Nothing major. br / br / First, the schedule for V Fest a href= http://www.virginfestival.ca/toronto/#/lineup/ target= new title= V Fest schedule is finally up /a and that TBA on Saturday at 4:55PM sure is a chin-scratcher. Nice to know something's still in the works. Or else that's going to be one hour of really awkward silence. Conflicts appear to be kept to a minimum as well, with only a href= http://www.blonde-redhead.com target= new title= BR Blonde Redhead /a versus a href= Http://www.arts-crafts.ca/stars target= new title= Stars Stars /a being the only one I'm unsure about, and the safe bet there will go BR's way if for no other reason than I've yet to see them play a full, proper set. I'm also sort of pleased that there's no one I really want to see before around 3PM either day - no disrespect intended to those who drew an earlier timeslot, but sleep is going to be a precious commodity this weekend. br / br / A href= http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/la-wk-pop16aug16,0,3840192.story?coll=la-headlines-calendar target= new title= LA Times vs Blonde Redhead i The Los Angeles Times /i /a and A href= http://www.ocweekly.com/music/music/platinum-ambition/27609/ target= new title= OC Weekly vs BR i OC Weekly /i /a talked to Blonde Redhead's Kazu Makino. br / br / A href= http://www.spinner.com/artists/the-interface/editors target= new title= Spinner vs Editors Spinner's Interface /a has a session with A href= Http://www.editorsofficial.com target= new title= Editors Editors /a , who will be closing out the second stage on day two. a href= http://www.readexpress.com/read_freeride/2007/09/spelling_melancholy_p-o-p_editors.php target= new title= Express vs Editors i Express /i /a and a href= http://www.clickmusic.com/articles/5486/Interview-Editors.html target= new title= Clik Music vs Editors Clik Music /a also have interviews. br / br / a href= http://www.losingtoday.com/features.php?review_id=1156 target= new title= Losing Today vs Feist Losing Today /a interviews a href= http://www.listentofeist.com target= new title= Feist Feist /a . br / br / a href= http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=14084600 target= new title= NPR vs OR NPR /a discusses a href= http://search.insound.com/search/showrelease.jsp?from=90804 p=INS36265 target= new title= The Stage Names i The Stage Names /i /a with A href= http://www.okkervilriver.com target= new title= OR Okkervil River's /a Will Sheff.
