Fixed it, thanks Levislade. That's what I get for cutting and pasting.

Why oh why do U.S.E and Chromeo have to play on 2 different days? In my dreams I am in the front row for bof' bands. But alas, I cannot afford both days.

Secret guest? So sexy.

let's get the secret guest rumors started: i think it's no age.

think about it: they're touring with abe vigoda, one of the girls in mika miko is dean spunt's girlfriend, and they're already going to be in town for the KEXP parking lot show with mudhoney.

i apologize if everyone already knew this, and i'm just being obvious.

@7 The mainstage and the vera stage are both all-ages. King Cobra and Neumo's are 21+.

I wonder if CSS will stop by to perform before they go to Japan to play the Fuji Rock Festival?

The secret guest: Halo Benders.

The secret guest will be a local band.

Is Fleet Foxes really playing on the main stage, and not on the Neumos Stage as originally posted everywhere on the internets?

Reason 1: Seattle band
Reason 2: going up to BC on Sunday

just as easily could be minus the bear...

3 Questions:
1) How late and where will tix be available day of?
2) any danger of this selling out so day-of-ers could lose out?
3) is there a map of where the stages will be?

Thanks!

Aaron, my advice is to get tickets ahead of time if at all possible. If you're not in town, call a friend or make one on Craigslist. There is some sellout risk, and especially on Saturdays the line to buy day-of tickets (near Broadway and Pike IIRC) gets long in a hurry, does not move fast, and seems to invite a crazy level of space-saving and line-cutting. Take heed.

I think the secret band is The Blood Brothers. all the guys will be there, conditions are perfect.
also, in a related note, i'm trying to win tickets into Bumbershoot, and free airfare there, and the chance to interview bands there, in this sweet contest:

Hey, I'm coming down from BC for the festival but don't know which block it's on exactly. Could someone give me the address??
Thanx!
