Pictchfork Music Fest 2k9

Last week, pitchfork announced that the fourth annual Pitchfork Music Festival would jump off at Union Park July 17-19. Save the date and book any necessary flights, this should be good gauging from the bands already released. The bands already released are found below...

Friday- "Write the Night: Set Lists by Request"
Built to Spill
The Jesus Lizard
Yo La Tengo
Tortoise


Saturday
The National
Pharoahe Monch
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart


Sunday
Grizzly Bear
The Walkmen
Vivian Girls


If you noticed, Friday night bands will be participating in a new series called "Write the Night: Set Lists by Request." You, the audience, vote on which songs all four bands-- Built to Spill, the Jesus Lizard, Yo La Tengo, and Tortoise-- will play. It'll work like this: When you buy your ticket, you'll get a confirmation email. That confirmation email will include a link to a page where you can vote on which songs from each band you want to hear. Super sick brah...

Keep in mind that this is just the first announcement, and more bands will be added. Sunday is shaping up to be amazing.
