Pearl Jam Confirms Lollapalooza 2007 Appearance, Lineup Still Not Official

update for full lineup on 4/11/07)

You may have heard it here first and it's looking that it's finally official -- Pearl Jam is confirmed for Lollapalooza 2007.

The early-bird tickets for the festival just went on sale for $165, reduced slightly from the full price of $195 (once the lineup is officially announced).

And speaking of that lineup, the Wikipedia page for Lollapalooza has been all abuzz since the early tickets started going on sale for the 2007 fest. As of the time this gets published, here's who's "confirmed" by outside sources above and beyond Pearl Jam...

* !!!
* Death by tire iron
* Annuals
* Charlie Musselwhite
* Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
* David Vandervelde
* Ghostland Observatory
* Jack's Mannequin
* LCD Soundsystem
* Lupe Fiasco
* The New Amsterdams
* Pavement (????)
* Pearl Jam
* Peter Bjorn and John
* Peter DiStefano
* Rhymefest
* The Roots
* Satin Peaches
* Son Volt

More on this from us when it comes our way -- and I really can't wait for this year's lineup to be official. It's so nice to have something so big and so well-done right in my backyard.

Yeah -- that Pavement piece probably should have been removed. I didn't check those sources myself, assuming that the faithful at Wikipedia would...

Yawn.

I'm all for tooting the horn as loud as possible (and lord knows we do it too on the stories we've broken), but can you really employ the "You Heard It Here First" tactic when the post in question links to Jim Derogatis' scoop? Wouldn't you have heard it there first?!

We at Live Music Blog only toot our own horn when other people don't find it editorially reasonably to do so. It's sort of our mantra...

I guess it's terribly obvious how quickly I wrote that post...so thanks to all who choose to come *correct* me. Pavement. "here first" -- Yeesh!

Very nice line up. I like (and i ve seen) Clap your Hands, Pavement, Pearl Jam and !!!.
Strange return of Pavement ("i don't like...Smashing Pumpkins"); Don't miss Clap your hands (nice with their first album and firm in the second despite the low fi on some tracks).
Enjoy if you go there and I hope i will get some tickets from this event for my blog.
