Predict The 2014 Headliners A Year In Advance

[zfireswitch]

eminem would headline. outkast would headline. there is not a chance in hell that lil wayne would headline. you can't use record sales/radio play/existing mainstream fanbase as a basis for whether or not someone would headline coachella.

Sure you can.

[igotmyxomatosis]

so if that daft punk album actually comes out in the next few months theyre basically headlining everything in the world are they not

[TickleMeElmo]

Daft Punk
NIN or Tool (not both)
Outkast

[EastLos01]

Had to change shit up

The Police
White Stripes
Garth Brooks(first 3 weekend headliner)

[Zafocaine]

Lenny Kravitz. Yay or nay?

[MotorAve]

one of the dudes from black sabbath says something pretty different.

All he knows is that Wilk has other commitments, he's merely speculating what for. Wilk is the drummer for Sound City Players. Not that they're going to tour, most likely (a series of one-offs, instead), but the guy does work on other projects.

I could ask about Rage, but it would be bad form.

[MotorAve]

Yeah he hinted at NIN doing more live shows in his AMA on reddit bro.

You mean, the reddit that happened several weeks after the lineup pool? Not that anyone putting NIN instead of HTDA in this year's pool had any sort of clue. *cough* monklish *cough*

[MotorAve]

Arcade Fire or Mumford & Sons - whichever is on tour; if neither, then maybe the Strokes
Daft Punk, unless they headline a new GV EDM Festival; alternatively, something hip-hoppy, perhaps involving the surviving Beastie Boys
Pearl Jam, unless they do their own PJ20-type event; alternatively, Foo Fighters? Muse?

Subs: The National, MGMT, QOTSA, Foster the People, Florence and the Machine, Slowdive, big American indie-rock reunion

and Culture Club, if George gets his visa

[stephen22]

Lenny Kravitz. Yay or nay?

I have actually been waiting for one of the big 3 festivals to book Lenny. He wouldn't headline, but it would be cool to see him as a subheadliner. I'd say he is more of a Lolla or maybe Bonnaroo act than Coachella.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

MBV and Atoms For Peace
Daft Punk
Rolling Stones

[HotHamWater]

Paul McCartney
The Killers
The Cure

[Reeber]

I hope Daft Punk never plays Coachella again. I'd rather just see them somewhere else at this point so fools, bros, douchebags who are only getting tickets to Coachella to go see Daft Punk sell them to people who are actually fun to hang out with at the fest.

[nake13]

Jack Johnson
The Black Keys
and... The Red Hot Chilli Peppers (feat. a John Frusciante hologram)

[Zafocaine]

Paul McCartney
The Killers
The Cure

Paul and The Cure killed it respectively, especially for how fucking old they are. Didn't even check out the Killers. Aimlessly walking the fields at night is better than certain headliners we won't name at the moment...

[Jackalope11]

I'd say

Justin Timberlake
Death Cab For Cutie (a stretch, I know, but it could happen)
Nine Inch Nails

[Hier_Proctor]

2014
Deadmau5 - The National
My Bloody Valentine
Eminem

2015
Mumford & Sons
Frank Ocean
Jack White

2016
Animal Collective
Crystal Castles
OutKast

2017
My Morning Jacket
Bon Iver - Skrillex
The Throne

2018
Passion Pit
Fiona Apple
LCD Soundsystem - Arcade Fire

[menikmati]

I'd say

Justin Timberlake
Death Cab For Cutie (a stretch, I know, but it could happen)
Nine Inch Nails

Remind me that if you ever start booking Coachella, I'll stop attending.

[weeklymix]

The Smiths
Outkast
The White Stripes

[PJandBompton]

If you have to ask why I think No Doubt would headline, then you clearly haven't seen them live. It's a wall of high energy hits. Much unlike this years headliners. Lil Wayne is the biggest name in hip hop that HASN'T headlined Coachella yet, hands down. Do you have true counterpoints, or are you just bitching again? You people...

you're right, let's forget about Outkast, Eminem (who will never play Chella), even fucking Drake is bigger than Lil' Wayne now (but will also never play Chella)

[Zafocaine]

Lil Wayne will play "Chella"

Bonnaroo's ticket sales suffered last year because of his act in 2011, and people still gripe about it on their comment sections. I doubt he's headlining Coachella anytime soon.

Outkast are the Daft Punk of Coachella hip hop dream headliners. Eminem came out as a lesser guest of Dre's last year. Drake is the only one even in the running with Lil Wayne, but not close. According to message board legend, the festival will sell out regardless of headliners. Otherwise moving your Roo argument into the shitter quickly. No one important cares about Roo anyway. Proven fact. Now hose down the driveway 'for your dad gets home. You know how he gets after a long day at the plant.

nice ad hominem there, bruh. But if you need more convincing, Wayne has already made clear that he's going on hiatus to focus on philanthropy and skateboarding.

Buy my drugs instead, and you've got a deal. Both weekends, or you're a sore loser.
