So how do the clues match up now?

[legend]

3 birds, add one more?

That fits no one that is on that list.

Has anyone matched all the clues up to the released list?

[Sköldpadda]

Oh yeah it does.

* Abigail Washburn & The Sparrow Quartet featuring Bela Fleck *

A sparrow quartet is three birds, add one.

quartet means four, last time I checked. If there was a quartet plus Washburn then that'd be 4 birds plus 1.

[legend]

They wouldn't be dropping clues for Bela Fleck (as good as he is).

[drbrainfreeze]

The clues make little to no sense...i looked them over again and they were almost purposely misleading..

abigail washburn and the sparrow quartet...your joking right ...I doubt they would make up a clue for abigail.

Any of you ever read the Dark Tower series?

[gogogajoob]

church, steeple one?

where's ani defranco?

or for that matter did any of the updated artist profiles make it into the lineup?

[legend]

I always thought the Church thing was "Houses of the Holy"

But what do I know.

[bwell]

clouds taste like this and hard thing, soft thing obviously played out.

[steveternal]

The "europe" one I guess was Gogol, and perhaps the "Memphis isn't Allbany" was MIA.

[chroniclurker]

yeah MIA MAI and AIM all lead to M.I.A. I suppose...hard substance/soft substance never made sense for Iron and Wine to me...I don't think you can characterize a liquid as soft, especially a hard (as in alcoholic) beverage...

[spindlest]

Would the church and steeple clue be for Robert Randolph's Revival?

very well could be especially if the revival part is blind boys of alabama or something.

well last time i jumped in a pool it didnt hurt too much..

[ttown]

im going on a limb but i think.3 certain birds add one.means zep will be there to give us four headliners.mostly wishful thinking

I have to agree with this one, everyone thinks it is Iron & Wine but who refers to wine as soft? Really? I mean I haven't really thought of an alternative answer to the clue but, to me, it seems like a silly answer for that clue....but then again I am the one who is obviously wrong so what do I know...haha

well i just looked up wine terms and found this:

soft: A soft wine is one that is round and fruity, low in acidity, and has an absence of aggressive, hard tannins.

so the clue makes sense after reading that.

[purplefuzzystuff]

No kidding? Well you learn something new everyday, thanks chrisv...I don't feel as bad anymore....I'll give karma when I can

Jump from much greater heights. It'll hurt

I'm glad someone started this thread. I've been wondering the same thing. I'm suspicious that they specifically came up with clues to make people wrongfully think the more heavily rumored bands would be there. I mean, who is going to guess the Sparrow Quartet when they all want to see the Black Crowes or Counting Crows? How about the More than one Manchester thing? I was really hoping for Oasis or the Verve myself.

[musicguy1982]

I thought Hard Substance/Soft Substance was a clue for Pearl Jam.

I was just about to say that. =P It's definitely meant to be Pearl Jam.

[arizonalovesyou]

i thought the janice joplin clue was pearl jam and hard/soft substance was iron & wine?
