I've been planning on doing some travelling in August, and considering "Plan A" seems to be dead now, I'll definitely be looking into going to festivals like this. I know that Defago's in Europe (France?) from August onwards, so it'd be cool if this happens.
Saturday at Pitchfork in Chicago. Friday's lineup is not very good (Beck is headlining) and I would've liked to go Sunday as well, but I can't really afford it. Unfortunately there isn't really a band I'm dying to see except maybe St. Vincent.
The festival itself has just such a great atmosphere and everyone's so friendly I can't not go, even if just for one day. Also Twin Peaks will be fun.
Friday:
Belle & Sebastian
Los Campesinos!
Black Lips
Fuck Buttons
James Holden
Deafheaven
Wolf Eyes
Gary Wilson
Amen Dunes
Perfect Pussy
Cerebral Ballzy
Saturday:

Also if anyone here's planning on going to Rock en Seine then let us know so we can all cuddle in a tent.
Also, there are some festivals in Croatia which are pretty interesting:

BTW, if anyone's interested or is planning on going to any of the Croatian festivals in late August and September (Dimensions, Outlook, Unknown), let me know. I'm still deciding over that, if I pass my remaining exams in the summer, I might just go to one of them. Need ppl to join me though...
