If this were even last year I would think that is true. Portugal has had pretty massive success over the last 12 months though. It's the difference of Portugal who is the third band listed on Sunday at Coachella vs Peter Bjorn and John who was the 21st band listed on the original Bunbury poster. Definitely a valid point. I could (and maybe I'm totally giving people the benefit of the doubt) see bands that do a lot of the same promotion's venues on tours to perhaps give them a discount on a festival if it is a late booking. I was also just thinking how weird the initial posted looked with 3 names at the top and then 2 under it and then the normal undercard billing layout. I've never seen someone lay bands out like that before. Agreed that the previous comment is a valid point. My take on the layout of the poster is that they were trying to claim 5 headliners. I never saw it as like a headliner tier A and headliner tier B

This alleged lineup addition is welcome news. Now that pretty much every lineup I care about is out, I have a gaping hole in my life when I don't have a lineup to constantly stress over.

April-May are the hardest months. Almost all the news is out and all we can do is wait for festival season to start

Not trying to start a bunch of b.s. rumors, but I have 3 friends who work for Promowest Productions and they hinted to me that "the Bunbury lineup is not complete"... One of the friends sent me a riddle that he said is related to Bunbury...anyone good at this type of thing? Here is what he sent - Seems like someone needs a decryption method? 54 6f 6e 69 67 68 74 20 77 65 20 6c 65 61 72 6e 20 6f 75 72 20 6c 65 73 73 6f 6e 20 61 6e 64 20 62 6f 61 72 64 20 75 70 20 61 6c 6c 20 74 68 65 20 64 6f 6f 72 73 01001001 00100000 01110100 01110010 01101001 01100101 01100100 00100000 01101101 01111001 00100000 01100010 01100101 01110011 01110100 00100000 01110100 01101111 00100000 01101100 01100001 01111001 00100000 01100101 01110110 01100101 01110010 01111001 00100000 01110011 01101001 01101110 01100111 01101100 01100101 00100000 01100100 01100101 01101101 01101111 01101110 00100000 01101001 01101110 00100000 01101101 01111001 00100000 01101000 01100101 01100001 01100100 00100000 01110100 01101111 00100000 01110010 01100101 01110011 01110100 00101110 41 6e 20 61 6e 6e 69 76 65 72 73 61 72 79 2c 20 61 6e 64 20 61 20 66 75 6e 65 72 61 6c 20 74 6f 20 66 6f 6c 6c 6f 77 2e

The first string of letters and numbers:
"Tonight we learn our lesson and board up all the doors"
The 1's and zeros translate to this:
"I tried my best to lay every single demon in my head to rest"
The last bit is :
"An anniversary, and a funeral to follow."
I am not getting any results really for any of that. Hopefully someone else will have better luck with that part.

Funeral makes me think of band of horses...I love their stuff but not familiar with too many other song titles. I think they are playing Bogart's late in the year though

I did not expect this new development when I randomly checked in. Great detective and decoding work by everyone involved! I have zero clue what this could be but I cant imagine someone would go as far as to send an encryption for lyrics or poem or whatever for Band of Horses or Collective Soul. Just my opinion but that seems like a lot of work for a payoff that doesnt warrent that effort.

I don’t think he would go into this much effort if it was a lower end band. I really think it’s a coheadliner to go with Incubus. I would love to think it’s Brand New because they said 2018 will be their last year...but all the supposed allegations against Jesse makes it not seem possible at the current point in time.

Just noticed Brand New's website is "www.fightoffyourdemons.com" You may have already known that but I did not. All of clues could count towards them boarding up the doors. The band having a funeral since they will no longer be active. Not sure if this is the anniversary of anything. So it's not impossible. It's also possibly your buddy knows how much you like Brand New and is just messing with you.

Wasn't Smashing Pumpkins on a hiatus or something?...Maybe them?

I believe they are doing well in Chicago, NY and Connecticut or something like that but all the other venues have a pretty large availability of seats still. Especially for a band on a reunion run. I can't see Bunbury booking them. The Columbus show isn't selling well either, just looked and the lower bowl seems to be fairly wide open still. Probably doesn't help they are charging over $100 a ticket for seats.

Maybe Eminem? He hadn't toured in a while and the rap category is a little light this year

Would it be irresponsible to get hopes up for Fleetwood Mac? Bunbury wouldn't really make sense for them... but timing wise.. and stretching the meaning of those clues...
