White Stripes?

[skavenbrew]

Demos, a dj on the alt nation channel on Sirius radio, just said that White Stripes are playing Coachella.... anyone heard anything about this, or is Demos back on the crackpipe?

[TESTIFYTHIS]

I hope its for real

that would be incredible

[Genedefekt]

He must have meant Bonnaroo?

[menikmati]

ya bonnaroooo

[RaiseYourFist]

That would be amazing... I have always wanted to see the white stripes in concert

[skavenbrew]

I think you're right, he meant Bonnaroo. I'm going to have to send him hate mail for getting my hopes up like that, even for a few minutes.....

[rivetbutt]

white stripes drove me nuts live.. it was like a Clash show. they play everything 30% faster and it all meshed together.

i love the band, but ill pass live

Maybe he did say Coachella, who knows. Hopefully he did. I mean, 'Bonnaroo' and 'Coachella' don't sound like each other at all.

really? i've seen them live many times, and have always pleased.

that would make my freakin festival!!!

[summerkid]

that would make my freakin festival!!!

mine too, but I dont see them fitting in anywhere. Can't see them playing before Bjork, could see them play before red hot chili peppers, but that would bump arcade fire down to a pre-sunset time because Tiesto is closing out the stage and I dont see that happening. Can't really see them playing before Rage either.

Guess what. The White Stripes are not going to announce playing some third tier stage at Coachella two weeks after announcing they're headlining Bonnaroo.

[summerkid]

they aren't headlining bonnaroo...Tool, Widespread Panic, and the Police are.

Coachella 2003

This could be kind of nuts: Say this rumor is true and the White Stripes kick serious jams at Coachella 2007...wouldn't it be hard not to go to Stagecoach if they could pair Mr White and Loretta Lynn for a rare live performance of Van Lear Rose? i would at least have to go for that day if they could pull that off.

[ghettojournalist]

the loretta set with mr. white would be amazing.

[paulb]

White Stripes are totally awesome live! saw them in 05. I really really hope they are added to Coachella, cause other than Tool, White Stripes for me would be the only reason to go to Bonnaroo

[ArcadeParade]

Would be one of my top 3 wishes for this years show

Your best bet of seeing this pairing is definantly Bonnaroo. White Stripes will not be at Coachella. Loretta Lynn lives close to Bonnaroo, so there's probably a good chance this could happen there. I'm going, and praying to the country music gods to bring Mrs. Lynn out to perform Van Lear Rose at the Roo.

I agree. On top of the talent already there, the white stripes could really move an audience.
