Reunite Garbage to close the Outdoor Saturday night 2012

[11yearsofdis]

Hey Goldenvoice make this happen!

[Mugwog]

Maybe if they only promise to play their first two albums. Beautiful Garbage was alright, but the album after that completely fell off.

If bands were ok with this, we could TOTALLY invite Weezer to another Coachella. Just nothing past Pinkerton.

[Jaketart]

I think if this happened, I would literally die because of how awsome it would be

[11yearsofdis]

Finally some people with good taste!.

THIS

[Premium Roast]

Have always wanted to see them live. 'Beautiful Garbage' is a great, and most likely overlooked due to there being no "hits", album (some pop songs, then getting very dark and deep the last part of the record). I'll add a vote.

I remember Shut Your Mouth, Breaking Up the Girl, Cherry Lips, and Androgyny being played all the time even though none were big hits. The real gems on the album were "Drive You Home" and "Cup of Coffee". I loved 2.0 but this album was on par with the self titled album as far as song structure and lyrical content. I got the chance to see them that touring cycle with No Doubt and it was amazing because they played half of the album in their allotted time.

Garbage, The Cranberries, Violent Femmes....lets do this 2012!

[Somewhat Damaged]

They were one of my first ever concerts. Would love to see them again, at Coachella no less, perhaps in a Jesus & Mary Chain slot on the main stage.

[Boourns]

Saw them open for Smashing Pumpkins in 1996 and they stole the show. Saw them do a proper gig in 2002 and it was a lot of fun. I would watch them if they played.

[weeklymix]

Love it. Need it.

[Twattycakes]

Would love to see Garbage at dusk on the main stage.

[shakermaker113]

mine too! they were my 2nd. (and I think 4th?)

I adore my memories of garbage circa 1998, but I don't know if what's coming will be nostalgic and happy or just ruin it all.

[shoegazer76]

Saw them on their innagural tour in Columbus Ohio at Newport music hall. I was 18 at the time. Met the entire band after the show and they all signed my shirt. Shirley complimented me on my marker she signed with and batted her lashes at me (swoon) no lie. My friend was making an ass outta himself asking Butch Vig about effects used on certain tracks on Nevermind. Astonishingly Butch was happy to entertain his conversation. What a surreal moment. They were really down to earth cool people.

[concertgoer]

Garbage, The Cranberries, Violent Femmes....lets do this 2012!

Hell yeah

[magmazing]

If Garbage were to be on the lineup, it wouldn't matter to me who else is performing, that one band would be worth the price of admission for me.

[Mugwog]

Definitely an awesome live band if you haven't seen them before, Shirley Manson is just a sweet person. A few years back on the "Beautiful Garbage" tour stop @ SDSU, Manson invited everyone to pack the pit: I remember her saying something like this: "We don't come out to SoCal that often, so everyone up there in the seats, come down! Let them through security, and everyone make room for everyone else!"

The looks on everyone's face was priceless! I went from seats to right up in the front, took some awesome pictures in black and white (disposable styles).

[kvnty]

I'd give my left testicle to hear Garbage close the outdoor stage.

[Fig Neutron]

I'm still sad The Sarah Connor Chronicles was cancelled.

[That70sdesperado]

Oh man I would kill to see Garbage play at Coachella. They always were fantastic live. Sometime at night on the outdoor would be ideal but damn they could probably play sunset on the main even.

[kvnty]

^ yawp ^ just need them there, and I don't care who else plays ... except for maybe Ministry.

[icedKeg]

LHl7o_kTx5o&feature=related
^this would go over pretty fucking well at coachella

[weeklymix]

Man I really hope Coachella gets them.

[Twattycakes]

Great energy. Is Butch Vig still touring with them?

[weeklymix]

Yep.

[weeklymix]

Garbage's cover of U2's "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses", included on Q magazine's compilation album of U2 covers AHK-toong BAY-bi Covered.

First song since reformation. Will be released tomorrow.

hFJnzab8sng

From Garbage:

"This track has nothing to do with our new record and will not be included. It is not a single. It is simply a song that happens to be a cover version that you will hear in a matter of weeks, if you care to."

[shakermaker113]

I don't like that cover.

[Rosemont17]

garbage would be great to see! make it happen!

[algunz]

I don't like that cover.

Doesn't seem that they do either. "If you care to."

[bucketofpower]

Yes!

