Best Potential (Realistic) 2012 Headliners Poll

[Edmontonian]

Scrolled quickly through the polls and didn't see a 'realistic' headliner poll so I made one. Just looking through the rumours/wishlist threads and also looking through the Fake Posters thread I picked out a number of bands that people seem to think are possible headliners, also put in acts that headlined Lolla and 'Roo last year, and left off acts that have headlined RECENTLY or would be considered VERY UNLIKELY (ie. the 3 R's - Reunions, Robots, Resurrections) by the majority of boardmembers.

Sooooo the question is simple, which of these acts would you be most happy with as headliners?

Coldplay
Radiohead
No Doubt
Foo Fighters
Pearl Jam
Bjork
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Beastie Boys
Eminem
Outkast

Bowie, Rolling Stones, and Daft Punk for the win!

Radiohead, bjork, and in the spirit of coachella beasties over pearl jam

[seandigi]

I hope for Radiohead, Bjork, and Slim. Outkast isn't happening any time soon...

Outkast isnt realistic at all. I dont care if Bjork headlines, there will be something at the Mojave or Sahara to end the night.

I chose Radiohead, Bjork and Pearl Jam. I feel that is my best possible combo, as they are all bands I'd like to see, and haven't seen live yet. I've seen Foo Fighters, which was a fun show at Lolla, but I'd be a little disappointed to go so far to see FF again. It could be worse I suppose. I think that if we look at the way Coachella has been going over the past few years, there's a good chance there will be a hip hop headliner.

I saw Eminem at Bonnaroo, and it was okay, but he plays too much of his new stuff. He dedicated less than a quarter of his time to the first half of his career, which is the only part I actually like. I skipped him at Lolla for this reason, and stayed to see My Morning Jacket (slow) and Lykke Li (much better) on the North side. I feel that the Beasties would be a better show. They've never really had a bad point in their career, and I missed seeing them when they had to cancel Lolla in 09.

I don't think Outkast will happen. Too much against them coming back together. Not that I wouldn't really like to see them, but it's just not happening.

For the others:
RHCP: I have no desire to see them. I'm bored by anything they've put out in the past 10 years.
No Doubt: I'm not really a fan of anything from ND, maybe just a couple songs. I'll pass.
Coldplay: I actually wouldn't mind seeing them since I stayed on the south end and watched Muse at Lollapalooza this year. Muse was pretty boring, so I kind of wish I'd seen Coldplay instead. I never thought I'd say that.
