    @bg5000: Better Crystal Castles than EITHER Dragons of Zynth or Parts & Labor.

    The Dodos are doing double duty as well. VV couldn't find anybody else to fill out the roster? Were High Places and Crystal Castles busy?

    OMG! a summer festival with no stunt nostalgia acts???

    Beach House music is not going to translate well to Coney Island in the middle of summer, I can already predict.

    The Village Voice! Hmm...what have they been doing lately? Oh yeah: hatin' on ME: [blogs.villagevoice.com]

    Thom Yorke has a tersely worded message for Times New Viking, which he will record at home and send via electronic transfer to reduce his carbon footprint.
