It looks like they will be replacing the Beastie Boys in Austin.

it will be wrapped in the FLAG and

    I've been a fan of there's for years but they are not headlining material.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying YYY = BB, but I saw them both at Bonnaroo this year, YYY was definitely more entertaining the the Beasties. Karen O performed with such energy, it really got everyone into it. I could not say the same for the Boys. Even with Nas making a guest appearance, their set was only so-so. But in the end, either would be a conflict with Kings of Leon, so I wouldn't be watching BB or YYY.

    Completely agree. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs set was great...way better than the Beasties. However, I really don't know if they are really headliner material..and I can't help thinking the amount of pressure that must be on then now that they are headlining, ACL, All Points West AND Lollapalooza. I think they were like the 15th band named on the Bonnaroo lineup.

    What I don't understand is the part where he says "as of Thrusday the KOL are still the headliner for the Friday night" why would that change?
    The schedule looks the same to me as far as time and stages, on the TBA spot.
    The only reason Im going to Friday night show is to see the Kings :D

    I agree but they are not headlining All Points West, they go on before Jay Z.
