Official Confirmed Artists for 2010

[Egull]

Muse is a lock.

i think U2 can now have a 10 percent possibility... just cause a one-off for a few million will help their total since they will not profit as much as previous tours cuz of the huge production.

daft punk, bowie Metallica will not happen.

i think the subheadliners could be the best we have seen in a while with potential of Pavement, Faith No more, Soundgarden(they are in talks), Husker Du (in talks), the Replacements(in talks)...i think thats where its at for 2010.

the headliners will be the same story as previous years...

I hope this is completely wrong.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

I hope this is completely wrong.

partly is. is partly right tho.

[BlackSwan]

Soundgarden is such a terrible idea.

Muse and Pavement make sense.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

I don't see Husker Du reuniting tho...Bob is completely against it..

Wait, which is it, are we getting the best subheadliners or what you just listed? We need Pulp, Thom Yorke, and either Gorillaz or Blur up in there

[Boourns]

And isn't one of the Replacements dead?

[Aurgasm]

underworld 0% chance

0% ????

lets see: they are coach alumns, they have a massive fan base, they have a lot of new material, there are about 15,000 people in LA who bought tickets to see them and didnt get to and if GV didn't at least see them as a draw, well then fuck GV. and when I asked them LV about what they planned to do next year they told me they'd be back touring with new material.

The only way Underworld will not be at coach is if someone has health problems.


marinade in that.

[BlackSwan]

Damon would have to make a lot of progress on the new album for Gorillaz to even be a remote possibility.

[rage patton]

Forza, do you realize who vinylmartyr is? He knows what he is talking about.

[PassiveTheory]

One page later, and I still don't understand what separates this thread from all the other dozen of baseless speculation threads. There's not a shred of evidence that suggests any band has been confirmed, so why the fuck does this thread get bumped?

At least they plan on touring again next year. I'm going to Europe next summer so even if they don't come to the states it still seems like there will be a chance to see them.

Their shows will eventually become profitable. Also, keep in mind that they signed a pre-paid contract with LiveNation for something like $120M, so I don't think that they'd do a one-off show to make more money. They're already paid for the tour, and any type of profit that they receive is from various bonuses.

Are you saying one off shows are completely off limits? Or that if they do one off shows it won't be for the $$$?

Nothing's off limits. A different company owning their touring contract is a large barrier, but you can buy anything that you really want if they're willing to sell. Not sure if Paul T would deem it profitable to spend (just a guess) $5M for a one-off U2 show. As far as the U2 contract goes, they get their $120M, as long as they meet their touring obligations. Livenation's not stupid. They wouldn't have allowed all the claws to be built unless they saw a large profit in the future.

Scoop, please go start your own fucking speculations thread.

You don't know shit, and I base that on the ABORTION of a thread you had last year.

Well, if I remember correctly U2 were asked last year and it was going to be a stripped down set without the Claw. 5 million doesn't seem like that big of a deal especially since U2 is a gtd sell out. Did anyone figure out how much was Paul? And they could have 2 really weak headliners to make up the cost.

[obzen]

Seriously though,U2 and Muse are already doing a tour together this year.

Why would GV want to duplicate that by acquiring both of those acts for next year,that's just plain lazy-I say one or the other,but not both.

the rumor if I remember correctly last year was to have U2 perform the Joshua Tree...so it isn't so far fetched.

[obzen]

Yeah but after this year,it doesn't sound as appealing.

[crazzz2007]

hopefully Pretty lights isn't placed against the Sahara closer... that would be a rough choice...

haven't you seen Pretty Lights already? that would be a pretty easy choice if you have.

[Coachella Bound]

ok now this i would support. I just cant stand the new U2, the music or who theyve become. But to cover a classic like that... Thats completely different. And yeah if they only did it for COACHELLA it would still hold major significance over the rest of the tour.



I bet they do.... fucking jerkoffs.

[obzen]

You should post that one in the Hurt/Heal thread.

[nationocean]

good job for summerkid for starting this before someone stooopid does .. .

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

you kids.. haha, coachella vets are going to do just fine this year. i do have a couple.. 'ideas' i was going to try this year. lets see what happens

Yeah, I had a feeling that with Thom Yorke, Massive Attack and Pavemet we should be set.

[nbvcide]

who knew who Fleet Foxes were this time last year and look where they ended up

EVERYONE.

didnt he say how corporate it was and sounded negative to me

if GV's Coachella seemed so corporate to him.. then why would they headline GV's Detour six months later?

awesome, first time in years that jeff says that they aren't headlining! 100% guaranteed that underworld headlines the sahara tent.

they DO need to make up their SoCal date.. just sayin'

do you just type the same shit every year? these are all the same acts you predicted last year!

ummm i'm gonna assume that you know he's played before...

no shit sherlock.. Kanye West '09 is NOT the same thing as Kanye West '06..

I'm sorry, I had the impression that this was the Coachella Message Board, not the douche-prone, twat-flicking, scatterbrain, mindless fucking speculation message board.

FIXED.