[weeklymix]

Doesn't seem that they do either. "If you care to."

That's the impression I got, too.

[SlowMotionApocalypse]

Close the main stage? Yeah right, outside of a few internet music geeks, no one remembers or cares.

Garbage would be a good call

[Drewski27]

they played a kroq show in 05 and it was shit. no thanks.

[Twattycakes]

they played a kroq show in 05 and it was shit. no thanks.

They play a bad show 7 years ago and you hate them now? If you gave Bush a 2nd chance, I think Garbage deserves one too!

[daft$tar]

mmm i love garbage...

[Drewski27]

They play a bad show 7 years ago and you hate them now? If you gave Bush a 2nd chance, I think Garbage deserves one too!

first off, since when did i ever give Bush a 2nd chance? where did i ever get on the subject of Bush? and secondly, yes. Garbage sucked then and will probably suck now. but hey, thats my opinion.

[zircona1]

Garbage at Coachella plz. Saw them years ago when they toured for their second album and it was a really good show. Shirley has a lot of charisma.

Also, if you haven't seen it, the video for "Push It" is creepy, weird and indescribable:

The director for that video, Andrea Giacobbe, also directed the video for Death In Vegas' "Dirt." WAY more creepy and weird.

[I'dDoItAllAgain]

mmm i love garbage...
Yeah, your avatar kinda gives it away.

lol j/k

[nbvcide]

i'd take Shirley anyway i could get her, coachella or nochella

[Twattycakes]

Yeah, your avatar kinda gives it away.

lol j/k

OHHHHHHHHH BUUUUUUUUUUURN

[WhyTheLongFace]

I want this.

OHHHHHHHHH BUUUUUUUUUUURN

shut up twattycakes - your screen name makes me think of you as a power bottom who wants to take 10 black dicks at one time

[WhyTheLongFace]

Why do they have to black dicks?

[daft$tar]

Why do they have to black dicks?

black dudes have bigger cocks that white dudes

I like "All the lovers"... sue me.

[Twattycakes]

Why do they have to black dicks?

Because they are all attached to black men. Idiot. I like my men like I like my coffee, OK?!?!

[webfairy]

Garbage is AMAZING live!!!! I would say there is a really good chance garbage will be at coachella the new album is due out in March or April and Shirley has already mentioned she would love to play coachella. Butch Vig said in a interview ". We’ll probably start doing rehearsals in January of next year and then play a few small shows in March of April. Then maybe we’ll play some festivals both here and in Europe." I have my fingers crossed!

garbage is playing shows in Russia in May

[concertgoer]

Cool

[markinetic]

WHY

[dorkfish]

Seems plausible, now.

[xanman86]

Seems plausible, now.

Maybe on Friday, not Saturday though.

[baily]

Garbage will be there...they are playing the warm up show April 10th....and supported by GV.

[Edmontonian]

would make a great replacement for Cat Power or La Roux :-(

[Mugwog]

$35 and haven't seen Garbage since their Wiltern appearance on my 21st
Garbage birthday 2.0 wooooop wooop

[baily]

Garbage birthday 2.0 wooooop wooop

Their orange album (believe it was called 2.0) is one of my favorite albums from top to bottom. It's not often I like an album all the way through...that album worked.

[Mugwog]

Self titled and 2.0 were fantastic

[TheClaw]

I would love for this to happen, but am not holding my breath. Garbage is great live. I think their first two albums are their best and I hear that is the direction for this new one. I'm still going to desperately attempt to buy tickets on Saturday, but given the tiny size of the El Rey, I have a bad feeling about it.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

BUT SATURDAY WAS THE IMPORTANT DAY

[Gribbz]

Crystal Castles will be the replacement band.

[baily]

Bet a lot of $ on Garbage showing up to Coachella

they are headed out on tour in May
They are represented by Golden Voice
They have a 'warm up' show in LA on the 10th of April - 3 days prior to Coachella
GV needs more bands -due to drops

Too many similarities to ignore

[Wolfbeckett]

Self titled and 2.0 were fantastic

Beautiful Garbage was fantastic as well. It was not the same album as the first two but it was just as good as them in it's own way IMO.

Garbage was my first ever concert (in fact, it was the very one at SDSU mentioned by someone earlier in this thread) and if they end up getting added to the poster I will probably need to change my pants.

[baily]

deleted

[JorgeC]

Garbage was the first band I ever traveled outside of LA area for. Saw most every Vegas, San Fran and SD show on each tour. I can't wait for this El Rey show and subsequent tour, gonna have to catch at least a few shows around the country.

I thought all 4 albums were fantastic (yes, even Bleed Like Me, though I can tell they weren't as into it at the end...). Here's the way I'd stack them.

V2.0
BG
Garbage
BLM

[paulb]

I REALLY hope this happens!! Definitely way too close to Coachella, put on by Goldenvoice, to not have them there, + all the other festival dates their doing. This add would make me very ecstatic. Sure wish I was in LA earlier to catch the El Rey gig.

[concertgoer]

I think this is going to happen and I am really excited!

[shakermaker113]

I haven't seen garbage since 98. they were my second ever concert. having them at coachella is a great idea. I would've loved to see that. shame it didn't happen before I lost interest, but oh well.

hoping for an SF date round about that LA date...

[magmazing]

I'm so upset that they're playing in L.A. 2 days before I arrive on my way to Coachella. Don't have anymore vacation time to use. Was really hoping the L.A. date was going to be the Tuesday the 17th. Now just have to hope they get added to Coachella.

[SeantheJeweler]

This would be awesome.

[baily]

debating now whether to buy tickets to see the show in LA or wait and see if the Coachella set is announced.

[paulb]

Go to both. Frees up at conflicts any Coachella if there are any.

Just noticed the thread title says Outdoor Saturday night.... why so specific? Outdoor on Saturday would make perfect sense to me, vs Bon Iver on the main, before Radiohead starts.... Do it GV!

[TheClaw]

At least try for tickets, however, Garbage at the El Rey will sell out instantaneously. It's a tiny venue.

[microcuts]

I'm kind of half expecting this to be announced on Monday after the probable instantaneous sell out of the El Rey gig on Saturday. If both places are already sold out at that point, then there's no harm in tacking them onto the bill.

Or maybe I'm just dreaming still.

[amyzzz]

hope hope hope!

i wondered this too and i think it was also due to the fact that it was released a few weeks after 9/11 and the state was just in an odd state of mind. i've been catching them live since 95!!! they're great and i missed their wilter show for beautifulgarbage for the aforementioned reason.

i don't know... there are a lot of "that's a given," but i wouldn't bet money on it...

^---- this is exactly what i am afraid of. i'm gonna try my hardest to get pre-sale friday and if i don't, general on saturday, but it's gonna be tough!

[bucketofpower]

I really want them to appear, but radius clause?

[sonofhal]

Coachella is sold out - it's hardly going to have an adverse effect on sales now.

[Wolfbeckett]

I really want them to appear, but radius clause?

I'm pretty sure they have significantly slackened the radius clause this year. I live in San Diego and just got an email from a local venue the other day promoting a show for The Hives which is taking place between the two Coachella weekends. Only logical, if you want bands to commit to staying in the area for a week you have to let them play shows nearby, not every band is Radiohead and can just afford to take a week off. For most bands, you gotta play if you wanna make enough to not be homeless.

LIVING IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!!!!!!

[luckyface]

Fuck yes! Finally came through! It has been awhile since I scored tickets to a show that was going to sell out instantly.

[captncrzy]

a) radius clause is irrelevent when the event is sold out
b) San Diego usually is not part of the radius clause

[baily]

Radius is pie r squared

[captncrzy]

Bumblebee, where are you with your super math skillz??

[baily]

Radius from circumference

The radius of the circlest with perimeter (circumference) C is

r = \frac{C}{2\pi}= \frac{C}{\tau}.

[edit] Radius from area

The radius of a circle with area A is

r= \sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}.

[edit] Radius from three points

To compute the radius of a circle going through three points P1, P2, P3, the following formula can be used:

r=\frac{|P_1-P_3|}{2\sin\theta}

where θ is the angle \angle P_1 P_2 P_3.

This formula uses the Sine Rule.

Makes sense, why else would they play the el rey? It would seem they would be able to play a much bigger venue. It seems like a warm up gig for Coachella to me.

It could be the El Rey is just what serves their needs-small venue, close to home. But I wouldn't be surprised if they showed up at Coachella.

[Mugwog]

Goldenvoice probably asked them - Club Nokia, Nokia Theatre or the El Rey.

We would have seen them at the Music Box if that was still open :(

[orbit]

Saturday doesn't sound too likely, They are playing on Sunday 22nd in Dallas.

