You have all been very bad children in 2012.

ok but bowie's still in the runnin then ya

re: Outkast, DM, Stones, I'm just passing along definitive out of the running acts that I've heard. Haven't got a definitive no regarding Bowie or DP, haven't really asked. If DP is on the bill, i WANT it to be a surprise. I wouldn't get your hopes up for either though.

If Goldenvoice told KROQ it was soon and started everybody going off, and mmblack is right that they are still on hold for some acts, this is fucking ridiculous.

It stands to reason that they're on hold for something that makes it worth the wait, which is likely a top 2-3 line act. If it was something inconsequential they'd just release it and do a late add later. It's been said they just release it as soon as it's ready (which can be evidenced by the fact there's always spelling mistakes and changes to be made later to it) so they must be waiting for something of significance (unlike most of our lives).

PH and this dude bringing their sick beats to the Sahara in April. You heard it here first.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

If it's on hold, that's fine. Do what you have to do, I get it. At this point, however, post a "next week" or something thing so people aren't hanging on to every word, and don't alert radio stations that it's coming "soon". If you dropped the ball, or can't finish negotiations in time, then give people some indication that it's still going to be a bit.

But if not Bowie or Daft, who else could possibly worth this embarrassment? (serious question)

[nikehair]

Uh oh, just off the wire:

So you're saying I should sell my ticket.

[xuclarockerx]

maybe some KROQ boss is holding GV hostage until they put his kid's band on the bill

[est1985]

Apparently Dogblood. They're a tough act to get, bro. The $250,000 is going to go towards blowing themselves up at the stroke of midnight.

Epic.

ive been trying to think of this but i dunno either...

edit: unless its something like trying to get Trent to bring NIN together early for a one off before an actual tour...or any other similar situation.

[PulpOne]

[mikebspeedracer]

all the clues are laid out on the kroq main page, we get
headliners
Muse
the Black Keys
Jack White
with sound city players and paramore as subs

I would be okay with this out of respect to both Sigur Ros and Blur. I'd rather see Blur have a full headlining set and not a 55 minute 2nd best slot. Sigur Ros' upcoming live tour is supposed to expand into a bigger live show, and plus, when they played in '06, their set was over after four songs because their songs are on the longer side, so more time = better experience.

In their defense they don't play any dubstep. It's all more Boys Noize-y, Gesaffelstein-y, future techno shit and updated edits and 2012 ripoffs of old juke records. Not sure if that will make you hate it more or less though.

I saw Skrillex DJ an amazing old school techno set at an abandoned church, and Boys Noize has +15,000 vinyl records he's been collecting for close to two decades. The dudes both actually have great and diverse taste in music, and I'm sure would run circles around half of these self-important so-called dance music aficionados in here clamoring for Underworld, Aphex Twin, and Faithless every year. Just sayin'.
