The Band Breakup/Reunion Rumors Thread

[Somewhat Damaged]

Guess that rules them out for Coachella next year.

[Miroir Noir]

It will just give Dave Grohl time to record with Daft Punk, who are confirmed for Coachella.

[JustSteve]

Dave talks a lot, so who knows. A hiatus for Foo would hopefully mean a return to the studio for Them Crooked Vultures. Although, Queens is in the studio now so would guess they would be touring before any of that happens.

"by dedicating his "Three Days" song to them." Assume that is "These Days" the writer is referring to. My god what a shitty article.

This needs to happen

[TickleMeElmo]

This is sort of a blessing in disguise.

[suprefan]

Why doesn't somebody just go find him here in the valley and ask him? It's not like he lives in a fortress or something.

[cutterbutter]

Remember last time someone spoke to Dave in Ventura and he said Coachella was totally happening?

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

It's highly possible they just want to take time off and spend time with their families.

[JustSteve]

Dave posted on Facebook that he was just talking to the fans in the uk about shows in the uk and for the internets to stop eavesdropping.

Just saw that NME came out with a list of worlds richest drummers, Dave Grohl at #3 with $225 million. Def. doesn't need to tour.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

That is such a misnomer calling him one of the "world's richest drummers," but yes, the dude has a lot of money.

[nathanfairchild]

He's still a drummer to me, dammit!

[Derekx]

According to Cedric Bixler-Zavala's Twitter, The Mars Volta have broken up.

sounds like omar just doesnt give a shit about anything.

[rage patton]

THANK. GOD.

[unit300021]

If this was 7 years ago or so I might actually give a shit.

Wasn't the point of the ATDI reunion to put money into TMV?

[bmack86]

Sounds like Omar is kind of a huge dick based on reading all of this. He says in an interview that hanging out with all his "friends, the At The Drive-In guys" inspired him to start a "Band for the first time in years," rather than something he started and led and dictated. So that's how he treats his friends? Standing on stage, looking like he's hating every minute of working together while Cedric gives his all to make things work?

Fuck Omar.

[roboticwaltz]

Saw that one coming a mile away....

[stinkbutt]

Whatever guys, this is the best thing he has ever done, btw they are touring right now with a really good opener

[nathanfairchild]

It's too bad things ended so badly between Cedric and Omar. The two warm up ATDI shows I saw in Texas were a blast but it was pretty obvious that Omar wasn't feeling it.

[Santa]

You get new music and you complain about some irrelevant band breaking up. Get a hold of yourselves people. It's not like they were Radiohead or anything.

[bmack86]

Black Flag. None of this bullshit Keith Morris, Chuck Dukowski and whoever they find to play the other instruments Black Flag. Greg Ginn. Dukowski. Robo. Ron Reyes. FUCKING BLACK FLAG.

Fuck Coachella, get me to England.

Edit: I guess Dukowski's not there. Hmph. Still, no one else they get would do the noise solos that Ginn will nail. Hopefully Robo wears his metal bracelets.

[Miroir Noir]

UPDATE: Chuck Dukowski is not involved.

[bmack86]

he's too busy playing with Fake Flag in Las Vegas probably.

[Miroir Noir]

Haha they threw in some free buffet dinners and $100 in chips

[bmack86]

And bowling, apparently!

[swhite423]

So the VIOLENT FEMMES are reuniting at Coachella?!

[dorkfish]

So Coachella got these reunion:

Jurassic 5
The Three O'Clock
Violent Femmes
The Postal Service
Grinderman (kinda)
