lol i'm dumb (Amanda Palmer / Conor Oberst)

[rkawar]

I didnt realize who they were. Conor Oberst is from Bright Eyes if you guys didnt know. Amanda Palmer is from Dresden Dolls.

is there anybody else doing solo stuff that was in an equally awesome band that I should know about? I feel stupid for not knowing more

[woogie846]

Henry Rollins, but he kicks both of their asses.

[andronicus]

is henry doing rollins band music? or spoken word?

oh cloud9

[woogie846]

Well, he's billed as just Henry Rollins, but the youtube video for Henry Rollins in the line up section on coachella.com is music.

I think you just gave my eyes cancer.

[Stickjohn]

It was worth it to be informed Paul McCartney was a Beatle

[menikmati]

Henry Rollins could kill all of us if he wanted to.

[Trick Loves The Kids]

this rules

[andronicus]

take every chuck norris joke and replace chuck with henry rollins.

suprisingly, the joke's are no more funny than they already aren't.

[dorkfish]

Bob Mould = Husker Du
Paul Weller = The Jam
Paul McCartney = The Beatles
Amanda Palmer = The Dresden Dolls
Conor Oberst = Bright Eyes
M. Ward = She & Him (awkward to phrase it that way)
Jenny Lewis = Rilo Kiley
Perry Farrell = Janes Addiction, etc
Henry Rollins = Black Flag, Rollins Band, etc
Thenewno2 = George Harrison's son

[woogie846]

I think Henry Rollins' set at Coachella should just consist of him fighting large, exotic animals.

you are awesome
thank you for this. this helps a lot.

[PC-2 Violence]

Thenewno2

The video that they have as a link on Coachella is awesome.

[dorkfish]

I think Henry Rollins' set at Coachella should just consist of him fighting large, exotic animals.

I hope his set involves music in some fashion, but I'm completely expecting it to just be spoken word.

[andronicus]

lol.

yeah that didn't quite come out how i wanted it to.

[Stickjohn]

Bob Mould = Husker Du
Paul Weller = The Jam
Paul McCartney = The Beatles
Amanda Palmer = The Dresden Dolls
Conor Oberst = Bright Eyes

The "She" in "She and Him" is Zooey Deschanel, now engaged to Ben Gibbard. She's better known as an actress than a musician.

Could add Hercules and Love Affair to the list - Andy Butler (DJ) with Antony Hegarty (Antony and the Johnsons - performing Sunday) and a few others.

[dorkfish]

Zooey Deschanel isn't on the lineup.

Antony's position in Hecules and Love Affair is debatable as he's never been part of the touring live group. It's probable that he'll show up at Coachella, though, so it's probably going to be a nice, special performance.

[Stickjohn]

Ah - got it. Thanks. Remember Antony is on the lineup Sunday (with the Johnsons) so he'll be showing up at Coachella Whether it's just Sunday or he joins Hercules and Love Affair too on Saturday - haven't a clue, but "Blind" is Hercules' big hit and features Antony's vocals so it seems likely.

[brando4n82]

I'm pretty sure Henry Rollins will be doing his "stand up" routine that hes been touring, which would be great

[raytrade]

Bob Mould = Husker Du
Paul Weller = The Jam
Paul McCartney = The Beatles
Amanda Palmer = The Dresden Dolls
Conor Oberst = Bright Eyes
M. Ward = She & Him (awkward to phrase it that way)
Jenny Lewis = Rilo Kiley
Perry Farrell = Janes Addiction, etc
Henry Rollins = Black Flag, Rollins Band, etc
Thenewno2 = George Harrison's son

How the hell did you leave off:
Morrissey = The Smiths

Also if you count artists in new bands that were in old well-known bands:
Michael Franti = Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy
Travis Barker (TRAV$DJ-AM) = Blink-182
Booker T (& the DBTs) = Booker T & the MGs

And for your list above, Paul Weller should really also have Style Council listed as it was at least as popular as The Jam, and Paul McCartney should probably also list Wings as a band he was in.

[Rockstarboy37]

Bob Mould = Husker Du
Thenewno2 = George Harrison's son

Had no clue.

Got a little Beatles thing going. I wonder if paul is going to mention anything about it.

[Astrid]

i still cant tell if cloud9 is for real...

i hope conor oberst is as trashed during his solo set as he was during every bright eyes performance.

[SFChrissy]

Damn you guys are GOOD...

[tHEdARKsIDE]

also, The Night Marchers (Rocket from the Crypt)...
& Booker T & the DBT's (Booker T & The MG's)

and, if you're going to add Wings to McCartney, you should add Porno for Pyros to Perry Farrell and Sugar to Bob Mould...

and i guess you could say Surkin, Para One (Institubes Paris Terror Club), and Zane Lowe (BBC Radio One)



...and yes, Morrissey from The Smiths.

[el chango]

i hope conor oberst is as trashed during his solo set as he was during every bright eyes performance.

Didn't he stopped drinking when recording Cassadaga? I think that was the whole point of the "spiritual journey and rehab"

[sin213]

mike patton = faith no more, mr bungle, peeping tom, tomahawk, fantomas, lovage, crudo, general patton vs. the x-ecutioners...just to name a few.

rahzel = the roots
