I'd take JT over the generic/shitty "modern rock" act any day of the week.
What the fuck are you even saying here? What is wrong with you?
Well, also some of it is also quite enjoyable. Good music is not solely the province of bands nobody has ever heard of.
Besides, Coachella has booked plenty of pop/mainstream acts before, just...
Fuck, I'd settle for them selling us liters.
Archie Bunker is operating under the belief that Radiohead and a Tupac hologram killed demand for 2014.
From the FAQ:
The way its worded sure sounds like they put all the passes on sale for the presale.
Oh, and if 2012 was crappy, wouldn't sales have been down this year?
In conclusion,...
Did it say this last year, too?
The way it's worded ("anything we have left") seems to indicate that they made all of the passes potentially available for the presale. I could be mistaken,...
Got through using Chrome on my iPhone in about 75 seconds.
I've seen people mention this before, and I think that when you really think about it, Mumford/NIN/Depeche Mode makes no sense. Both Mumford and NIN have headlined or will headline a bunch of...
Has a band ever headlined, then come back "demoted" to second (or third) line? Because after the pile of tepid shit that was the last two Strokes albums, I can't imagine them on the top line. To...
Correct. Like I said, I have it. It's nearly 4 GB - no offense, but that seems like it would be a fucking pain in the ass to upload somewhere. I suppose I could torrent it somehow.
You fucking piece of shit.
Oh for fuck's sake.
I'd add Converge and High on Fire to that list.
That would be tremendous, if only because I would think that new album = full tour, which means I could check them out in a smaller venue with a full-length show. Coachella was outstanding, but felt...
You really are the worst. You have shit taste.
I have the Hot Chip webcast - a buddy of mine ripped it and torrented it for me so I could snag it from him. It's a massive file, though - like a 4 GB mpeg. If there's a way to cut it down to...
It's on your list - 11th from the bottom. I'm assuming it was put there on accident. So disappoint.
And post #5 is just one song from Alt-J. No worries, just wondering if these were out there...
At first, I was going to tell you how awful of a human being you were for this:
...but then I saw this:
...and it all makes sense. I know this gets thrown around a lot around here, but...
Forgive my ignorance but I can't seem to find Local Natives or Alt-J. Little help?
Can anyone suggest a good program to convert .ts (and other formats) for use on DVD? Preferably free - I'm using ConvertX (5), and while it works pretty well, it leaves this massive watermark that...
Would do pretty much anything for a nice copy of the Wk1 set. Jesus, just tremendous.
I thought car camping was great. I don't know where these horror stories about the portopotties are coming from - I never had an issue finding one that was at the very least acceptable if not damn...
I've got the Hot Chip full webcast, but the file is massive - almost 4 GB. Once I figure a way to cut it down some, I'll make it available in some way shape or form.
Actually, security wouldn't let us bring in more than one empty per person. If you wanted to do the 10/1 exchange inside the festival, you had to collect bottles from inside the venue.
The not...
White people don't enjoy festivals, don't you read this forum? We just go and stand around and then bitch about sand storms and lines and other white people.
Beck, headlining Sunday night? Yes please.
stcee: Loves Moby, and paying women for sex.
This was my first Coachella, but I've been to dozens of other festivals large and small. Coachella was easily the most well-run and well-organized experience I've ever had, infrastructure wise.
...
Yeah, except for the insane sand/dust towards the end of Sunday, this weather was perfect. Warm during the day, but not punishing with the breezes and shade, plenty cool at night. Extremely...
Hot Chip
Sigur Ros
Blur
Postal Service
James Blake
After that it could be any number of Nick Cave, Vampire Weekend, Local Natives, Jamie xx, Four Tet, Tanlines.
I feel like nearly everything I saw was aces, so I guess I made some good decisions. I think the Gobi was just too quiet in general - TNGHT would have been fantastic if they just blew out the sound,...
My only major complaints are (1) the clusterfuckery of Blur/J5/Foals - why the hell not swap Tegan & Sara and J5? (2) Hot Chip/Yeasayer/Grizzly Bear and Postal Service/SMD. Maybe I'm crazy, but I...
This boyfriend/girlfriend routine is the weirdest trolling I've ever seen.
Of course he fucking will, you simp.
...and here's Tucker, spamming Buzzfeed articles with his tips on festivals and his totes awesome coupons for JammyPacks!
...
For what it's worth, he didn't play Harlem Shake at SXSW.
AND DO THE HARLEM SHAKE.
bamp-bamp-bamp-bamp-babampbampbampbamp-bamp-bamp-bamp
AND DO THE HARLEM SHAKE
God Yes.
Metalchella 2014.
Why don't you understand that logic? Many festivals have weak headliners. That would indicate that there are a lot of weak headliners out there. It's not as if everyone is booking these super...
I am well aware of the futility of this endeavor.
Eh, they work really well for a daytime show, actually. They won't have a stage setup that's really dependant on lights and visuals. They're a highly billed act, but hip-hop in general I think...
What fucking evidence do you have that McCartney was even an option? Superfly is well-known for booking their headliners way early. I'd be stunned if they hadn't locked McCartney up fairly early...
Holy shit are you fucking brain damaged?
Forgive my ignorance, but only 20,000 or so camp each year, correct?
I was going to say, you could keep it in the original bottles if you don't mind keistering it in there.
Damn you, Robin.
Oh for the love of Christ.
Dump your clear liquor into some empty water bottles then mix them in with the ice in your cooler. Put your dark liquor in plastic bottles approximating the color of...
I feel like people who scan the other festivals' lineups are somehow missing the fact that acts like Mumford & Sons and Tom Petty are fucking headlining elsewhere. As someone else stated, the only...
