I can't believe GV's decision to have Mccartney and the presets conflict when its obvious that Girl Talk would of been the more logical substitute as they attract an entire different crowd than Paul (the presets and Macca create a WAYYYYYYYYY bigger conflict than girl talk and Paul). As well The transition from ghostland to the presets would of been epic. LETS MAKE SOME NOISE AND TRY TO GET GV TO APPEASE TO OUR DEMANDS!!!!!!!!!

Agreed x1283579384750. And with all the hype about the presets you would think this conflict would have been avoided in the first place...

There's a conflict, quit bitching and decide who you'd rather see, because nobody, especially Goldenvoice, gives a fuck.

If you guys really think that Paul McCartney vs The Presets is a "bad conflict", then I really don't know what to say.

Signed, just cause I don't give a crap about Girl Talk. I'm pretty okay with skipping out on the first half of Paul. PRESETS!!!

Girl Talk? C'mon GV, the Presets are clearly much more valuable/exclusive.

This is the worst conflict of the festival for me. I was really looking forward to the Presets, but there's no way I'm missing Paul.

Yeah this is so terrible GV! Why, Why would you do that? And also have another petition "NO CONFLICT BETWEEN FUCKED UP AND OKKERVIL RIVER"! Please cause I mean I want to see both and they're so similar :(

So I went to see the Presets last night here in Seattle and they were TONS of fun live. The crowd basically lost its sh!t every song. Wish all shows were like that. Hadn't sweat that much in a while.

The Presets are good live. But who cares? Just see them both! McCartney will be on for two hours. I kinda like the way its scheduled now because I haven't seen Girl Talk yet.

Its my major conflict. but gv is supposed to keep bands that sound similiar and same fan base from conflicting. Girl talk wouldnt be that big of a big attraction during paul. there are supposed to be many options for everyone.

Everyone bashing on me for my opinions but it looks like I'm not the only one.
Its the "me" generation vs the "fvck you" generation.

its definitely impossible to put on a conflict free line up but this for me is the shittiest of the entire weekend. this is the presets second to last date in the US and there's really no guarantee they'll be back here for awhile. add to that the fact that they have to compete with a music icon like paul mccartney and you've really fucked over the crowd and the artist.
there should definitely be more considerations made as to where the artists are from and the frequency of their performing in the US. sorry but you should respect the fact that they're here from australia and offer them a slot that isn't gonna deprive them or their fans of a good show. then again if you live in socal, just catch them at the glass house on the 20th and stop bitching? myself included haha

lol, girltalk will by far have the biggest crowd of douchebag/chochballs/meatmarkethustlers of any act over the whole weekened. I mean seriously, you must be a real douchebag. Don't forget to pop that collar for the ladies.

I've seen girl talk and I haven't met a single meatmarkethustler there ever.
imagine thousands of similar people all thinking each other are douchebags... .gee I am SO bummed I'm not going now.

First of all, take this "biggest band ever" nonsense to the record store with your Model-T.
Either way, the fact that he WAS a member of some band means shit. Ooooooh he might play Beatles songs...
The point is, the Presets are going to be around for at least a couple of years and will likely tour again. McCartney is going to die in like 3 weeks.
WHY IS THIS A DIFFICULT DECISION FOR YOU PEOPLE
