I don't know, after their recent less than superb albums, Weezer might not be a headliner. Dylan isn't known to be a great live act, but he is a legend nonetheless. And i think Beck is less popular than the already announced headliners. at least right now he is
i would say at the present time, the Foos, STP, JJ and Kanye are bigger than Beck and Weezer. And Dylan might not be the best fit for vfest, meaning he isnt a headliner. That being said, the thought of Bob fucking Dylan "opening" for anyone else is blatant sacrilige.
if Beck, Dylan, and Weezer all play, ill most likely be there

I could see Beck or Weezer being added. It's possible their touring schedules were still being put together when Seth and Virgin Mobile felt pressure to release information to compete with every other festivals full lineup announcements.

Ahh, I'd love Beck and Weezer.
Monday the 28th is going to be a great day.

Bob Dylan would feel the spot of old rockers from way past. Like at first virgin fest they had the Who and last year they had Cheap Trick.

Beck and Weezer would get me to consider it. I still cant understand how Jack Johnson is headlining a festival, let alone like 10 of them

Seth is probably chuckling about all the speculation we are coming up with the bands we are throwing out. Either we are right and this should be a good lineup or we are way wrong and things all go to hell.

I guess Limp Bizkit was good enough when they were selling out Fall Edition HFStivals but now that the worm has turned there is no band (not even Creed or Nickleback) that get as much scorn as Mr. Durst's crew.
For about three years in the late 90's/early 00's no band mattered more than Limp Bizkit. They meaned more then than Wilco or Arcade Fire do now. The only people who care about them is persons refined who have heard every track on Pitchfork's year end top 100.
"Significant Other" is owned by a lot of people who only own about fifty CDs. More people indentified with Fred Durst and felt what he was saying then ever will with Jeff Tweedy. What can you feel with Jeff Tweedy? Righteous anger that they screwed up your order at Starbucks, that your new retro "kicks" have been scuffed and your librarian glasses aren't ironic enough?
Finally, Dave Grohl is a far bigger a-hole/douchebag and has far less talent than Mr. Durst. Two monkeys in a room for about fifteen minutes could bash out the entire Foos oeuvre.
You may not admit to it, but Limp Bizkit weren't the great Satan everyone says they were. They've just become the easiest punchline. The leaders of tommorow will be Bizkit fans who bought "Results May Vary" the day it came out. Not people who get visibly erect at a Jens Lekman concert.
Good luck with Stone Temple Pilots.
