that means they should be in canada around then! Billboard.com has learned that Coldplay, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Jay-Z and Nine Inch Nails will headline the first-ever Pemberton Festival, set for July 25-27 in Pemberton, B.C. The festival is produced by Live Nation and Good Boy Productions. Live Nation Canada CEO Shane Bourbonnais will spearhead LN's efforts on the event. Good Boy Productions is a joint venture between Coldplay manager Dave Holmes and Depeche Mode manager Jonathan Kessler. Also on the bill are My Morning Jacket, the Tragically Hip, Interpol, Flaming Lips and Death Cab For Cutie, along with newer acts like Vampire Weekend, MGMT and Sia. The plan is to feature two stages, a dance stage and more than 50 bands. Pemberton, a two hour drive from Vancouver, is a popular destination area due to its close proximity to Whistler ski resort, site for some competitions for the 2010 Winter Olympics. The event will boast a festival village, camping facilities, an RV Park and shuttle service to and from nearby Whistler, tickets for the Pemberton Festival go on sale through PembertonFestival.com beginning Friday, March 28. Concert-goers will be able to camp on site or sleep in accommodations ranging from motels to top notch luxury hotels in Whistler. The confirmed line up as of today (March 13) is: Coldplay Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers Nine Inch Nails Jay-Z Flaming Lips Interpol Death Cab For Cutie The Tragically Hip Serj Tankian My Morning Jacket Metric Sam Roberts Band Vampire Weekend Black Mountain Minus The Bear Wintersleep Buck 65 Secret Machines MGMT Brazillian Girls SIA Fiery Furnaces Mates of State The Airborne Toxic Event Carolina Liar Grand Ole Party Monte Negro Low Vs Diamond Annie Stela The Crystal Method DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist Junkie XL David Seaman Booka Shade MSTRKRFT M.A.N.D.Y.

July is not long away! So either the album will be out before then (
) or they'll use the festival to debut it.

good news! thanks! this means lp4 is about to be released, by may maybe? or what do you think? because I think coldplay wants to let people listening their new album so they can sing along. So nothing dissapointing happens like in live 8 that people didn't know fix you.

Apparently the tickets are going to be very expensive.
Atleast, that's what the newspaper here is saying... |

Damnit. I always get excited when I see CP playing in Canada. It's only a hop, skip and a jump away from me. But this festival is so not close. haha. oh well. Fantastic lineup! The Flaming Lips would be amazing to see.
Keep these announcements coming! |
