Things i am already looking forward to in 2011....Coachella, Good Vibrations, relaunching my label with a load of my new tracks....

[betao]

Awesome.

[GeezrRckr]

this is for Cartman.

this is for Cartman.

Ha, their trombone player is hilarious. I am praying for a late night Gobi spot.

I'm also hoping that article isn't bullshit, because everything I have heard as of late from their management sounds like they still aren't sure they can make it out to the states this year...

[bmack86]

I really hope they play. One of my college roommates was huge on those guys and when I was in New Zealand they were pretty much the best band on the radio.

I'm also kinda excited about Glassjaw. I haven't seen them in about 8 years.

For what it is worth, page one of this thread is the most resourceful compilation of rumors on the Internet.

concurred.

[bobchella]

Consider adding Green Velvet to rumored. After speaking with him and judging his reaction there was little doubt in my mind that he'll be there

[unknown]

Green Velvet would be fun. uhhh care to elaborate on what was said or should we just take your word
for it?

edit: I did see he is scheduled to play Voyeur in SD 5/28 but that is quite a gap.

[bobchella]

From the bottom of the thread's 2nd to last page

I ran into Green Velvet after his set last night at The Rave in Milwaukee. He was extremely nice and gracious and I asked if he would be playing Coachella this year and after a thoughtful pause and a smile he said something along the lines of "You never know...".

[magmazing]

I'm still hoping for Garbage to be there for a "reunion" band... Not gonna happen, but I gotta see them when they eventually tour this year.

For an artist like Green Velvet who is from the states I would say that date doesn't have any effect on Coachella, I still think he has a great shot at being there.

Have you ever seen the legendary HEADSTRUCK perform? He practically put the midwest rave scene on the map.

[bobchella]

Amonly.com shows Green Velvet is playing Cabo San Lucas, Mexico on April 10.

The band they are opening for on many of those dates needs to be there, already

[TickleMeElmo]

You mean Small Black, right?

Unfortunately both bands tour dates with them end around March.

You must have good instincts...'08 was my favorite Coachella experience by far, albeit also my first.

'08,'09,'10 alum

[HandBanana]

I love 08. And Im sure ill love 11.
But I hope for a year that isnt mobbed like last year.

[Leeartlee]

Last year was because mistakes were made. I have faith those mistakes will be corrected.

[concertgoer]

Excited to see Cults

[rasooli]

already posted a couple of posts back.

[TickleMeElmo]

Wire's tour dates have been posted already too but you might as well post that also just to be on the safe side.
