Oldchella 2013

[TomAz]

Bob Mould. must have.

Eric Clapton is doing his Crossroads guitar festival sometime in April at Madison Square Garden and probably one of the Coachella weekends. That should make it tough(not impossible) for any act to do the Eric event and Coachella.

Though I'm not sure how many possible acts are being persued by both events. I'd love to see Jeff Beck at Coachella.

Basically anyone on this list won't be on the Coachella lineup, though only a tiny handful had any likelihood. Surprised Matt Bellamy from MUSE isn't on the list as he's on the east coast and has a day off.

No he doesn't.

[Bumblebee]

No he doesn't.

Muse play Boston 4/12 and MSG strarting 4/15. 13th is open and you don't have to play both days at Crossroads.

Thanks for the heads-up. Muse is headlining Coachella on both Saturdays.

There's about a 9 hour window to move light rigging across the country including 5+ hours on a plane. Then doing it again a week later.

Who said they were moving anything other than themselves?

Sad, really

[scenicworld]

after watching the 12/12/12 concert I'm reminded of how awesome Billy Joel is.

[Bob_Loblaw]

I'd go nuts if I saw Santana at Coachella

[nbvcide]

Ray Davies. The Kinks are obviously preferred... but I don't see that happening.

i would love any of that.

We have to include Madonna, just to make fun of how old she is.

if she's not actually going to sing, she shouldn't be there.




The Smiths

Nirvana

Led Zeppelin

[nuclearstevem]

I could see Jefferson Airplane playing “Surrealistic Pillow” in its entirely on the Outdoor Stage to end one of the nights.

[franticbabe]

Stray Cats reunion
Brenton Wood
Los Lobos

I think its a lil to soon for the Cure again.

NICE ! STRAY CATS <3

[mikebspeedracer]

Elton John

This is an "old" act I would really like to see. There should be a festival for seasoned groups to keep people from suggesting a lot of these acts for Coachella. Santana, to me, is major. Too old to headline, and far too substantial to play Coachella if he's not headlining. Same goes for Neil Young. These acts are cut from a far different, far superior cloth. They don't belong at a festival where e-tards are frequently found at the wrong stage in between acts. They belong at Oldchella, where people show up for the aged acts, and can properly appreciate them.

[nuclearstevem]

I'm down for some Santana at Coachella! He's all about House of Blues in Vegas though these days. He's doing some over sea's shows in February and March and back to Vegas in May. Looks like he has April all free.

Go fuck yourself.

The Who (playing Quadrophenia)

Lou Reed

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

Patti Smith

Elvis Costello & the Imposters

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds

the Mekons

Siouxsie & the Banshees

Reunions: the Replacements, the Jam, Husker Du

Unattainable holy grail: Bowie

I would love this. But then again, I'm old.

[krk67]

I'm "old" also and I'm on board with those^ suggestions, though I'd be surprised if Mould and Hart appeared on stage together ever again.

Instead, I'll take Bob Mould Band ("The Descent" is a total earworm). I'd also steal the Fugazi suggestion.

Basically, give me any band that has sac and melody (Redd Kross, Superchunk, early Nick Lowe, etc). I'm so sick of the herky-jerky wuss, keyboards and hand-dancing of today.

[JoeCthulhu]

Jerry Lee Lewis

Go fuck yourself.

Go ahead and cry about it. We'll wait.

I disagree on so many levels. Sure there are young kids wandering aimlessly but who cares?? Some of the most best concerts I've seen were "older" acts... Prince, Roger Waters, Paul Weller. That's what I love about Coachella! You can see bands like that and then go to another stage to see up and coming talent. Besides that, maybe the younger crowd can gain appreciation for bands that have been around. When I was watching the Buzzcocks play last year there were tons of young teenagers singing along.

You don't follow directions very well. I told you to go fuck yourself. Now get to it.

Prince and Roger Waters aren't too big for Coachella. That's what you fail to realize. Prince has, arguably, one or two good albums. Roger Waters is PART of a great band that no longer exists. Did Paul Weller or the Buzzcocks headline? Neil Young could easily play a four hour set. Have you ever seen a headliner at Coachella play a four hour set? Now you're trying to tell me that Neil Young is comparable to any COACHELLA headliners in drawing power? We've all heard the stories of him headlining other venues. Cool stories, lil bros. Go ahead and tell them again. If you have SMH vs. Neil Young. Chemical Brothers vs. Neil Young. Deadmau5 vs. Neil Young. Any major non-DP EDM act will overthrow him as a headliner, if they're put on any other stage at the same time as him. Paul McCartney, on the other hand. Roger Waters, on the other hand. Prince, on the other hand. Is it starting to make any sense to you? Neil Young has practically no airplay, and the majority of his fans won't buy tickets to Coachella, because the tickets are already sold out (by the time the lineup drops, eh). You guys can rage about this all you want, but it's 100% the word of God.

Perhaps because the directions you gave were tear-stained to the point of illegibility. Try again.

I think it's funny that you have to change your argument to try and refute what we've been saying here. You were arguing that old acts don't belong at Coachella. Nobody was talking about headliners. Follow the conversation.

Santana has a Vegas radius clause preventing him from being booked at Coachella for 2 YEARS.

Where did I say that? What's wrong with modifying stances, if in fact I did say that? It must suck to be the same person without variation year after year. Tell us about it.
