Aside from the release of The Dark Knight, something I’m personally a bit more excited about, this upcoming weekend will also mark another edition of the Pitchfork Music Festival. While Consequence of Sound’s Michael Roffman and Matt Sanders will be there to provide coverage of the event, for those of you who won’t be gracing Chicago’s Union Park, you’ll still have an opportunity to watch all the festivities online.

Pitchfork will stream a majority of this weekends on a live webcast via the festival’s website. And when we say “majority”, we mean it. After all, just look at the acts scheduled to appear on the webcast:
