They're better when you sing louder than he does.

Wow. Thanks for all the comments. I was wondering about a list like this a couple of weeks ago and between the article and all of these opinions, it's a great buncha stuff to chew on. So glad I...

Pomona was amazing, by the way. Crowd way into it all over the place dancefest. Two encores looks to be the longest of the tour. Report & setlist.......

As far as bigger headliners go, I'd say this list is pretty well done, like it or not. Any other...

Wait a second, Warren G has a website?! I couldn't tell from the Warren G.com shirt he wore onstage. Can't believe Dre & Snoop let him wear that crap.

My grandpa made me do it. Geezer fo' life!
Feel free to share it before that Takei guy does. Star Trek had all the best hologram technology. You can say you were there first.......

For my terrible board etiquette (is there a more proper place to speculate if bands playing the fest will add other area dates?), I forgot I have to be back down in SD on 4/14. Fingers crossed for...

Was all excited to stay a week after Mangum in Oakland to go to the 4/17 show until I just saw a note about something on 4/14 I forgot to put on my calendar. Now I have to pray for an LA show along...

Um, newbie typo?
Sorry. Just stupidly excited. Curious if they'll add LA shows with the fest being soldout. Why wouldn't Goldenvoice want to make some extra cash on it....

It is ON.

90 minutes from Club Nokia presale & still no password. Anyone? Goldenvoice?

Saw this too! Amazing. As much as I love the awesome feeling of seeing a band in front of a festival crowd, the band has long said they don't like playing festivals. The biggest shock is that...

We're trying to!

Seriously can't wait for this. I posted on the band's messageboard a couple of months ago to see if anyone had heard any rumours but they've been pretty quiet about their plans for this year. ...

Amen. Possibly my fave band ever but would give anything to see them do their own show than have it be a part of something this big. Things like this was never their thing but if that's what it...

Thank gawd.

When you wish upon a ska....

Sorry for the self-serving thang but I'm a lil' excited to see how ridiculous the flyer looks after getting the idea 5 years ago.....

Like many bands, the folks who run the main fansite keep folks more abreast of what's going on than the band's official site and get it...

then again.....
from the main Specials site.....
THIS IS OFFICIALLY NOT HAPPENING. SPECIALS MANAGEMENT CONFIRMED THIS MORNING.

THE OFFICIAL QUOTE IS -

" ITS NO ON BOTH COUNTS! ITS NOT LIKE...

Seems odd that someone in Madness' camp would volunteer that but, hell, I'll take it!

Wow, really!? Loved 'em. Saw 'em. Don't need to see 'em live again. Seemed to be a night-time, smoke machine friendly band....

Their site admin had this to say....

"2009 was a very busy year for the lads, they did alot of gigs and alot of travelling as you know. But keep watching this space ;-)"

If they were dead set...

You're Wondering Now looked awesome. She looked a bit lost on Ghost Town.

It's kinda hard to tell with Terry, who's bread & butter is looking bored but the videos of them playing V Festival & Japan's Summer Sonic look like a blast....
<object width="425"...

from a recent Mojo interview.....

How are you finding the tour treadmill, '09-style? I'm sure I recall you slagging off festivals not long ago...
Terry Hall: Festivals are still horrible. But...

I read on another post that they're in negotiations. Really!?
Sounds like last year was close....

Band member Tommy Stinson tells Billboard.com, "We actually talked about it again this year, and...

Crossing fingers. Until then, we just confirmed today that we'll be opening up for "The English Beat" (Dave & friends) in February. Guess I'll be even more excited by then to be seeing them! ...

I'm kinda surprised I haven't seen this mentioned since last year. They reformed this year, are playing festivals and have apparently been fantastic. As much as I love Blur & Pulp, the Specials...

That's the first I've heard anyone say that about him....EVER. I just can't imagine three great musicians chomping at the bit to go out and hope he sounds good, which he never did when they were ...

Watch ANY clip of them playing live and tell me you'd like to hear him sing. I've said it before and I'll say it again. They should reunite without Ian and let the crowd sing. Check out how awful...

Nice one of the very end

Obviously I was kidding but there were folks that posted that they heard the solo from RATM's Freedom right after the Lemonheads' set ended. Folks were that desparate to hear a note or two. Crazy!

Thanks for posting!!

Someone post a pic of the whale. Thar she blows....whar she blows?!

Nice quote! Saw that on the webcast.....

Somethin' filled up
my heart with nothin',
someone told me not to cry.

But now that I'm older,
my heart's colder,
and I can see that it's a lie.

Children wake up,
hold your mistake up,

If he did an all-alt/indie set? Section Quartet was great. Someone should get these guys:
Cover Me Badd's Blasphemous Guitars
live ridiculous mashups of Coachella bands (Cure, Rage, DMode,...

Well?

They're gonna be next to impossible to find from out front but this one of Guerrila Radio is pretty damn good from the side. Good audio and everything!

Ha! I just commented on the Lemonheads thread how Evan was BARELY stopping in between songs and how RATM friends were probably listening to catch a little bit. He said "Hey, is that Rage Against...

They covered Arcade Fire's Wake Up!? Awesome!!! Oh no, wait it's just a stupid Oingo Boingo cover. Drat!

Bobby: Hello?
Zach: Hey Bobby, it's Zach.
Bobby: Hey, what's up, man? I heard you guys are playing Coachella for free! (both laugh)
Zach: Hey man, we're finally rockin' Don't Worry Be Happy like...

Whoa, calm like a bomb right into a SLAMMIN' Don't Worry Be Happy. Bobby McFerrin's up there with 'em and he's rockin' Zach's old dreds!!!!!

"Is that Rage Against THe Miami Sound Machine?"

Nice!

Yeah, i'm sure a lotta folks are dead tired by now. Can't imagine anyone could fall in love with them if they didn't already know the songs. Love the tunes but they've always been a bore live,...

damn typos. Sorry........sucka!
