HARD SUMMER 2012 - August 3rd & 4th @ LA State Historic Park

[JorgeC]

So based on the upcoming HARD lineups can we pretty much count on

Boys Noize
Gessafelstein
Brodinksi
Knife Party
Jack Beats
Caspa
Oliver

Any other lineup predictions? I'm thinking they'll make some announcements during Coachella, or if this thing sells out well in advance, they won't even need to print flyers like how Coachella has done the last 2 years.

I love Boys Noize but enough is enough.. Let's get someone else to headline one of these.

aphex twin!

Not happening.

I bet $100 Justice headlines one night. Especially with the whole #trustus thing they tweeted today and the first pic being Justice in front of the cross. And they did take a lot of Sahara acts from Coachella for last summer (Boys Noize, Ratatat, Duck Sauce, Skrillex, OFWGKTA). I hope they book NERD or Santigold. I miss when HARD used to book non-electronic acts. I'm surprised Gary doesn't more often considering he's trying to erase that rave notion off HARD

It makes sense, but that is also the name of their new app, no?

[WhyTheLongFace]

I count all those as EDM acts except Ratatat & Odd Future. Dont know who Holy Ghost is.

And yeah it is the name of the app but I think it relates back.

[JorgeC]

Chemical Brothers would be awesome.

[heyeric]

Well, I'll take Digitalism since I can't make the 2/14 date at dim mak . I haven't seen them since Nocturnal a few years back and the set was a little underwhelming.

Their set at HARD summer last year was great and you're not missing anything on the 14th it's just a DJ set

Boys Noize, Gessafelstein, Jack Beats all played last year and Caspa was on the original poster but had to drop. Digitalism has played the last two years.They aren't going to bring back an identical lineup.

Why dont you tell the people who put on edc the same thing when 75% of the line up is the same every year? Nobody is going to care, theyll see the same artist again.

The lineup isn't going to be an exact copy of last year just like 2011 wasn't an exact copy of 2010. While there might be a couple of repeats, I would expect the lineup to be fairly different. Also you overestimate the similarities between EDCs. The only act I saw in 2010 and 2011 was Boys Noize.

What I am wondering is whether they will stick with four stages or go back to two like they had in 2010.

[blitzerdog]

I want them to bring back Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs.

Fatboy Slim should headline. Or Chemical Brothers. I have a feeling Oliver is gonna be playing earlyish, where they had Dillon Francis play last year. I want knife party. They could have Mr. Oizo

[LetThereBeLight]

T.E.E.D. is so much fun to watch. Anyone see him at hhm? Was he wearing the dino suit?
