Thom Yorke is playing 2010

[uniform72]

Thom's name is way too big to be put on the Outdoor stage.

Wouldn't be surprised if Pavement and Thom Yorke were reversed. Something tells me there's going to be a Pavement/Orbital conflict somewhere in there. Still an amazing day, regardless of how it works out.

[ficklecycle]

I think it'll be original material from Thom Yorke & The ????'s.

[TallGuyCM]

Just popped in The Eraser, the first piano notes from the title track gave me chills. Absolutely mesmerizing at the Orpheum, can't wait for his return!

And are you crazy? If Pavement was the Sunday headliner, that's the only way they would conflict with Orbital. There's no way the Sunday main stage sub-headliner is any danger to the Sahara headliner.

Don't even get me started, I've already got chills down my spine thinking of hearing "Hearing Damage" live.

[shoegazer76]

A guest appearance by PJ Harvey would be quite nice.

Yes, I'm crazy. I'm actually thinking that Phoenix will close the Sahara, and I'm hoping for this because that *might* lessen the severity of an Orbital conflict.

EDIT: A Pavement/Orbital conflict is severe, really just hoping for the best or something else. However, for some reason my spidey-sense is tingling on this one.

HA! phoenix will play the outdoor theatre.

[TallGuyCM]

HA! phoenix will play the outdoor theatre.

Yep, I picture them closing the Outdoor.

[amyzzz]

I don't see Phoenix in the Sahara.

[paulthomasanderson]

Outdoor. This is the Thom Yorke thread people! Your hearing damage...

[cubrocker]

I don't see Phoenix in the Sahara.

thats because it wont happen. ting tings were odd in the sahara- phx definately wont be. maybe mgmt though? eh probably not.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

I will shit bricks if he pulls out Hearing Damage, Jet Stream or Drukk Machine.

[shearyanne]

YAY
so excited, his show at the orpheum in LA was amazing!

[uniform72]

Pardon the diversion. Do y'all agree that Thom will be on the main stage? My first thought was that he would close the outdoor, and I still would not be surprised. The possible extended set-up time for the Gorillaz has been brought up at least once, which was one of the reasons why... but I will be there whenever, wherever it happens.

Thom's too big of a draw not to be on the main stage. Maybe Orbital or Sly plays during the Gorillaz set-up time?

This needs to happen.

[Mammoth85]

His solo show at The Orpheum was fantastic. He really showed off his personality and dance moves. He played about and hour and 15-20 minutes. I can't wait to see him again, hopefully he plays Mainstage before Gorillaz.

[cubrocker]

heh all the thom fans are so jizzing their shorts right now- im no exception

[uniform72]

(Missing) Thom Yorke at the Orpheum = biggest regret of 2009

[dahboom]

"you can do no wrong....in my eyes..."

awww maaan he's gotta play that right? ha!

[amyzzz]

You missed out. He was amazing.

[bartelby]

in a perfect world pavement closes out the outdoor theatre right in between yorke/gorillaz sets

[TallGuyCM]

in a perfect world pavement plays the main stage at sunset right before the yorke/gorillaz sets

Fixed.

With any luck... so's I don't have to hear it.

[cubrocker]

[ballroomdancer22]

Out of all the songs you'll see, Harrowdown Hill is the song where Flea just KILLS it. Incredible.

[nationocean]

Can Thom Yorke do a cover of "Sexy Bitch" from Guetta. or better yet, just cover a Jay-Z song. That would be strange and epic!

[cristóbal]

Thom Yorke and his band are going to be the ultimate set of the weekend. This alone is worth a trip to Indio. I hope he does some of the new tracks and of course Atoms for Peace and Rained All Night and ,,,,etc. So damn surprised/delighted with this.

[tabasco]

Awesome awesome.....radiohead would have been better but i will take Yorke above any of the headliners
