They broke up

[rage patton]

^^^lol

[HandBanana]

I heard The Arcade Fires wanted too little money and GV was like "eff u Haitians!" and then they asked The Staind and they were like "sure bros" cuz The Stainds care much more about their fans and also world politics affairs (see their song "Letting the Bodies Hitting the Floors" on Hulu) and so they are gonna play and I asked them at their show if they are gonna play and they winked at me and then they said "...it's been awhile" which I think is a song but I've never heard that song but I preceded I did and I STILL got a hi-five from the 3 Doors Downs.

[liquidsnake28]

That was the worst attempt at humor I've ever seen.

[Boourns]

THE STAIND

[obzen]

...and then they asked The Staind...

STFU HANDBANANZA!!!!!!!!

[Boourns]

It's been a while since they asked, yes?

[ldobbie]

I posted this in the other rumor thread, but anyways, I chatted with rusko a little bit after a show he just played here, told him I was at the coachella set/liked it and he said he's coming back next year, for what it's worth. Not overly surprising/exciting but there it is.

[CellarOwl]

Crystal Castles touring March/April, no LA show yet.

[RedThom]

who is better at this internet game? Handbanana or GPS?

[dorkfish]

One uses Google Image search. The other copy/pastes memes. It's a toss up.

[danteb]

Psychedelic Furs

[Cuddlesthesheep]

can i please get Avicii, Axwell, or Style of Eye!

[CellarOwl]

Psychedelic Furs

Why don't they just go all out and grab Modern English & Flock of Seagulls while they're at it?

[concertgoer]

I like the Furs but I don't see Goldenvoice booking them just because they have done two big tours in the last 18 months so they really would not be a big reunion-rare act like
PIL, The Specials, Numan or Devo
Also The Furs have some great songs Pretty In Pink, The Ghost In You, Love My Way and Heartbreak Beat to name a few.

[WhyTheLongFace]

Crystal Castles touring March/April, no LA show yet.

They play Fox Theater though

[Boourns]

But not LA proper. I bet Coachella is why.

[Boourns]

Psychedelic Furs

Seriously?

[rage patton]

But not LA proper. I bet Coachella is why.

Someone on the board, CoachellaBlood i think, talked to them a week or so ago and they said they were confirmed for 2011.

[Boourns]

Interesting. Evening outdoor theater act?

[rage patton]

I was thinking Crystal Castles will probably close the mojave one night.

[Boourns]

oh I was refering to the furs

[danteb]

Seriously?

Just a rumor, don't know if there is any truth to it.

[muppetfreaks]

I would see the shit outta Will Smith. No joke.

hahaha fuck yea

[amyzzz]

Is this the wishlist thread or the sort of confirmed thread? There are two threads, so....

Anyway, I want some bands my kids like to be there next year:
Dungen
Eisley
White Stripes
Radiohead

[TallGuyCM]

Your kids like Dungen?

[Gribbz]

Jonsi should come back. Give him a proper set (at night) in one of the tents.

[obzen]

Either that or Sigur Ros, as far as I'm concerned.

[Gribbz]

Either that or Sigur Ros, as far as I'm concerned.

That would be great, but I don't think Sigur Ros will be back until they're done recording new material. I guess it's possible.

Before taking the stage in April at Coachella 2010, Jónsi commented that Sigur Rós will be getting back to work this year: "I'm gonna record some other stuff with Sigur Rós when I'm home", which will take place between a series of shows during his solo tour in summer 2010.
