The fact that there are spelling errors and that it is hideous should have been a dead giveaway haha.
I love Paste, but this is just hilarious. d'oh!
Agreed. There is nothing about it that would make me think it's real. I can't believe they would put that up there.
they probably didn't think it was that real either but thought it would be a good way to increase traffic to their site. they can (and did) easily just claim they were tricked and apologize.....but people are still flocking to their site.

Boothead asked me to tell you guys that he made this fake and e-mailed it to Paste along with several other publications. He and someone else also made a very real-looking press release and doctored their e-mail to make it look like someone from Superfly sent it. He wanted me to show you guys so that you all don't think Paste is completely retarded haha. Here are all the links to that stuff (the mediafire one is the press release):

For everyone posting about spelling errors, Coachella had four spelling errors on their initial official lineup last night, so that's not necessarily a good barometer.

It has about 1/4 of my wish list. I could live with it. SFA is going to LOVE this, he was really hoping for Lil' Wayne. If only they would add Soulja Boy, he would be in heaven.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

Am I supposed to know who Boothead is? Tell him to stop ruining it for the rest of us.
ehh lighten up man. be mad at paste for not checking sources. they after all are the one who posted it.
Paste is only half the problem, and I agree with ITM in that you can't totally fault these guys who are chomping at the bit to get the scoop. It helps no one when some kids come along and make meticulous plans all in order to dupe these media outlets. That's totally different from making a poster for fun that a media outlet somehow finds and runs with. This was deliberate.
To say that Paste is the problem and "Boothead", or whoever, is blameless is like saying that Philip Morris has no responsibility in the illnesses/deaths of smokers.
I don't think anyone is saying that Boothead is 'blameless'. I don't see what the big deal is anyway. Like everyone else is saying, they should have contacted Roo before throwing it up as quickly as possible. Besides, it's a harmless prank.

^^^For sure, Paste majorly blew it. The egg's on their face. And I'm also not trying to make mountains out of molehills here, but at the same time it's a pain in everybody's ass to go through the whiplash of a prank like this. Bottom line, I think it was a stupid thing to do, and it's cowardly to try to heap all the blame on Paste. That's my opinion.

Wilco, Neil Young, Lil' Wayne and Soulja Boy would be dream. I would never have to attend another festival ever again.
Has anyone given any thought to the buffalo springfield playing hence the crosby/nash tour and jim irsay the colts owner and good friend of stephen stills did tweet that stills says the springfield will tour

Why is egg on Paste's face? I feel like, at this point, everything on the internet pertaining to music festival posters should be taken with a grain of salt.
