Death Cab for Cutie and more added, full schedule now available!

Just added to complete the 2008 Festival lineup:
Death Cab For Cutie / Superchunk / Tapes ‘n Tapes / The Weakerthans / Two Gallants / Sweet Water / Cheb I Sabbah & 1002 Nights featuring Riffat Sultana / Vicci Martinez / Black Eyes and Neckties / Tiptons Sax Quartet / Mono in VCF / Thee Emergency / Vince Mira / Manooghi Hi / Feral Children / Speaker Speaker / The Physics / The Tripwires / Sage / Grieves / Choklate / Das Vibenbass / The Valley / Velella Velella / The Maldives / Shim / Shane Tutmarc & The Traveling Mercies / Mariee Sioux / The Round (featuring Damien Jurado, Jen Wood, Buddy Wakefield and others) / The Lonely H / Nick Vigarino / The Staxx Brothers / Lushy / New Faces / School of Rock: Northwest All-Stars / Jazz Northwest: WSU Faculty Ensemble

And that’s just the start… there’s of course three stages of comedy (and the new comedy pass system that will help guarantee you a seat in this super-popular part of the Festival) including Zach Galifianakis, Janeane Garofalo, Marc Maron, Greg Behrendt, and Doug Benson. Plus NPR’s “The Sound of Young America” Live with host Jesse Thorn, MTV’s “Human Giant” stars (Aziz Ansari, Paul Scheer and Rob Huebel) will bring the popular show to the stage with a little help from their friends, and the funniest folks from our region will entertain all weekend on their own stage.

And that’s not even going into the many artists and authors appearing throughout the weekend! Bumbershoot’s home to visual arts exhibits, dance, theatre, literary arts and performance—and of course Flatstock 18 and the Indie Market, sponsored by ReadyMade!
