I say excellent draw all around and I agree with the above post. I would love to end either my Friday or Sunday to thievery vibes. I've been wanting to see them at snwmf for a long time. I've even chosen Sierra over seeing them several time at the Greek. That's when the idea occurred that they would be perfect and different for snwmf. I really hope that they do NOT cancel.

The thing I love most about SNWMF is how they bring great artists that I love and hardly ever get to hear. The other thing that I love is how many great artists that they bring whom I have never heard of or never noticed up until their SNWMF appearance. The clip Zach posted and other things I am hearing on the web make me think that this is a group that I am going to happy to see live. Not 100% reggae, but when they do roots they do it right. Their pop tunes actually sound pretty nice as well.

I take it you're not happy with this?? If that's the case...chill man. Would you like Rebelution or SOJA to headline again? Thievery Corporation is tight and they know the true roots of reggae...and I guarantee they'll focus on their riddim tracks at this show. Who knows? maybe someone will be billed above them...doesn't matter. They are an excellent talent and the little ladies love em big time...

Think about hearing this from 30' speaker towers (and, yes...it's beautiful "lie" not "life" winking smiley

Bless

I've been wondering how many and how massive will the band be? I hope for many so hard, percussionist and sitar players. I am guessing that they will have a Friday night headlining spot and that would be perfect to me. I get worn out that first day from driving and setting camp. I look forward to relaxing to the vibes from my camp and/or the main stage.

No, I cant believe that is even being considered. Have you seen TC? I saw them at a club a few years ago in SF and was bummed I spent $20, I couldn't really dance to their set. The Melodians and Mighty Diamonds deserve that spot way before TC IMO. Sorry no disrespect.

Listened to it. Really nice Brazilian stylee. The singer has a beautiful smokey torch singer's voice.

I've heard them described as a "collective" rather than a band. I'm really interested to see how they do a live show.

I could see them putting on an incredible show or just being a total dud. Just because of the way their organization is structured.

Do a YouTube search for their show at Redrocks. Doesn't look like a dud to me at all.

Looks like the peeps from down under were having a good time too:

From the beginning a part of TC is See-I who played last summer at ROTR...........Played a great set.........
I have seen TC and See-I usually does a reggae set.......... I love TC's sultry lounge singers but not sure that works for SNWMF............. can't wait to see who they bring with them!

Daniel do you know who they are bringing with them and/or what kind of set they will be performing?

I have no idea who they will be bringing with them, or what kind of set they will play. What I do know is that, although TC is, at it's core, just Rob Garza and Eric Hilton, they'll have rooms for more than 15 people. So, you can expect a high energy performance with LOTS of singers participating in what is described by them as a 'DJ Collective.'

Ras Pidow, Notch, Shinehead and Sleepy Wonder are among the artists that have previously been a part of the collective. When they performed in Costa Rica a few weeks ago, Puma Ptah (formally Ras Puma) was one of the singers. Here's a short video of him singing with Thievery Corporation at Jungle Jam last month:

I saw on Facebook that they are performing Sunday night and I was hoping for them to close Friday or Sunday. Thanks Daniel and I look forward to more updates here or Facebook from you. When do you think the next round of announcements will be?
