More Acts Added to 'Fork Fest '09

2009_05_pfork_09.jpg The Pitchfork Music Festival has added some new action. The lineup for Saturday, July 18 now includes the cerebral indie folk of Beirut, the nice guy Norwegian future-disco of Lindstrøm, DOOM's masked insanity, and hyperactive Baltimore indie rockers Ponytail. The Sunday show, meanwhile, gets Frightened Rabbit (who remind us of a Glaswegian version of the National, which is awesome), The Mae Shi from LA, DJ/Rupture (whose blog is the best), and Chicago veterans Dianogah.
