So far I am planning to see Justin Townes Earle, She & Him, Surfer Blood, Superchunk, The xx, the Pains of Being Pure at Heart, and Japandroids.

I hope they're planning on coming to Chicago if they do a reunion tour. i would think so especially since their booking agency and old record label are chicago-based. i was able to catch them at the touch & go 25th anniversary thingy at the hideout block party a few years ago. it was glorious.
