   C3 puts on both Lolla and ACL. The artists overlap on the websites. Tool might be the replacement, but nothing has been announced.

   Has anyone noticed that Lily Allen’s date for the Austin City Music Festival have been taken off her website.Also the scheduled October gig has been removed from Pollstar’s tour guide.What’s up with that?And why is she still being promoted for the show?

    may have trumped planned trips to all other shows…

11. Knox Animal on Apr 28th, 2009 at 10:45 am

    Awesome lineup.. Just bought my tickets!!!

12. Rox on Apr 27th, 2009 at 1:23 pm

    it says 04/28 on the main page in the bottom left corner. i’m excited about what we don’t already know.

13. Ghost that never lies.... on Apr 26th, 2009 at 7:25 am

    website changed a bit too….

    plus originally it said the lineup was coming on 4/28, but now it has been changed to “2009 lineup coming soon”

    wonder what the deal is…..

14. spencer on Apr 22nd, 2009 at 12:42 pm

    if you haven’t seen, these bands are further “confirmed”:

    http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y12/HennyJen/3185_643320478737_29615133_38660901.jpg

    Pearl Jam, Thievery Corporation, B-52s, John Legend, Mos Def, Sonic Youth

    and check out the acl lineup on their website, I think the thievery corporation picture is up right now. I bet that they release one a day till the release. They’ve already done Pearl Jam and now Thievery Corporation, so we’ll see…

15. Anonymous on Apr 20th, 2009 at 4:55 pm

    that has to be a pearl jam confirmation, right?

16. eugene on Apr 20th, 2009 at 4:42 pm

    Just got this tweet from ‘aclmusicfest’….

    “This is pretty cool..I recommend you check it out: http://www.aclfestival.com/lineup.aspx“

17. teez. on Apr 17th, 2009 at 2:09 pm

    suggestion box: book austin’s most bad-ass band, the sword. represent local, we’ve seen ghostland enough already. plus these acl hippies need a little metal in their granola-band-line-up.

18. cody on Apr 15th, 2009 at 3:22 pm

    since ACL and Lolla are both run by C3
    expect a ton of crossover bands
    so check out lolla’s confirmed and assume a bunch of those will play ACL
    like the eels or the dead weather

19. Anonymous on Apr 15th, 2009 at 12:01 am

    Both Wilco and Ben Harper have albums due out this summer with tours planned yet no Austin dates. I’m thinking ACL is in their futures. Also makes sense for Jack White’s new band the dead weather to be there. Just speculation but wouldn’t be suprised

20. ernie* on Apr 15th, 2009 at 12:00 am

    2009 Outside Lands
    PEARL JAM • DAVE MATTHEWS BAND • BEASTIE BOYS
    INCUBUS • BLACK EYED PEAS • M.I.A. • JASON MRAZ • WEEN
    THE MARS VOLTA • THIEVERY CORPORATION • MODEST MOUSE

    mmmmmmmm?

21. Zack Lyke on Apr 11th, 2009 at 9:24 pm

    did anyone else see that DMB, Pearl Jam AND Beastie Boys are all rumored at Outside Lands?

    What the fuck - I want a unique ACL, not San Francisco garbage.

    Bring on Faith No More.

22. Texas still sucks D on Apr 10th, 2009 at 12:50 pm

    I have a mega huge raging boner right now

23. Toddalee on Apr 8th, 2009 at 1:18 pm

    Hey “Texas sucks D”. Where exactly do you live my hateful little friend? Because say what you will about the rest of the state of Texas (though I would put it up against the remaining 49 anyday) but if you think Austin sucks then you are just a clueless, raging idiot. I’ve been to all the majors and ACL is one of the best run, high quality and fan friendly fests of them all.

24. harry on Apr 8th, 2009 at 12:38 pm

    Sarah Siskind is basically a Bon Iver confirmation.

25. Texas sucks D on Apr 7th, 2009 at 1:45 pm

    This festival would be cool as shit if only it wasn’t located in the worst state. Id rather give myself a dirty sanchez than have to go to this festival

26. Sweet John on Apr 7th, 2009 at 12:45 pm

    Ok.. So I saw all the little equations.. Here is how it goes.. Lets do it rock paper scissors style.

