Modest Mouse 2012

[GeoffreyB]

New album in the works(Produced by Big Boi).. Can see them as one of the subheadliners.

[theripped]

I could see them headlining actually.

[WhyTheLongFace]

Whole album produced by Big Boi?!!?

[icedKeg]

was their only coachella appearance in '99?

[rjadams90]

Yes!!

[cutterbutter]

Bring it. So down.

[KidRobot]

I doubt that Modest Mouse would headline, but could see them as first or second on the second line. Definitely top subheadliners.

[zircona1]

Yeah, they've got my vote, even though people have said that sometimes they're great live and sometimes they're terrible. I've only gotten into them in the past year.

[Gribbz]

I didn't know Big Boi was working with them. Might have to check that album out.

You trollin'?

[Stickjohn]

They just announced some Nov dates on their website - 2 shows in TX and a festival in Brazil.

[ods..]

They're SO awesome live.

[RodFed1993]

I've heard so many great things about Modest Mouse live, but when I saw them at the Street Scene in 2009, they were completely dead. No energy at all. But I would definitely give them another chance if they played Coachella 2012.

[PJandBompton]

amazing that they haven't played since '99.

and i'm wondering why the fuck i didn't catch them at SS09.

edit - damn, looks like i was at Donald Glaude then Girl Talk...

[heart cooks brain]

never seen a bad set from them. would like to see a Lonesome Crowded West show, or something.

Sign all of that shit.

[icedKeg]

heart cooks brain - this is your band, ay?

i've never been a super fan of modest mouse, but i found myself really enjoying their set at OSL in 2009

fuck yes (your name says it all)

No, they headlined Sasquatch. If The Killers can headline Coachella why can't Modest Mouse? They certainly have the songs to do it.

[knytt]

I could see them co-headlining with like Wilco

[Gribbz]

You know who else headlined Sasquatch? Ween. I guess that means they can headline too, eh?

Also, the Killers/Jack Johnson argument is and always will be extremely weak. I dislike both artists but it's pretty obvious they're big enough to headline.

You know why the Killers and Jack Johnson are headliners and Modest Mouse isn't? Because they're infinitely more successful in terms of record sales and are vastly more popular.

[heart cooks brain]

yeah, modest mouse can't headline. although an album produced by big boi is kind of a wild card. I'm very interested to see how it turns out.

[noolan]

Signed!

[heart cooks brain]

it should also be pointed out (again) that Isaac hates festivals. He berated the P4k crowd in '10 for buying bottled water on a 98F day in July, and played a shitty setlist.

edit: and i'm pretty sure someone (dorkfish maybe?) will tell you that they hate coachella even more. don't remember why.

[Stickjohn]

seems to be OK with Sasquatch though ...

[rage patton]

Modest Mouse fucking destroyed at Sasquatch this year. Their set was so fantastic it is almost hard for me to get over. The Cowboy Dan jam was one of the best jams I have ever witnessed in my entire life.

[GuyInTucson]

I am so for this. They are long overdue to play again.

Local.
