hand (not Penny's boat) and the last few things he wasn't saying. I think the last part might be a reference to the list he was not saying, but writing, of his "greatest hits" in life. But I don't know what that means. All I know is that there doesn't seem to be any way to tie the last two parts of the clue to Oasis at all, and the first part suggests they won't be playing.

sadly - i had posted the spanish stuff on a word document so i could figure out all the suggestions and smush it all together before i put it into the translator... and then i didnt save it as i THOUGHT that i'd have it on the thread to refer back to.

Consensus among the Oasis camps is that his imaginary band won't be playing means Driveshaft isn't playing...but the band they're based on WILL. As for the other parts of the clue, I don't know how to relate them to Oasis. I thought of the GH list too, but I can't figure out how to tie that to any music. It could just be that the last parts of the clue were to make it rhyme / sound better / sneak some Lost theories in there. We lostaholics like to talk.

i would love it if WEEN was on the line up, burt at this point i don't think they would be quite so blatant....considering all the other clues have had some serious ambiguity.

i really think "not Penny's boat" HAS to mean something... i just can't figure out what.

Ah, okay, that helps with the first part. I can't be sold on it until the other parts make sense though. And I'm not getting anywhere...
Hey folks! Since the other thread has apparently imploded even further, I thought I'd repost my speculations here. If others have said this stuff, I'm sorry. I'm just reposting what disappeared from last night.
Ok, for clue #10 "look to the center of europe to get the sound, but the band comes form all around." I came up with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. A quick googling reveals that the center of Europe is (supposedly) in Lithuania, and a Wikipedia check says that Anthony Kiedis, lead singer, is of Lithuanian descent. That fulfils the "look to the center of europe to get the sound" part. Given that Flea is from Australia, and the other members, near as I can tell, are just American, I think that together they round out the "but the band comes from all around" part.
I am convinced that "What is in the desert isnt." refers to Oasis, but I think it's saying that they won't show. "What is in the desert (Oasis), ISN'T (going to be there)" At least, that's what I'm telling myself

But that doesn't explain the "look to the center of europe to get the sound" that explains the band comes from all around.....but their sound certainly isn't central european.....Imean that's definitely interesting, good leg work but I don't think the sound part is fulfilled
