I think the announcement was for the additional bands.

yes, the fresh news is the additional bands.  initial line-up was announced 4/28.

Three James Blackshaw shows in june:
6/8 at Issue Project Room
6/9 Mercury Lounge with Marissa Nadler (!)
6/19 Fortune Cookie Basement at Lucky Cheungs (is this the basement of a Chinese restaurant? Talk about a bizarre/random place for a concert)

I'm doing either 6/9 or 6/19.

Highly recommend this for those who enjoy a bit more laid back yet kind of droney festival. Sure wish that I could make it.

so this caught my attention:

Sneaker Pimps NYC ft. Big Boi (Outkast), Cam'rom, The Clipse, The Cool Kids
June 26
Terminal 5

i was hoping it was the trip-hop group on some weird urban trip… turns out it isn't.  boooooo.

Sneaker Pimps…OMG. I was one of the first people in the States to interview them. They came through DC like 4 times that year and every time I saw them I was like their best buddy. I always wondered what happened to them. My favorite time seeing them was with Aphex Twin & Death in Vegas.

oh man. i didnt even read it carefully when i clicked on it, and just made the assumption it _was_ the sneaker pimps. Ah well.

Also - Phoenix is $32.
