[Drewski27]

I'm guessing you're all pretty big Deadmau5 fans, amirite?

this must make you feel somewhat confused...

or maybe you fail to see the irony, just as you failed to see the irony of you blindly raging and hating on Insomniac events. Keep it up

[Drewski27]

that's too bad. Oh well. So we're all good on Yeah Yeah Yeah's headlining then right?

the saddest thing of all is that you think i give a flying fuck about anything involving Richie Hawtin. it's just my avatar. you're probably one of those people that think randy is a huge fan on lance armstrong aren't you.

yeah, i was gonna say, isn't randy just a huge fan of supre?

LOL at Madonna period.

LOL that Madonna no longer has a period.

Because apples and oranges, dumbfuck.

really? can u give me ANY example of another apple then? or, as an alternate, name any American festival that shares as many acts/headliners as Lolla & Chella have.

Zing. Gross, but zing.

Austin City Limits.

[nbvcide]

ACL is more like Coachella than Lolla? or just in regards to common acts?

[nathanfairchild]

acl is more like lolla than anything. run by same company.

[Zafocaine]

Personally, I'd like to see the fest take a year off the rap Headliner if can't get Outkast and go with an Old Timer in one of the three slots next year.

Yes. Quite a few less-than-headliner rap acts I'd like to see at Coachella, but Outkast is the only headliner worthy rap act I'm hoping for. Anything else would be total disappointment. The reality of this? Google "Outkast 2013" just to find a link back to Coachella.com message board. Unfortunate. Drake will never be a headliner at Coachella unless 100% of the tickets are sold to 19 year old girls, and the 24 year old guys trying to bang them. I keep praying to myself that the actual lineup headliners will look nothing like any of the fake posters. Hopefully GV has some surprises that none of us saw coming!

It's funny to hear people talk about the " hip hop headliner spot" when two of those acts Jay-Z and Dre and Snoop were replacements for The Who and Black Sabbath. There is no headliner formula.

[Zafocaine]

Replacements/ improvements. This isn't 1982. The Who and Sabbath would have been great headliners thirty years ago, but I think they fall under the category of line 2-3 reunion act, personally. Reunion spot aside, Ozzy relies heavily on a great backing band to do the work for him. Showmanship isn't exactly his thing.

It's funny to hear people talk about "replacements" as fact when it's pure speculation/rumor/bullshit stories made up by bullshitters.

here we go again....

I heard Culture Club is gonna headline all three days....

Ok jackass

The Who second line reunion act? Are you fucking serious? Do you even think about what you are writing before you post it? I have had many laughs over the last few days watching you and Randy mix it up, but you sir are an ignorant jackass. I see from your picture that you are just a punk kid, so we might attribute some of this to youthful exubarance. The Who, Prince, Roger Waters( he was in a band named Pink Floyd), Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney (he was a Beatle) are icons of the last forty years of music. Oh yeah three of them (and probably four) have headlined Coachella. Please stop acting like you actually have a coherent thought in your peas sized brain. Thank you.

lol let's see.... Macca is a Beatle. Beatles are, to this day, bigger than Jesus. Roger Waters is basically responsible for Pink Floyd, a band that EVERY stoner has an album of. Prince is fucking Prince, and that's the way it is. Also.... weren't Prince and Roger Waters surprise headliners? AKA not used to sell tickets or promote the show. Rolling Stones have no American festival clout, and have used the retirement ploy to exhaustion. The Who aren't even the real Who. Sabbath isn't the real Sabbath. Like I said. Tier 2-3 reunion acts. Not even worthy of SURPRISE headliner spot. Your dad being a big fan of The Who doesn't make them marketable in 2013. Sorry, kid.

[RotationSlimWang]

Yeah, I mean they only played The Superbowl. That's not that big of a gig.

[Zafocaine]

With that logic, it's safe to assume that The Who, Franklin Central High School Drumline, and LMFAO will all be headlining 2013. Sure glad you cleared this up for us.

Go on...

[concertgoer]

Zafocaine is such a fucking moron
Dude needs to lay off the meth

[malcolmjamalawesome]

He does raise a good point about surprise headliner Roger Waters.

[Drewski27]

OH MY GOD. HOW DARE A BAND THAT WAS POPULAR FOR SEVERAL DECADES EVEN BE BROUGHT UP FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER.

[RotationSlimWang]

His points are endless.

[Zafocaine]

Because nothing says "I'm better than you" than resorting to name calling when you can't formulate a proper argument. Question: Why do overweight people like to call thin people meth addicts? I've already admitted to having a sweet tooth for good drugs. Meth/ heroin/ pcp/ e never making the list. Weed/ hash/ alcohol/ molly/ mushrooms certainly making the list. Does this offend you, or are you trying to score some amphetamines? I tend to avoid people who use drugs I don't condone. Maybe you should avoid people you speculate use drugs you don't condone. Save us both some time
