 I dunno where you copied this band list from, but go take a look at the source. Doesn't pass a smell test.
First, It's not from one twitter account, it's a combined list from two. LollaLeaks, the guy who put out some names (including two that didn't play) last year around the same time Greg Kot did, claims to be unassociated with the other account and that their info is false.
Second, whoever wrote this didn't read or edit very closely. Neither twitter said Skrillex is playing a set featuring Korn. Korn is allegedly playing a set featuring Skrillex and Noisia. And OFWGKTA was only mentioned as an acronym, so the band Wolf Gang isn't really on this list.
Third, the music guy from Time Out Chicago said on his Twitter that Swedish House Mafia and Sigur Ros would be playing, high up on the lineup, and he (and everyone else) are getting behind the Jack White rumor. SHM has gotta headline, they're too big for Perry's and they won't play if it's light out. Jack White's billing at Hangout and Sasquatch implies that he'd be at least listed at #5 among the mentioned headliners. That makes 8 headliners, one more than last year. That doesn't seem plausible. If I have to choose, I'm picking the guy who works for a credible publication rather than some rando on Twitter. | | |
