I think the most likely bands playing the festival will be ones with new albums out, giving them something to promote, along with not coming to DC in the months leading up to the show. Velvet Revolver breaks this, as they're playing 930 soon, but all the other announced acts fit into this category. That being said, likely acts:

White Stripes (maybe too big)
Bjork (maybe too big)
Amy Winehouse
Neko Case
Underworld
Chemical Brothers
Ummmm . . . . considering The Who & Chili Peppers headlined last year, & The Police/Beastie Boys are headliners this year, NO ONE you mentioned above is remotely close to too big to play VFest.
I meant too big to not have already been announced as a headliner. I mean, I doubt we'll get The Police, Beastie Boys, Smashing Pumpkins, The White Stripes AND Bjork. It seems somewhat unreasonable.

Don't underestimate the power of Seth's networking abilities. For 2 days worth of action, I could see it . . . . Matter of a fact, I think it's a wrap that we get the White Stripes. Far as Bjork, I could give a fuck . . . ;)
What makes you so sure that we'll get The White Stripes?
I think he's saying don't be surprised if The White Stripes ends up on the bill. I don't think they're too big…well maybe Meg's? But that's a good thing, right?

Damn skippy it is, she's one hell of a midget smuggler. :D
I think the Stripes at Merriweather is more likely. Vfest already has headliners.
This is all useless banter! Release the fucking lineup already! We're busy people! Well, maybe not. There is the useless banter after all.
let's get a few out of the way now…

White Stripes were going to do both V & Lolla, but Jack's wife is due that wknd

no Daft Punk

no Bjork

NIN in Russia
C! L! U! T! C! H!

You won't be the only one!!!

Believe me, sadly, that's not going to happen.

I don't think that even Seth the Mighty Tooth Fairy could make that happen.

Now, The Jesus & Mary Chain; that's another story. But my guess is that the band might want to see how a few of their West Coast shows go before they commit to anything else. Then again, maybe they are booked but just aren't ready to announce further dates yet.
speaking of gnr i heard that slash said he wouldnt mind doing a few shows with gnr with all the original memebers
