[woogie846]

Don't you think that some of those acts are too big for the Outdoor?

[humanoid]

No Air yet...they were brilliant in "04, and since they were there again in '07, I don't want to see them again at Coachella for another year or 2..positively speaking of course

[boarderwoozel3]

Don't you think that some of those acts are too big for the Outdoor?

Muse? Arcade Fire? Yeah, massively too big.

[humanoid]

I think when Arcade Fire comes back they're going to be headlining a night

[amyzzz]

Let that be Sunday with a bunch of other crap bands, and I'm all for it! I can skip a day.

[bluemamba]

I cant believe non of you A-holes are mentioning THE WHITE STRIPES!!!

What is wrong with you??

[rage patton]

I think God Speed You! Black Emperor playing the Gobi is the biggest joke here. If they were to reunite and play Coachella, there is no way the Gobi could contain that crowd.

[PassiveTheory]

Fuck the White Stripes and their awful garbage music.

Main Stage: REM (Headliner) A Tribe Called Quest performing the Low End Theory (Subheadliner), The Flaming Lips UFO Show (Headliner/Subheadliner), Gnarls Barkley (Subheadliner), The Strokes (Subheadliner)

Mojave Tent: Burial, Fleet Foxes, Lykke Li, The Mountain Goats, Deerhunter

Gobi Tent: I Am Robot and Proud, The Books, Nortec Collective, Grand Archives, Why?

[rage patton]

I think Lee definately has the most realistic list so far.

[MissingPerson]

Let that be Sunday with a bunch of other crap bands, and I'm all for it! I can skip a day.

Sigh. Amy... God, we'd be so perfect if it wasn't for your one terrible, crippling, insurmountable, irredeemable failing.

[PassiveTheory]

I think Lee definately has the most realistic list so far.

Well... I wasn't going for super (I swear I almost typed "supre", fucking Chris) realism. Otherwise I wouldn't have listed the dude who's never done a show before because he doesn't think he can (Burial).

[thewindowliquor]

Main Stage: Bowie, Daft Punk, Chemical Bros, Outkast, Flaming Lips

Outdoor: At the Drive In, Antipop Consortium, Cat Power, Boards of Canada, Dr. Octagon

Gobi: Emilie Simon, Vincent Gallo, the pAper chAse, Mice Parade, the Locust

[thewindowliquor]

Gobi-- The Melvins, Parlement Funkadelic, Mastodon, Goon Moon, One Day As A Lion

the Gobi would be fucking trashed.

[rage patton]

Bahahaha. I didn't see that. The Melvins would tear the Gobi down. Parliament Funkadelic would funk that tent right up. Mastadon and One Day As A Lion are just flat out too big for the Gobi. Goon Moon... isn't that a side project from one of the guys from Marilyn Manson's band or something?

Goon Moon... isn't that a side project from one of the guys from Marilyn Manson's band or something?

I've never heard of them, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I saw John 5 last fall and he was pretty damn good.

EDIT...and Tim Skold is always entertaining.

[rage patton]

I saw John 5 play with Rob Zombie last fall. He was awesome.

[frozen pilgrim]

I think God Speed You! Black Emperor playing the Gobi is the biggest joke here. If they were to reunite and play Coachella, there is no way the Gobi could contain that crowd.

how about parliament funkadelic playing the gobi with chromeo in the mojave

to me, that's insulting to the point of musical fucking sacrelige

[thewindowliquor]

P-Funk on the outdoor stage would be dope.

[zenidogx]

Fuck the White Stripes and their awful garbage music.

[thegateisdown]

good moon has members of Hella, I know....and hella would be fucking sweeeeet...better than goon moon, in my book.

[Memorial_07]

Fuck the White Stripes and their awful garbage music.

Main Stage: REM (Headliner) A Tribe Called Quest performing the Low End Theory (Subheadliner), The Flaming Lips UFO Show (Headliner/Subheadliner), Gnarls Barkley (Subheadliner), The Strokes (Subheadliner)

Outdoor Theatre: Nick Cave and the Black Seeds, The Magnetic Fields, Okkervil River, Feist, Thievery Corporation (Subheadliner)

Gobi Tent: I Am Robot and Proud, The Books, Nortec Collective, Grand Archives, Why?

Your list seems most realistic compared to everyone else's

[thegateisdown]

goon* moon rather... as for others, ATDI will probably never...ever ever ever ever ever get back together...its too bad though, they're one of my favorites....Alec empire, Crystal Castles, Band of horses, Dr. octagon, Nick Cave, Andrew W.K., Sigur Ros, Portugal the man, all sound great!
What about Hella, Crystal Skulls?
Maybe Sage Francis? Uncle Luke! and 2 live cru!

oh, and by the way, I have to agree with the sentiment "fuck the white stripes"...sorry to break the positivity, but what an overrated band...Jack White is a good musician, and a great writer....but I was over it with the legos.

[thegateisdown]

otherwise a fun thread, it seems.

[zenidogx]

Mojave: Noah & the Whale, Black Mountain, Dungen, Daniel Johnston
Gobi: 9th Wonder, Taj Mahal, Femi Kuti, Amadou & Miriam
Outdoor: Cat Power, TV on the Radio (sunset), Yo La Tengo, Girl Talk
Main: Primus, the Decemberists, Feist, Broken Social Scene
Sahara: Moby, Chemical Brothers, Kylie Minogue, Hercules & Love Affair

[frozen pilgrim]

kay. let's do this shit. I'm trying to be realistic, pay respect to who whouls be on what stage (I may not get the correct order on each specific stage in respect to who should be more important, but I think which stage they're on is the much more important factor. timeslots where applicable)

main stage:
bowie (headliner) MBV (sunset) blur (head/sub-headliner [open debate]), queens of the stone age (sub-headliner), chemical brothers

outdoor:
air, the hard sell (shadow and chemist), les claypool in some incarnation, bad religion, MF doom with either danger mouse or madlib

sahara:
shpongle/hallucinogen, an infected mushroom set to make up for 07's conflict, boxcutter, venetian snares, shitmat

mojave:
george clinton and parliament funkadelic (ideally three hours from tenPM to oneAM. two hours MINIMUM), holy fuck, patton oswalt (standup), roots manuva, battles

gobi:
mr. plow, zappa plays zappa, victor wooten, me first & the gimme gimmies, linton kwesi johnson & the good time reggae band
