ACL Rumors

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

Life Distilled, an austin blog, brings us what could be the preliminary ACL festival band list. While I don't agree with their characterization of Blue October as "less exciting" it is exciting to see Coldplay in the mix.

Someone “on the inside” saw the list and says confirmed acts are: Widespread Panic, Jimmy Cliff, Allman Bros. Black Crowes, Coldplay, Wilco, Oasis, Robert Randolph, Black Keys.

Here are some less exciting bands that will be there:

Fri 09/23/05 Blue October
Fri 09/23/05 Dave Alvin & The Guilty Men
Fri 09/23/05 DeSol
Fri 09/23/05 Robert Earl Keen
Fri 09/23/05 The Ditty Bops

Sat 09/24/05 Bettye LaVette
Sat 09/24/05 Buddy Guy
Sat 09/24/05 Dierks Bentley
Sat 09/24/05 Low

At least the bottom half of the list seems to be more or less true, as a friend of mine confirmed Blue.

Hey, thanks for spreading the word! The first list was a rumor, but the bottom half I actually dug up myself and has got a 95% sureness to it.

BTW, you can see Blue October any time, why be excitied about the short ACL set? :-)

Well, because there is no reason not to. :)

Blue October sucks, indeed, but I'm down with Robert Earle Keen, he rocks the house. Wilco, Coldplay, Widespread Panic are all great.

Amazing that even now I find myself defending Blue October. (Why this is the case, I'll probably never understand.) I'm always excited to hear they're coming to town, even though I don't intend to make it to the festival.

Obviously it's a moot point now that the official lineup is out, but the first list comes from a Pollstar search of "Zilker Park."

Keep an eye on Pollstar, though to figure out who is playing on what day. It may help in figuring out your ACL schedule.

the only reason you could possibly think Buddy Guy was not one of the MOST exciting acts on the bill would be that you've never seen Buddy Guy...
The fest will be your chance to make up for that obvious deficiency.

Seen him twice.
Blown away both times.
