So every year bands hit the festival circuit, but with more North American festivals popping up every year, it seems like some bands are really making the rounds this year. I perused the lineups of the 8 major North American festivals in 2008 (Langerado, Coachella, Sasquatch, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, All Points West, Outside Lands and Pemberton) and found the following bands playing 4 or more of the festivals (my number may be off):
Chromeo - 5 (Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, All Points West, Pemberton)
Rogue Wave - 5 (Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, All Points West, Sasquatch)
Jack Johnson - 4 (Coachella, Bonnaroo, APW, Outside Lands)
Death Cab for Cutie - 4 (Coachella, Bonnaroo, Sasquatch, Pemberton)
Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings - 4 (Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands)
Battles - 4 (Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Sasquatch)
The National - 4 (Coachella, Bonnaroo, Sasquatch, Langerado)
Mates of State - 4 (All Points West, Sasquatch, Lollapalooza, Pemberton)
Anyway, no real point here, just thought it was interesting, and Jack Johnson is also playing the Virgin Festival in Baltimore, but I didn't want to count it yet since the full lineup hasn't been revealed yet.
