2013 Lineup Confirmation/Rumors Thread

[suprefan]

Morrissey solo isn't worth Coachella going Vegan for at least one day. GV do lose money in lost concession sales.



The cancelled moz date at Staples was November 24th which traditionally rules him out of the festival. 4.5 months before Coachella/6 weeks before lineup announcement.



You take his interview quotes seriously? I think the retirement quote was later retracted.



I've seen the Stones a couple times and think their guarantee would be better spent elsewhere, I do have optimism for the guests they could bring along and will watch the entire set.

Alt J just played here 2 days ago, thats a month before line up announcement, explain how thats not "traditional" . All i was pointing out was that there probably isnt anything being held against a reschedule like this. Its a huge rarity so i dont think its such a huge deal. So youre going to rule an artist out that had to reschedule due to their mothers health? Thats some cold shit right there. "Your mom cant get sick at all or you cant play this festival." Im sure that would go over nicely.

I know someone that knows someone that said Cafe Tacvba is confirmed.

I know most don't care so fuck you in advance.

I care. This will be great if it's true.

FUCK YES. I know this isn't the Stones on top of their game like in the 60s and 70s but this band changed my life more than any other musician(s) ever has. Its gonna be a dream come true seeing them on the polo fields

With how quickly both weekends are sure to sell out, am I the only one who thinks that the radius clause might not really be enforced the way it used to be?

[heart cooks brain]

i bet they use it as a bargaining chip.

play this gv venue and we'll waive the radius etc

[amyzzz]

When did Morrissey retract his retirement statement?

I agree. I suspect there is still one in effect for those bigger name 'gets', but for these smaller acts, I don't think they care.

Every time I enter this thread I always believe for a split second that Diiv is Daft Punk.

I think you should go fuck yourself

Before I get to the self-fucking, I'll click back a few pages to make sure no one has already asked me to do this.

Miroir Noir: He's a good man. And thorough.

We all think the same thing about you.

guys, it's not nick's fault. he works for insomniac, and being exposed to that much awful music for any length of time is bound to have a detrimental effect.

The OLD Morrissey date would have been 6 weeks or so before the lineup announcement. Playing his first(?) US arena show in 20 years.

Is Alt. J a "MAJOR" act?

[gswhooper]

Yup. Especially since presale soldout in less than 6 hours.

I was scared of the lineup to being shitty, with Muse/RHCP/Killers headling. But kinda surprised with the Rolling Stones post today.
Which made me think about it even more. Technically all they could do is get 3 big name headliners and put shit in the lower half of each day and still sell the fest out with ease.

More people went for Radiohead and (or) Snoop/Dre last year vs the entire undercard.

CHINGÓN!!!

Is masterbation considered fucking oneself? If so, I fail to see how this is a valid insult.

[MotorAve]

Stones just got paid $25+ mil for four or five shows. Coachella generally pays headliners $2 mil. Why would they triple that when they have no trouble selling out the fest nearly on brand alone or signing acts at the going rate that are more popular with the kids who actually go to the festival? There's no way it would be an exclusive either, because there's no way the Stones would give up the opportunity/responsibility to serve their large near-geriatric audience who are not going to stand in the Polo Field for hours, but would easily sell 3 nights at Staples at higher average ticket prices.

Never mind the very large question of whether the Stones would do it in the first place.

Never mind that I've effectively been told they aren't playing on both the Coachella end and the Stones end.

Fri _ Mumford and Sons
Sat _Yeah Yeah Yeahs (Lady Gaga will be on a stage Saturday as well)
Sun _Rolling Stones

Yes Mumford and Sons is going to headline Coachella the night after playing a gig in Norway.

Update:

As fans on Twitter noted (see below) the band's mobile app updated this morning to reveal a pair of heretofore unannounced dates: December 27 in Huntington, New York at the Cinema Arts Centre, and April 12 in Indio, California at what else but "Coachella 2013." . . . As it turns out, the CAC event is a real thing: another freaking documentary dubbed The Rolling Stones: The Ron Wood Years will be screening on that date, though there's no mention on the theater's site of an in-the-flesh appearance from the spring-heeled Jagger or any other members.

"Update"

[gswhooper]

So someone hacked their app and added Coachella to troll the shit out of everyone?

[suprefan]

[GuyInTucson]

Ok, so The Rolling Stones on Friday night? Makes me curious as to who GV got to close.

[Miroir Noir]

RAP HEADLINER

So someone hacked their app and added Coachella to troll the shit out of everyone?

My own guess would be the songkick listing was used by the app to create a listing. Wouldnt it have data collecting abilities to do such things?


I love that motor ave is just enjoying fucking with everyone more than nation ocean for once.

RAP HEADLINER

A potential rap headliner is in place to substitute for The Rolling Stones when something happens and they ultimately drop out before the lineup is released.

A big band like the Stones headlining Friday make only one act possible for Sunday...
