2009 VirginFest Prediction / Wildcard
May 23, 2009 at 01:01 AM UTC

Anyone want to play along?
Okay, it looks like it might be August 29 and 30, with Blink 182 and Weezer on the 30th. Make your prediction about location, headliner for Saturday, and/or other bands. The fun part - Add one band/artist that could realistically play, whose addition would ensure your attendance.
I am in first:
Location: RFK
Saturday Headliner: Pearl Jam
Other bands: I don't know, but I bet others have good guesses
My choice: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band

uh don't you mean 8/30 for Blink-182 and Weezer at Merriweather and i'm not convinced this show has anything to do with Virgin fest…

Oops..Yep! Fixed it.
It might not be the big day, but Pollstar now has both bands, plus Taking Back Sunday and Chester French listed on August 30 in Washington.

Could it be that its tentatively scheduled for Merriweather as a concert but the location is unannounced because it could be moved to a larger location and made Virgin Music Festival?
If there is a Virgin Music Festival I feel…
Broken Social Scene
Pearl Jam
Ben Harper
Animal Collective
Ben Folds
Dan Auerbach/Black Keys
Tom Petty

That might be more confirmation than anything else that that show is Vfest, but it's still up in the air.
