Janelle Monae
Klaxons
Royksopp
Beirut
Lykke Li
Digitalism
The Go! team
Miami Horror

Queens of the Stone Age
Justice

Memory Tapes
Danger

Radiohead

I was liking the few memory tapes songs I downloaded before my computer crashed. Sadly I haven't had the chance to get into them. Do they put on a good live show?

[Miroir Noir]

yeah, on any future poster wouldn't daft punk (as loved as they are here) be put in the same position that the chems were on the 2011 poster?

No. Unlike a lot of other boardie obsessions, pretty much everyone in the universe likes Daft Punk.

[nationocean]

lol. it's like people who play the same lotto numbers... MAYBE SOME DAY!!!!

David Blowie
Daft Punk
Radiohead

but will probably look something closer to this:
My Morning Jacket
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Wilco

sub:
Garbage
Sonic Youth
Florence + the Machine

[obzen]

Please standby...

[DJ Sin]

Gary Numan is my prediction

[PJandBompton]

i'm pretty certain the headliners will be out of these...

Pearl Jam
Radiohead
Outkast
Dr. Dre
Daft Punk
Beck (could POSSIBLY headline after 4 year hiatus...)
Rolling Stones
Foo Fighters

with Justice and Death Cab for Cutie there.

[Commander Corn]

Radiohead/R.E.M./Red Hot Chili Peppers

[PJandBompton]

but will probably look something closer to this:
My Morning Jacket
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Wilco

are we talking about Coachella or Bonnaroo?

[Mr. Porter]

What the fuck has Missy Elliot been doing recently to warrant a coachella appearance

[nathanfairchild]

quiiieeeeeeeeet, husha mouth!

[tigermilkboy]

Coldplay-Death Cab For Cutie-Florence and the Machine-

Foo Fighters-QOTSA-Underworld-

Neil Young-Fleet Foxes-The Decemberists-

[betao]

I'm convinced that they've asked Neil Young to play every year since 2009 and when they tell him he's subheadlining to a now mainstream indie rock act, he just laughs and hangs up the phone on them.

[betao]

also

every fucking year you guys predict Daft Punk.

every. fucking. year.

give it a rest so you may at least be surprised if it does happen eventually

[desertcinema]

Headliners:
Dr. Dre
Foo Fighters
Phoenix/The Cars

Subheadlines:
Fleet Foxes
My Morning Jacket
The Decemberists
Modest Mouse
Adele
Basement Jaxx
Bloc Party
Girl Talk
Lupe Fiasco
Arctic Monkeys
M.I.A.

Just to defend Phoenix for a second, I could easily see them Headlining, even with them just being there 2 years ago. If you're booking bands for next year now, whats to distinguish them from Kings of Leons resume? KoL had 5 albums, 2 incredibly big hits in the US and had played Coach before. If Phoenix ends up releasing their 5th album this year, they're in the same boat. At least 2 incredibly big US hits (maybe more if the album is well recieved) and have played Coach before. Who knows, I mean it's a year out and there are so many maybes it's hard to even say but.

Headliners:
Dr. Dre
Foo Fighters
Phoenix/The Cars

Subheadlines:
Fleet Foxes
My Morning Jacket
The Decemberists
Modest Mouse
Adele
Basement Jaxx
Bloc Party
Girl Talk
Lupe Fiasco
Arctic Monkeys
M.I.A.

I'd love to know what drugs, or lack there of, that you're taking that makes you think M.I.A. will ever reappear at Coachella.

Agreed.

Also, the David Bowie pipe dream needs to die. He's not interested in music anymore PERIOD. Let alone performing live.

At least Daft Punk are still making music.

This would be the year I decided to sell my tickets off. It'd be cool to see DP live.... but not cool enough to attend any festival that uses EITHER Cold Play or A Perfect Circle as their anti-headliners. You sir, are seriously stupid. Yes, I'm mentally formulating a list that you can all soon make fun of yourselves =)

Well I guess I apologize for not listing Radiohead, David Bowie, Outkast or any other unrealistic choices you'll likely choose instead of the ones I used which are much more likely.

Besides this is a prediction, not a wishlist tard.

[brycerosen]

to all those thinking Phoenix could headline, there show at sdsu open air theater (about half the size of the greek theater) was about 30-40 percent filled just last year. they may have got a lot of radio play but there not that big



my guesses:
Beastie Boys
Pearl Jam
Daft Punk

My Wishes:
Stevie Wonder
Daft Punk
Pearl Jam

[Mak Attack]

Should have had Matthew Dear this year. Please have him in 2012. And it's about time for IAMX. (Really want a Sneaker Pimps set but I've given up on that.)

[Neutral Milk Hotel]

Uh, they sold out the Hollywood Bowl and headlined KROQ Almost Acoustic Xmas. Subheadliners don't do that. If they play, they headline.

[ELECtROjan]

at Outside Lands in August Phoenix said they were going to take a break from touring to work on their next album. 2013 seems more feasible

[Neutral Milk Hotel]

Yeah, but by Coachella 2012 it will have been more than a year since they said that.
