Langerado Lineup Confirmed
The lineup for the 5th Annual Langerado Music Festival is now officially out there, and it looks pretty damn good. Save all your anti-jamband bullshit for Coachella, ya hipster doofus, this one’s gonna be down and dirty.

Good lord, I know it’s a pipe dream, but what I wouldn’t give to see Trey take the stage with Stevie Malkmus and MMW. Greyboy, Toots, Tea Leaf Green, The Slip, Bela, moe., Panic, and look out for Band of Horses, Apollo Sunshine, Sharon Jones and Assembly of Dust — this thing is a dream lineup for this here sucker.
Tickets go on sale to the public December 1st, and the late-night shows will be announced shortly. Read on for the full lineup, and let us know what you think — are you a holier-than-thou hipster that’s pissed there’s no Death Cab for M.

"Look, ma'am," I began with arrogant charm, "I make no apologies for wearing my love for the most underrated mostly non-American band in American rock history on my short sleeve for the world to see. You know how they say if we didn't jump into World War II that all of Europe would be speaking German right now? Well, if The Band hadn't hung 'em up in 1976 we'd all be singing Canadian-Injected Southern Country Soulful Rock right now. You don't assemble a collection of fucking talent into one band often enough that I'm willing to just brush them into the dustpan of misplaced rock. 
I’m somewhere in the middle – would like to see a few more indie bands, but its Florida in March – so I’ll save my black pants and obscure 70s euro-metal rock tshirt for Bonnaroo :)
Rodrigo y Gabriela – the spanglish Mars Volta!!!!
See you at these sets!

Rodrigo y Gabriela
Yeah, I’ve gotta do some research on some of these bands I’ve never heard of — but the Spanglish Mars Volta is a hilarious description of anyone, so that’ll top my list of bands I need to read up on.
I’m definitely excited to see Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, and I’m pumped to see if Toots takes credit for inventing reggae like he did at the 2005 Langerado fest.
Raconteurs, Brazilian Girls, and Thievery Corp are the rumors for additional artists

nice to see them returning to their jamband roots with this one. it’s got every major jam band in the game. very interesting decision, as the last few concerts they were doing the cross over act branch out thing. i think the whole phish thing and miami backlash snapped them back into reality that they needed to appeal to their base.
