Pollstar reveals partial Virgin Fest lineup?
On Monday, the Baltimore edition of Virgin Mobile Festival is expected to reveal the rest of its 2008 lineup. However, last night it looks like someone over at Pollstar couldn’t contain their excitement and posted a series of lineup confirmations on the website.
Confirmed by Pollstar?:
Saturday:
Bloc Party, Cat Power, Chuck Berry, Citizen Cope, DJ Dan, Donald Glaude, Duffy, Erol Alkan, Ferry Corsten, Foo Fighters, Gogol Bordello, Jack Johnson, KT Tunstall, Lupe Fiasco, Paramore, Rodrigo Y Gabriela, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, Soulwax, Steve Lawler, The Offspring, The Swell Season, Underworld, WilcoSunday:
Armin Van Buuren, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Chromeo, Deadmau5, Iggy Pop, Lil’ Wayne, Moby, Nine Inch Nails, Pendulum, Richie Hawtin, Stone Temple Pilots, Taking Back Sunday, The Black Keys
Pollstar has since taken down the listings, and while there is no word on their validity, the revealed lineup seems quite plausible. Aside from Kanye West, all the currently announced headliners, and other confirmations appearing on our Virgin Festival outlook page appear.

just kings of leon and rage against the machine.PLEASE GOD!!!add them to this lineup to make this the greatest festival ever
damn i really want to see bloc party, but i cant go the saturday, ill be at APW.
all i have to say is that i am totally satisfied with that line up and to think more will be added sounds great to me - go virgin fest i think you have done it again. it may not have what most call the best line up but they do know how to through a good party and to me that’s all you need
“for one to love music and understand it one should first stop and listen for all music has just one beat and one sound”
Not bad.
To bad I can’t go to this AND lolla… =/
and Underworld? Are they going to be in the tent? I knew the tent has had some big artists before, but that seems really big.
