coachella 2008 poster

[Alchemy]

What about Blur? They should be here since they're reuniting next month.

Well, 1, because this poster isn't real.

2, because we don't know that yet.

[daftmonkey64]

all i know is if its fake. Its a fuckin amazing fake.

[captncrzy]

Yeah I can't believe the hoaxer forgot to put Blur on there.

[xleslie]

here's what i could make out of the "poster"

friday:
bowie
chemical brothers
queens of the stone age
goldfrapp
the verve
basement jaxx

saturday:
radiohead
broken social scene
armin van buuren
aphex twin
ATB (?)
the faint

sunday:
my bloody valentine
royksopp


..doubt it's legit though..

[Alchemy]

Well I wouldn't mind David Bowie - Radiohead - My Bloody Valentine. Oh well...

[suprefan]

Or Boards of Canada, Armin Van Buren that high as a Sahara headliner is a huge joke. And Underworld, where is Underworld? Also props tochanging the color of the 2003 poster to a dark blue instead of purple, other than that you got it all wrong. Although I love how much work was put into this to try and just make us freak out, which cannot be done since we(board members who made their own fake poster) fooled the rest of the world with the 2006 fake line up already.



Edit: The Mars Volta is on Saturday. Also Muse is on Saturday which is above TMV

[daftmonkey64]

the KNIFE (to the left of aphex twin saturday) would be mind blowing in the sahara

[ficklecycle]

Do I see Common?

[suprefan]

Which line what day?


Oh this is to fake poster person, good job on probably taking a few hours to get the correct blur to make us work insanly hard on figuring s**t out. I DARE YOU TO POST A CLEAR PICTURE OF WHAT YOU WANTED EVERYONE TO FREAK OUT ABOUT.

[xleslie]

i thought i saw Common too...Saturday under broken social scene, but i wasn't sure

[Alchemy]

Common is 2nd line Saturday. Would be cool.

[ficklecycle]

Common is dope. New album, makes sense.

[RotationSlimWang]

Supre dares you. Make it a double dog dare, burrito, that'll fucking learn 'em to bust your tomatah.

WAY different from the '03 poster. Look at the mountain range, the moon, the grass. Unless this person photoshopped the fuck of it, which yeah it probably was.

[babbaloo118]

you people are mean. i dunno how nasty it gets but i stopped reading after that person said the f word. i try and be nice and take like 15 mins signing up for this site and that happens wow. but i'm sleeping over at her house tomorrow soo i think i'll try and take another picture or something. or i'll take a lot since you people are crazy. i dont like people calling me a liar sooo stop it please and thank you. good night.

[Alchemy]

Had I released this prank, I would have at LEAST waited to post it in December.

[summerkid]

haha fun stuff is that Muse on saturday right before BSS?

[summerkid]

Had I released this prank, I would have at LEAST waited to post it in December.

I was thinking that man if this person would have waited until January or late December she would have had us really worked into a frenzy.

[Alchemy]

Now that I look at the other posters and this psuedo-poster. Yeah... That is some great photoshop work on the poster. It almost makes me want to believe that its true.

Trust me, you are reading every response and hoping somebody believes it, also hoping somebody leaks this to NME so they go crazy and make the front page of any online music site. thats what you are hoping, its not working. And did you really honestly, genuinely think that we would think this is true? Like I said, post a clear photo, you have one since this is all of your doing. Have some balls and accept that you didn;t get what you wanted out of us.(if you even have balls that is.)

WAY different from the '03 poster. Look at the mountain range, the moon, the grass. Unless this person photoshopped the fuck of it, which yeah it probably was.

Its modeled after the 2003 one hows that? It was very photoshopped from the begining and you know it. I wonder how many layers were made for this.





Edit: I think this is somebody from the board as an alias, there is somebody on here who I know uses tinypic as their url link to post photos. I just cant remember who though. Erik, IP trace please?

[shakermaker113]

it looks very convincing, and I like the poster design. I'd be a little upset if the lineup leaked this early on though. it'd be like, as a kid knowing what I was getting for christmas ahead of time would've spoiled it so.

and if this is real, babbaloo's friend is in some shit.

also, I am entertained by the way that the history of fakes has caused instant disbelief. even if this were real none of us would believe it.

[suprefan]

Not at this point, and no way is a lineup finalized this early in its entirety. If it were, GV has an insane amount of pull to have every band have to plan a tour or just their schedules around that weekend 9 months in advance. So where is the stagecoach line up? See, that prank could be pulled on that board and all of them would believe it, it would be all over the country music blogs and sites in an instant.

[woogie846]

I see Aesop Rock and the Black Lips on Sunday.

[KenMixtape]

Why would they actually design a poster 8 months in advance, if they're not going to release it for 5 months?
It's not like it's the most important part of the festival. Do you really think they'd base the lineup on how many bands they can fit on a line?
I understand wishfull thinking but anyone who thinks that's real needs their head examined.

[shakermaker113]

yeah it does seem far too soon. I recall when they announced the dates last year -- late november -- the organizers were quoted as saying they had about 2/3 of the acts booked. so this is far too soon.

it could be a draft. bands they're trying/hoping to get. those lists must exist. but why would they make a poster for a draft?

[C DUB YA]

is that the Verve under Bowie? bullshit

they are back together - even though this "poster" is bogus beyond belief.

[suprefan]

Crystal Castles 3rd line Saturday.

[ficklecycle]

Crystal Castles 3rd line Saturday.

Makes sense.

[captncrzy]

I agree, it's an alias. "F word"? Come fucking on.
