I assume you are referring to Bloc Party and Franz Ferdinand?

Jack White, At The Drive-in, Sigur Ros, Tune-Yards, Band of Skulls, Bear in Heaven, First Aid Kit, Thenewno2, and maybe Bloc Party and Twin Shadow are all that stand out to me. As awesome as it would be to see all those bands I'm not sure its really worth it since more than half the list would grate on my nerves, but me and some friends are still talking about going since we're so close(I live like a 3 hour drive from there).

If all of the Pitchfork acts played in one day I'd agree, but it's too spread out. Pitchfork lacks the depth or punch to the top of their bill--it's a bunch of bands I'd love to go see for $10...

Lollapalooza

I'll stick with the 6 low quality mp3s I scored years ago from the Chili Peppers playing Lollapaloza '92. Back when both were actually relevant.

With Erik Marshall on guitar?

Jack white is a plus, sabbath would be a plus but half the band won't be there. The black keys would be a plus but unfortunately they'll play almost strictly new stuff.

If you've heard one old Black Keys song you've heard them all.

You're kinda right but I still like them. They have their style and they don't stray far from it.

I do believe, his playing is very subtle as compared to Frusciante if older bootlegs I've got are any indication. It's not their best but I'd rather hear old school Peppers with warts and all than the shiny modern version.

Either way the set was (not in order)

Blood Sugar Sex Magik
If You Have to Ask
Magic Johnson
Mommy, Where's Daddy
My Lovely Man
