The roster for the three-day fest, which takes place over Memorial Day weekend, also includes R.E.M. tourmates Modest Mouse and the National, the Flaming Lips doing a "UFO Show" that features a replica of a flying saucer and premiering their long-in-the-works film Christmas on Mars, the Breeders, and a new collaboration between Mike Patton and Dan the Automator called Crudo. - Full lineup
