With still a few weeks to go before the 2009 Lollapalooza lineup is announced, seemingly every concievable name in the alt/indie-rock universe is being thrown around as a possible additon to this year's stable of acts. And with will over 100 bands slated again for this summer's shindig in Chicago's Grant Park, they're all fair game.
From a very reliable source, here are a smathering of names being tossed around for Lolla 2009:
Of Monteal
Andrew Bird
Theivery Corp
Decemberists
Bon Iver
Glasvegas
Ben Folds
Manchester Orchestra
Deerhunter
Animal Collective
TV on the Radio
Coheed & Cambria
No Age
Atmosphere
Kaiser Chiefs
Band of Horses
Silversun Pickups
Snoop Dogg
Cold War Kids
Passion Pit
Not bad. Plenty of band's Id watch casually with some interest, but no one I'd mark the days on my calendar to see. Atmosphere, No Age and Animal Collective are nice additions, and I'd be interested to see what tricks Snoop pulls out of his sleeve. Still the tentative lineup still needs a few power players, like the Stooges in 2007 or Pixies in 2005. We'll see.
