In case you missed it, Portishead will be appearing on Saturday!!!
That means they will at least make a stop in the US. With the first set of concert dates announced last week, we can only continue to cross our fingers that more North American dates will follow.

Other acts of note: The Breeders (who are currently preparing their next release), Madness (!!!!), Kraftwerk, M.I.A., Carbon/Silicon (new project from Tony James and Mick Jones) & Love and Rockets.

As this gets closer, I'm sure more bands will be added. We're predicting My Bloody Valentine and Radiohead to make it to the bill as well—just a hunch and in no way based off of outside information.
