nobody ever said they were playing bonnaroo, the blog over at rollingstone.com picked up the rumor, another site had the rumor as well, but that was also a blog

yesterday's release about Lollapalooza is legit, yeah 10club has not commented on it, but why would they, the festival's want to announce their headliners, yes the info leaked, but that won't make 10club any more likely to announce the show if they have it worked out that the organizers at Lollapalooza break the news first...remember when people here picked up on the RSS feed the last time around, last march, well something similar happened for bonnaroo this year, one of the fans picked up on the site being prepped for the announcement the next day, the lineup leaked and was all over the major news sources within hours (billboard, pollstar, jambase, etc.) a couple hours later the organizers for bonnaroo, superfly, had signed up on the bonnaroo message board and explained how dissappointed they were that they didn't get to make the announcement, after all the months of hard work... so just think of it like this for pj at Lollapalooza, it's their's to announce, not pj, and not a chicago reporter

with that said, i have no doubt whatsoever about the billboard article. jonathan cohen has always handled pj news releases over there, and his report stated that he had sources independant of those of the chicago reporter, hell he just put up an article early this morning about ed inducting REM into the hall, he's legit

and this chicago reporter, jim derogatis... he might sound familiar around here, yeah he wrote that shitty review about their shows in chicago last year, yada yada yada, and i know his affinity for the band has gone down over the years, but he is a well respected music critic and reporter,and just check out his book Milk It... he's been following the seattle/alt rock scene for a long time now, he would not tie his name to a pj/Lollapalooza announcement without being 100% sure

soooooooooo, rejoice you southern folks, Lollapalooza will happen, and unless shit completely hits the fan between now and whenever pj announces their us plans for the summer, the handful of US shows will most certainly include a swing through the south, i've been saying it ever since they announced the us legs last march, and yeah we have never been given any reason from the band or 10club why the south was not included the first time around... they would not skip the south completely, it would just be a horrible and fuckin shitty thing to do, fuck everybody that tells you guys to quit your bitchin etc, keep this thread going for as long as it takes for the shows to be announced, it is inevitable now that billboard annouced us shows for the summer, cohen was the same guy who reported the x-mas single, noting that summer touring plans were in the works

IT'S GUNNA HAPPEN

PS...see you all this summer
