I just put $160 x 2 down for VIP tix. David Byrne is great.. Was told the Wu Tang is other headliner. I typically know 1/10th of the bands but dont care. I learn the groups while throwing down drinks in my beautiful downtown. I've been every year (although 2 yrs in a row we had friends wedding, that was LAME). You dont get many opportunities to rock out in an urban setting, like we do at 80/35. Complain if you like, message boards are full of complainers. Go STATE! Proud to be ONE

Wu tang would be awesome, any guesses based on the video? The only one that I got beside David Byrne and st. Vincent is Deerhunter (walkin shot), the rest I have heard guesses of Kid Cudi, Walk the Moon, Ice Cube, and Face to Face. Will be fun whoever it is.....

I couldn't pick up on much. Sweaters in the main video could be a reference to Weezer, Yo La Tengo, or (more likely) The Neighbourhood. The astronaut screams AWOLNATION to me, but could be Walk the Moon or a number of other bands. I'll take a swing at Robert Plant for the gardening and plant references.

Little Blimp is The Joy Formidable's newest single, but that's just wishful thinking since they're my favorite band.

Yo La Tengo played a few years back so I doubt it would be a return. Weezer would be sweet, Walk the Moon okay, I think the plant is Tea Leaf Green....

How about the fact that her tiny baby sweater had a... FRIGHTENED RABBIT on it?

I'm going with them as one of the guesses.

Also the astronaut could have been a reference to Astronautilus...

I look forward to next week and finding out who these bands will be, at least on the first announcement.