    ACL beats Lolla
    Bonnaroo beats ACL
    Coachella beats Bonneroo
    Summerfest beats Coachella
    SXSW beats everything else.

    Any questions?

27. Quincy on Apr 7th, 2009 at 12:07 pm

    omg omg omg. PJ, DMB, Beastie Boys, and Thievery!!!

28. Anonymous on Apr 7th, 2009 at 11:16 am

    The advanced tickets just went on sale.

29. bobbyrisigliano on Apr 6th, 2009 at 1:45 am

    It says confirmed by an insider. Which is pretty much like a rumor. And i like how you originally put a link to Consequence of Sound, which is the site that you’re posting on. Someone needs to show you how to use the internet i think?

30. Alex on Apr 6th, 2009 at 12:22 am

    DMB is confirmed according to this site. Nothing official from DMB itself though.

    where is pearl jam confirmed at?

37. there_is_no_spoon on Mar 30th, 2009 at 11:48 pm

    Looks like we can add the B-52’s, Sonic Youth, John Legend and Thievery Corporation to the rumored artist list. With the exception of Sonic Youth can’t say these additions do anything for me.

38. masdf on Mar 30th, 2009 at 10:12 pm

    does anyone know when the lineup comes out???
    i really wanna know or if theres a leaked one

39. Anonymous on Mar 28th, 2009 at 1:33 am

    Last year the tickets were on sale at least a good month and a half before the lineup was announced

40. harry on Mar 27th, 2009 at 9:42 pm

    Don’t expect C3 to release the lineup before tix go onsale. They never have and they never will.

41. there_is_no_spoon on Mar 27th, 2009 at 7:29 pm

    Black Star reunion anyone?

42. Sean on Mar 27th, 2009 at 6:05 pm

    If these tickets are really going on sale on April 7th, we better see a complete confirmed line-up soon. These trips are investments and while responsibility is gladly left behind at the concert, it tends to take a little to make it there.
    Please? Soon?

43. Alex Young on Mar 26th, 2009 at 10:29 pm

    The PBS article is misleading. Whoever reposted it added an “l” to Pear Jam.

    Did you even read the entry?

45. Anonymous on Mar 26th, 2009 at 8:30 pm

    How is twofeetthick.com a source in which you would confirm an act?

46. Rob on Mar 26th, 2009 at 8:10 pm

    ^ amen to that!

47. Mark on Mar 24th, 2009 at 4:18 pm

    yadda yadda yadda…each festival is different and has its own pros and cons.

    Let’s just appreciate each for what they offer.

48. Tim on Mar 23rd, 2009 at 9:30 pm

    Sasquatch has the non stop music-camp-party like Roo does, has MUCH better scenery, and you can get close enough to see your favorite acts without stage camping.

49. mello as hello on Mar 22nd, 2009 at 9:08 pm

    No festival can even be ranked up with Bonnaroo except for Roth because no other festival has the non stop music-camp-party like Roo does, again besides Roth.

50. peter scott burrage on Mar 22nd, 2009 at 11:03 am

    coachella > LOLLA.
    bonnaroo > coachella
    rothbury > coachella
    bonnaroo > rothbury.

    hah

    Kings of Leon 09 = Jack Johnson 08

52. todd on Mar 7th, 2009 at 9:05 pm

    oh snap

53. Jake on Mar 7th, 2009 at 2:40 pm

    Oh wow..Kings of Leon :/

54. mathematics on Mar 7th, 2009 at 10:59 am

    You obviously haven’t been to rothbury as it trumps all

55. johnnyd on Mar 7th, 2009 at 10:48 am

    Lolla = Bonnaroo = Coachella = ACL = Rothbury

56. oops on Mar 7th, 2009 at 7:10 am

    Justine you did the math wrong….

57. Justine on Mar 3rd, 2009 at 9:22 am

    Coachella > Lolla + Bonnaroo + ACL

58. Justin on Feb 9th, 2009 at 1:53 pm

    Does anyone have a clue who might be playing this one this year? I don’t think I can make Lollapalooza or Bonnaroo, Coachella just isn’t my thing either….anyways, just curious as to any rumors….
