2013 Lineup Confirmation/Rumors Thread

[concertgoer]

He was talking about All Points West.

Oh yeah I forgot about that.

[WhatLies]

Both arguments as to who was the replacement seem valid. However looking at the poster it makes more sense thatdre and snoop were the replacements. Justice > atdi > black sabbath Sunday with Pulp > black keys > shm on Friday is logistically and promotionally a better look than pulp > dre & snoop > shm. It's hard to imagine having shm close after dre and snoop, especially with the tupac hologram. That just seems anti climatic and against the convention. over the last 3 years No edm act played after tje rap headliner, rather they've been bundled with the contemporary rock band

[Bumblebee]

I have to wonder if Dre aquired a profit sharing deal considering he already had a deal with burning Man and if he indeed had the bargaining power of being last minute booking. Also, Snoop already had the Austrian gig booked during W1 which eventually got cancelled in January 2012 because of a pot bust.

Makes me wonder what possible 2013 headliners(not named The Smiths) would get the big money and which would be the "cheaper" options. Where does Daft Punk fit on the money spectrum?

"FIRST CLASS AT COACHELLA: There’s plenty of chatter about Radiohead being offered a percentage of gross receipts to convince them to play two shows at this year’s expanded, sold-out Coachella. The festival’s talent budget reportedly swelled to more than $30 million, which is just a fraction of the overhead to put on the massive event. Whether or not they received backend, weekend headliners Radiohead and Dr. Dre/Snoop Dogg reportedly scored $4 million paydays for the two shows, with $2 million apiece going to Friday co-headliners The Black Keys and Swedish House Mafia. Sources say Goldenvoice chief Paul Tollett sold 180,000 tickets for the two weekends at an average of $300 a pop, earning the company a whopping $54 million gross. Last year’s festival drew 75,000 per day for a then-record total of $24.9 million, up from 2010’s $21.7 million. (4/17p)"

As for GV carefully planning the mainstage evenining schedule....it was fun watching the various fans of DFA79/Duran/Strokes/Kanye "mingle" between changeovers.

[Phunkevil]

I'm just happy Pulp won't be back. Might have been the most boring set I've watched in my 12 years of attendance.

[concertgoer]

Worst opinion

TOTALLY UNNECESSARY BRO.

fuck off you poor excuse for a gaping anus pulp was the shit

Pulp sounded great. The crowd, however, was abysmal. I can only imagine how much better their shows are when they're playing to a crowd that actually knows who they are.

[Boourns]

Fucking nuts at primavera.

Where did these people get the idea that The Black Keys and Swedish House Mafia "co-headlined"?

[captncrzy]

He probably found it on google

[nathanfairchild]

Where did these people get the idea that The Black Keys and Swedish House Mafia "co-headlined"?

Probably the same people that think Muse and Tiësto co-headlined.

[theklein25]

As well as the people who said The Chemical Brothers headlined in 2011

[DaFunkyPrecedent]

I'm totally going to get flamed for this, but here it goes anyway. A friend of mine knows this guy that does the booking for some Goldenvoice owned venus in LA and Pomona, and he said that Daft Punk and GV were finalizing the details on their booking contract for next years Coachella. From what he said, the details are minor and, if all goes favorably, they should be signing the contract before the end of next week.

That said, he's told me about other artists beforehand in years past and he's been on the mark. Around this time last year, he mentioned that Radiohead, At the Drive-In, Refused, and Pulp were playing this years Coachella.

Well, flame away.

What's your friends name?

[microcuts]

What's your friends name?

Probably Capitol.

[kneuller]

Yeahhhhhhh as sad as it sounds that could easily happen. Deadmau5 after a real headliner and DP closing the fest? lol oy vey

DP closing the fest would be better than Young Money and Friends or whatever other rap combo GV can throw together.....besides Outkast

[high5sareawesome]

What's your friends name?

Sorry, I can't say. I don't want to burn any bridges.

[loubque]

I'm just happy Pulp won't be back. Might have been the most boring set I've watched in my 12 years of attendance.

this came off so inauthentic. Try again buddy. I dont know how that was boring... or you really havent gone to coachella for 12 years because i can name other shit far more boring.

Its so cool to be the antagonist aint it...FAILURE.

[GuyInTucson]

I am not even a fan of Pulp but I enjoyed their set and I didn't consider it boring at all.

Concurred. And I lived the misty rain that started falling during Common People.

[suprefan]

Probably Capitol.

Exactly

[high5sareawesome]

Probably Capitol.

Haha. Well played. Well, "Capitol" gave me some more info today. Not saying that they are playing but, GV sent out offers to the Stone Roses, and Jawbreaker, apparently. Personally, out of the two, I think the Stone Roses are more likely to say yes than Jawbreaker. But, I guess we'll find out for sure at the end of the year.

I lived it too. I also loved it, for that matter. But I missed Pulp.

God I hope they nab Stone Roses. That's the best band I could hope for this cycle.

[high5sareawesome]

I hope so too.

[Miroir Noir]

Hey Bumblebee, on a scale of 1 to 1,000, how likely does this make a Led Zeppelin reunion at Coachella?

At one point, guitarist Jimmy Page mentioned that the reunion concert was five years ago and that if there was a chance they were reuniting, you would have heard.
"Seems pretty unlikely, doesn't it?" Page said.

Is this a "soft" denial that is secretly a confirmation?

[Miroir Noir]

Potentially good sign:

The Stone Roses are confirmed to play at Australia's Future Music Festival in March 2013. More info here...http://www.thestoneroses.org/

[concertgoer]

Blur and Stone Roses would be great
I am so down with another Britchella next year

[mrhand]

God I hope they nab Stone Roses. That's the best band I could hope for this cycle.

I think blur is co-headliner or 2nd billing...shits getting exciting with all these reunion and tour announcements

I can't wait for Coachella 2013, or as it's otherwise known, Glastonbury 1995.

[amyzzz]

I'll believe it when I see it.
