The 2011 schedule for Noise Pop has been announced, and includes a lineup that buzzband fanboys nutted so hard over that 'Early Bird Badges' have already sold out.
SF Weekly in particular has been drooling over Pitchfork's latest flavor of the week, How To Dress Well. I'm not crazy about the record but if they're anything like the video above than they sound like Elliott Smith covering R Kelly live CORRECTION: they actually are covering R Kelly's 'I Wish'. How To Dress Well FTW!
Also prominently featured are Best Coast and Wavves, 2k10's Beniffer of the blogosphere (I mean does anyone still care about Ben & Zooey after they 'went mainstream' via Major League Baseball ?) and are in my less-than-humble opinion about as over hyped and untalented as musicians as Affleck and JLo were as actors.
Schedule and tickets found here.

I have to admit I didn’t read the post, but I love the poster.
Best Coast sucks.

Trying not to have fun to be cool but be a tough gig.
