    really? I think it's a pretty weak lineup

    I think its weak too. I love a few of those bands but the lineup thins out quickly. I would not be a definite for this even if PJ was added.

    Oh I know I was referring to the entire lineup. Dont like Tom Petty, RHCP are pretty bad live (saw them in 02 and 06), Vampire Weekend is a great studio band but horrendous live (they use a backing track for several songs), and Foster The People.... I won't even touch on that choice.

    Whoever posted that Pearl Jam was playing or hinted they were playing ought to be banned. :shifty: Giving us fine east coast folks just a glimmer of hope :fp:

    All in all only two headliners for a three day festival? Where's the third headliner? Or is one them gonna play twice? I say replace RHCP with Pearl Jam and add Arcade Fire and or Kings Of Leon. Other than that pretty solid

    I think the Firefly line-up is better than the Governors Ball (though obviously there's a lot of crossover). Different strokes for different folks, I suppose. Governors Ball line-up is definitely better than I thought it would be.
  • I just realized, even if PJ is the mythical third headliner, it will be announced likely after the first and even second ticket price ranges sell out. So if PJ (or whoever they add, if anyone) is the deciding factor on whether or not you go, you have to pay at least 30 bucks more. :roll:

    Reservations back on!

    Although I wouldn't spring for a 3 day ticket for Ed as a just a special guest. I am up for springing for a single day ticket if they put them up for sale.

    I really wish they would just announce everything before tickets went on sale. I'm not going to buy tickets unless I know for sure PJ/Eddie are going to be there since I don't care for anyone else playing. I'm worried tickets are going to sell out and then they'll announce something and by that point I'm screwed. :(

  • :lol: I think 10C should check with their ticket sales department. They've found the sabateurs! :lol:

    Their twitter feed an hour ago:

    Hey Everyone! We're here and we've gotten word from our Amazon servers that they've identified the deeper issue beyond the servers capacity.


    The sabateurs have been located!!!!!

    Maybe their ticket issues today are a sign that PJ is about to be announced.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.
