It's been a while since I've filtered the website (and not my
Twitter account, which you should be following) with
Lollapalooza rumors, so I'll get back on base.
Yesterday, it was pretty much revealed through several sources and suspicious scheduling that
A Perfect Circle are set to be one of the six main headliners at this year's festival. So, for those that need a refresher, that makes four confirmed headliners:
Eminem,
Foo Fighters,
Muse (all three completely confirmed), and A Perfect Circle.
With two headlining spots remaining (and three Perry's Place, the electronic/dance stage, headliners still unnamed), there have been speculation for a small handful of artists, including;
Coldplay,
My Morning Jacket, and now
Death Cab for Cutie.
Rumors, however, became even more interesting after Perry Farrell
revealed in the March/April issue of
Relix that,
“I can’t tell you who’s gonna be headlining this year, but one of the headliners is a dance act." Early rumors indicate that the probable act will be either Justice, Deadmau5, who played the festival two years ago, or the Chemical Brothers. Daft Punk was also mentioned, but chances of them performing again seem like a disillusioned dream.
The festival's Last.fm page, which has every artist confirmed or semi-confirmed for the weekend, has also listed Justice. Again, it's not a confirmation, but a reasonable suspicion for the French duo's speculative appearance. From this point, I'd make them the most likely headliner to be named next.
Outside of headlining rumors, several acts have also been added to the billing, including; Arctic Monkeys, Surfer Blood, and Tennis. It may also be within reason to assume that the Vaccines will make the lineup. The group is currently touring with the Arctic Monkeys and have no Chicago dates scheduled around August 5-7.
Stay tuned to Bears and Bullets for any and all rumors and information regarding the annual festival through the coming weeks ...
, I'm slowly coming around.
LP on Letterman. Again, the naming might throw some people off, but that shouldn't be distracting anyone at this point.
