[303dubbin]

yes. havent seen them in a few years and they are coming out with a new album soon.

[GuyInTucson]

yes please

[Neighborhood Creep]

Haven't seen them in about 10 years. When I did it was amazing. They had the crowd throw all their bottles and pizza boxes up in the air and it literally felt like it was raining garbage for half their set.

[noolan]

Really enjoyed them at Wakarusa 08, so yes please.

They were a night act on the Outdoor nine years ago only a couple of years after their popularity blew up. They aren't going to be at Coachella, but if they were, there isn't a chance in hell they are an afternoon act in the Mojave.

They're washed up, they would. I've seen way better bands reunite to play the Mojave in the afternoon

Got my ticket for the show on the 20th. Should be fun, I think I still have one of their cassette tapes from Jr High

19th here! Excited.

Cake will be performing 2 sets a night during their upcoming Showroom of Compassion tour.

My wife and I are going to their show at the Fillmore on Valentine's Day. It should be quite the show.

That's your opinion. It doesn't mean you are right. Cake would NOT be an afternoon act in the Mojave.

Problem is, we won't get to prove how wrong you are because they won't be at Coachella.

- Their first album since 04
- All of their albums have been relatively successful
- They've been together for 20 years.
- They've experienced mainstream success since the mid-90's.

Afternoon in the Mojave my ass.

I wanted to go to the Saturday show but it sold out before I could get tickets so Ill have to settle with Chromeo in Pomona Saturday and Cake at The Troubadour Sunday

Had not seen that the Saturday show sold out. I wonder how much are left for the others 3 dates. I'm curious to see how much they will mix it up from night to night.

They were on The Outdoor. The got on late because of the act before them, and then the main stage totally dronwed them out. They were not happy.

[theripped]

That's unfortunate, I've been listening to samples of their new album on their site. Sounds pretty funky