[ialvarado2]

They could be a good replacement for La Roux

[DropletsOfYes&No]

Saturday doesn't sound too likely, They are playing on Sunday 22nd in Dallas.

The Black Keys are playing that same festival (Edgefest) as the headliners billed above Garbage that night so it could happen

[weeklymix]

Please replace La Roux and Cat Power with Garbage.

Thanks.

[shotglass75]

[shakermaker113]

I dig. but such a short clip... I'm cautious.

[weeklymix]

BUMP. Friday. Saturday. Don't care. Normally I wouldn't care as much but La Roux and Cat Power are gone so... bring it on.

[weeklymix]

The Black Keys are playing that same festival (Edgefest) as the headliners billed above Garbage that night so it could happen

And this.

[LuckyMF]

Love to see them. This year's show could use some more rock 'n roll.

[captncrzy]

Playing Vegas on the 14th, (so no Saturday night add). Playing Tucson on the 16th, and playing on the 20th (so no Sunday add). Friday add?

[faxman75]

Brutal. If they don't play Coachella I won't be able to see the Vegas or Tucson show. C'mon Friday ADD!

[magmazing]

Now they're playing in Colorado on the April 24th and 25th.

This is seriously killing me. They're playing a ton of shows but not the top festival in the US? Come on!

[paulb]

Exactly! Killing me too!

[awesomeo]

They just booked an Austin show on the 21st. It would definitely have to be a Friday add.

[captncrzy]

Just booked a PHX show on the 17th.

[microcuts]

Definitely not happening now :(

April 9 Los Angeles
April 10 Los Angeles
April 14 Las Vegas
April 16 Tucson
April 17 Phoenix
April 20 Houston
April 21 Austin
April 22 Dallas
April 24 Aspen
April 25 Denver

[shakermaker113]

sf better fit in there somewhere.

[Boourns]

Mea is a much better add, anyway.

[captncrzy]

Wow, I called that wrong.

[GuyInTucson]

Definitely not happening now :(

April 9 Los Angeles
April 10 Los Angeles
April 14 Las Vegas
April 16 Tucson
April 17 Phoenix
April 20 Houston
April 21 Austin
April 22 Dallas
April 24 Aspen
April 25 Denver

I don't think they will be added but I don't think them playing in LA makes a lick of difference with all of the other Coachella acts who are playing in Southern California around the time of the festival. Especially when their shows on the 9th and 10th of April are Goldenvoice shows.

[captncrzy]

They can't be added unless they're only playing weekend 1.

[GuyInTucson]

They can't be added unless they're only playing weekend 1.

Texas will be two hours ahead by then. Garbage plays their show, hops on a plane to Palm Springs, arrives to the festival at 11 pm to close out the main stage after The Black Keys, effectively bumping Swedish House Mafia to the Sahara. Take a flight back to Texas in the morning. Boom!

(Just trying to keep your hopes up :) )

[Somewhat Damaged]

It's not because of LA, it's because they're in Texas the entirety of weekend 2.

EDIT: Dammit, you already responded.

[magmazing]

This news is depressing. :(

[Wolfbeckett]

FUCK and both of their LA shows are already sold out. I can only hope they will hit this area again at the end of their tour, the El Rey is clearly too small of a venue for them, they should have played the Greek Theater or something instead.

[concertgoer]

This news is depressing. :(

Indeed :(

[bucketofpower]

Phoenix tix onsale!

[fibes]

Just got tickets to their show in Austin. This way when i get back from coachalla i have this to keep me busy from obsessing with whats going on weekend2.

i feel GV kinda dropped the ball here, would have been a great Friday act and i believe they manage the band. o well..

[myfirstcoachella]

im still hoping for a secret set on wekend 1, was impossible to get tickets for the LA shows

[Slice]

just announced on 92.9 in Santa Barbara that Garbage will play their Summer Roundup at the Santa Barbara Bowl June 1
5063

[shakermaker113]

I'm convinced that the lack of SF date means they're going to be playing some shitty live 105 concert. fucking radio station.

[virexgaze]

gonna be a busy weekend 1 for me... Drive back on the 16th to Tucson See Garbage then Tuesday go see St. Vincent and Tune-Yards... Glad they added the Tucson date in time for me to catch them on the way back

[Disposition]

I'm convinced that the lack of SF date means they're going to be playing some shitty live 105 concert. fucking radio station.
