2013 Lineup Confirmation/Rumors Thread

[malcolmjamalawesome]

The Stones said publicly that they were in talks and that it came down to money?

[concertgoer]

How is everyone doing this morning?

Primavera went under the 12th hour until its lineup drops. What will it hold?

Vigo won the fitness contest. I hope he didn't burn his carpet dropping that J

Daft Punk obviously....

[Rolwolf]

I'm still not sold that Friday is a sure bet for "weak headliner day."

Me neither. McCartney and JayZ played Fridays not too long ago.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

this gets said once every 2.5 pages. it's getting old.

And it has yet to start getting funny.

[cowboydan]

Another day.....

Here is an interesting fact: Human thigh bones are stronger than concrete

In tension I assume? Because it'd be hard to believe for compression...

No. This is being pulled from thin air.

BREAKING: CLOSING THE SAHARA ON SATURDAY!!

[malcolmjamalawesome]

No. This is being pulled from thin air.

It could be that travelfan doesn't know what words mean.

[travelfan]

I hadn't noticed this particular ridiculing (or considered this explanation), but it makes a ton of sense. Let's hope it's Primavera and the line-up drops in 9 hours 20 minutes.

Much less than that homie, that's Barcelona time, it'd be like 10:00 in the morning in California.

The Stones have said publicly that they were in some form of talks, and that ultimately the discussion came down to money.

This is not a true statement.

edit: let me rephrase. I don't believe this is a true statement. I have read quotes from Jagger saying Coachella was too early in the year, and that they had no talks with GV. If I am wrong, please point me to a credible source that shows the Stones saying this.

[minivanonfire]

Me neither. McCartney and JayZ played Fridays not too long ago.

McCartney and Jay Z didn't had any "huge" EDM star closing main stage on friday night, just sayin

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

The coachella announcement will be that it's taking place in Barcelona.

So much for Friday being the weak headliner day. We're shit are figuring out the formulas.

[gam3g3ni3]

I believe the entire Stones-not-playing thing is a lie and a coverup and they will be on that poster.

The worst part is the fake "source" close to the band that somehow turned into Mick Jagger quoted something to the effect of "Coachella is in April? That's too early, we won't be ready."

Really? You just rehearsed for months and performed 2 shows in December and you won't be ready to perform 2 shows in April, five months later?

Not buying it.

[captncrzy]

Guess what? You should.

[shoegazer76]

I would definitely check out dubird's set.

I'm wearing all black today in honor of yesterday's lineup.

EDM has also grown expansively in the 3 years since Jay-Z

[malcolmjamalawesome]

You oafs. Stop and think about what you're saying. Who would be benefitted by The Stones lying about if they were playing, particularly under the guide of "not having enough time to prepare?"

[travelfan]

Hah! No, you're right, I'm wrong. I've seen so many Rolling Stones articles that I'm mixing up the sources. The article that stated they were in talks and it came down to money was from a "source" in CoS, far from credible. So that only makes the "Rolling Stones are out, and they are scrambling to fill a headliner slot" theory even more ridiculous.

This is what I was remembering, but I had attributed it in my head to a direct statement from Mick or somebody:

AC/DC REUNION

[Electrotek]

interesting you mention 18-19 year olds. drum and bass is for that age range and younger. it sounds just about as silly as dubstep.

well done!

Yeah, if it was the late 90s/early 2000s. When's the last time you ever been to a dnb gig?

You two. Explain the relevance of the above comments to the discussion of Friday's status as "weak headliner night"

[weeklymix]

phoenix is such a fucking obvious friday headliner. as far as im concerned the only question is whether or not they stick someone on the headline with them

Just like Paul McCartney, right?

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Not to mention how irrelevant which night an act performs on has become once single day tickets ceased to be sold.

[anonimouse]

the Jackson 4

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

Unless of course said act causes negative backlash....

[igotmyxomatosis]

Just like Paul McCartney, right?

ok, saturday. sunday. whatever. i dont care about the day, but phoenix will be at the top one day

[obzen]

Glad to know I didn't miss anything...
