 Help Sweden get The Pillows!
Now here's what i want you to do... at the biggest swedish festival's(hultsfredfestivalen) homesite you can now vote for which bands you wanna see at the Hultsfred Festival from a huge list and if it gets enough votes they'll try to book them. And as it is one of those bands you can vote on are The Pillows! So please go there and vote for The Pillows, ok? (and if you wanna do me a favor vote for jens lekman as well)

Now i guess for the most of you this doesn't matter and not for me either since i don't even listen to the pillows anymore and iwont be able to see the s how, but let's help The Pillows join international fame!

Sorry to be bubble bursting, but the pillows getting enough votes doesn't really "force" them to play in Sweden. They have to be willing to play.
And at that, your chances are close to zero.

Of course i understand that, all i'm saying is if they get enough votes they'll atleast try to book them, which probably won't result in anything... but, i mean it's not completely impossible so why not vote? atleast then they will know they're wanted here.

i don't believe much in these voting on festivals, in the end they end up getting the bands that they want and can and are not totaly rejected, and it is in june, I believe that by that time they'll still be probably touring on japan, they'd just go if there was a eurotour or something. Maybe they'll do another us tour before going more worldwide.

They currently only have 7 votes. Shockingly, Dir en Grey is in second place for most votes  .

Why wouldn't the pillows want to go? They've certainly shown an interest in expanding their fanbase in the past...

The Pillows seemed pretty popular in England for a while during Little Busters.

It's not as bad as when the fuckers from here tried to get them on Conan O'Brien. Worst Idea ever.
