Predictions for line-up announcement date?

[Egull]

No one expects it before the 7th as GV have to give their fanbase time to recover from new years. Plus the onsale date should still be in january and that will be 3-4 days after the announcement.

That's how I got 20 instead of 31.

But if you want guess January 1st as the announcement, go nuts.

Haha ya, I probably need about a week after New Year's to recover in order to see a festival lineup...that makes sense.

[M Sparks]

So usually they announce the initial line-up in mid-late December

Has this ever happened even once?

Of course, fuckwit season seems to have started a month or 2 early this year, so...

January 22nd

Not before the 14th, in any event.

[gswhooper]

Why is that?

[concertgoer]

Because of RHCP, Muse and The Killers of course.

^this says the median date since '05 has been 22.625, which would mean January 22nd at exactly 3 PM. So, that's my guess.

That's a poor method of estimating considering it doesn't take into the fact that the lineup release date has been declining; I'm sure it'll be released before the 22nd. My guess is before Thursday.

it would likely happen Sun-Tues because tickets would go onsale that upcoming Friday.

Has it ever NOT been released on a Tuesday? Aside from last year when it leaked early so they had to go ahead and release it?

why don't you check the link and get back to us

[concertgoer]

It didn't leak early last year. They put it on their Facebook page at 4:00 PM.

Where was it leaked?

[fibes]

here is something i said last week.

past lineup release dates:

2010 = Tues Jan 19th - third Tuesday of the month
2011 = Tues Jan 18th - third Tuesday of the month
2012 = Monday Jan 9th - second Monday of the month (thanks concertgoer)

2013 = Tues Jan 8th - Second Tuesday of the month <- First 'tease' video would have been posted today if so, right?
2013 = Tues Jan 15th - Third Tuesday of the month

so this year will be the 15th and videos will start Wednesday the 9th maybe?

though the tease videos were maybe just a one and done thing. I'm looking towards a 22nd announcement at this point.

eh, good enough guess. if nothing is posted by tomorrow, then i'm guessing it's not gonna go onsale until the 25th.
why? no reason.

[alpha_q_up]

maybe its a long shot, but Gogol Bordello posted that they will announce their first US festival appearance tomorrow.....

Not coachella. Probably New Orleans jazz fest because they announced their lineup is coming out tomorrow.

[Grant]

not sure but is new orleans jazz fest affiliated with goldenvoice somehow?

Goldenvoice is owned by AEG, which helps finance and provides some booking advice to jazz fest.

[mjake07]

I'm betting either this Friday to get some long weekend buzz before ticket sale.....or the Tues after MLK day...because really....they've proved they don't need buzz to sell out.

[nuclearstevem]

They will announce the Line-Up right after Bowie officially tells them "NO" yet again and they concede and put out their slightly watered down version.

[JayXMonsta]

I got a good vibe for next thursday!
