Tremendous News!

The first round of bands for this year's Pitchfork Music Festival have been announced, and would believe that the line-up already looks awesome. So far, Modest Mouse is headlining on Friday and on Saturday LCD Soundsystem and Raekwon are both throwing down sets. Artists for Sunday include St. Vincent, Lightning Bolt, Sleigh Bells, and Here We Go Magic.

...and PAVEMENT!!!! That's right folks, Pavement. The reunited Pavement will be playing a set on Sunday July 18. Tickets went on sale at noon today, (Writer's Note: Sorry about being so late on this one. I was at work.), and are probably already sold out. Maybe not.

UPDATE:

It looks like tickets aren't sold yet. I'm saying this because I just bought mine. The Pitchfork Music Festival will be held in Union Park in Chicago, Illinois on July 16, 17, and 18.
