Adds are coming
I will continue to update this blog when information about possible additions becomes available. More names are coming over the rest of January and February. When I hear anything, I will let you all know.
Ok, I'll be the one to say it...in light of the recent show for Haiti relief...what about a Radiohead add Monk? Also, I love the idea of Beck playing with Charlotte Gainsbourg...it is one of the reasons why I will not miss her set.
the adds are gonna be to Fri. & Sun. btw...Saturday already has like 5 or so more acts than Fri. & Sun. give me some Basement Jaxx in the Sahara Tent on Friday yo!!!
The sound curfew's a laugh. Prince played till 1am in '08. $1000/minute fine is peanuts to them. Think about how much money they pay the headliners. If they go over by an hour, that's $60k. Hardly a drop in the bucket.
they usually even out the acts so that there's a similar amount on each day...you gotta look at the #'s, guys. Sat. has too many acts already, adds will be to Fri. & Sun. only.
Basement Jaxx, Massive Attack, Royksopp, Beasties...one of the adds has gotta be at least one out of those 4.
The news that Chapterhouse is going to tour in America should have Goldenvoice on the phone making Coachella the first stop. While this wouldn't be a major add to most, for some it would be a special highlight. And while we're at it, since Suede is playing in March in London, why waste all of that practice on one show--Get them on the phone!!! Both of these would be sooooo Coachella!!!
Dizzee Rascal would be perfect for Coacheezie & would absolutely murder the Sahara Tent...haven't looked at his touring schedule but I'd be shocked if he was not at least contacted by GV.
Bonarroo got the lips playing Dark side on Thursday night. Could Coachella be adding a big name Thursday night performer for campers only? That would be sic. It would also help their cause and help get campers in earlier!!!
^^^ YES !!! I seen that roo got FL too , and was wishing for Coachella to get them also . Campers exclusive set would be SICK !!! Whats the word Monklish ???
I would love Soundgarden be the reunion. They would be a perfect add for Sat. I know u said at one point that they would be there. Is that ur opinion still Monk?
@anon1120 There will likely be some bands or djs for campers. They will not be a huge headliner name, but more like a smaller act that wanted to make two thousand dollars.
@anon1055 Nothing specific. If he's there, I guess he would guest with Charlotte.
@anon913 Pure Filth is doing one of the nights again, so there should be another dubstep type night with Kode 9 type djs.
@anon1053 I would not expect Suede to do a reunion for Coachella. Their show is supposed to be a one and done for charity. I does not seem likely that they would do a obviously for profit show just a month later in the USA.
@Jason probably. Not sure if they will be better but there should be some more names later.
There was a "wait for it" post in the poster changes thread on the Coachella message boards which has triggered a feeling that adds will be coming very shortly. I'm not exactly sure why though.
Looks like The Arctic Monkeys could be headed for Coachella. Their last date of the tour is the 15th of April in Arizona. That addition would be great news.
Is this it? How strong is the chance that the Arctic Monkeys will show up on the poster? Are there any real surprises still to come? Still holding out hope for major add. However, Bad Lieutenant is a great add. The only chance to hear Joy Division and New Order songs, which they play in their set. Street Sweeper is boring.
monkers. Just leave Y or N for each if any of these ring true as "possibilities", please !!! Arctic Monkeys The Antlers The Dodos The Hood Internet Neon Indian The National The Walkmen
oh and you could always just put up a ? iffin you just don't know anything about it. and what happened to Vieux Farfe...or that band that you had for the very first rumor? Are they still in it?
After looking at Bonnaroos initial lineup, Ive gotta say, Coachella punked those bitches. Their lineup other than stevie wonder is lackluster at best. Chromeo with Hall is the only other group of interest.
Enough of the hyperbole, sheesh. Bonnaroo looks worse than Coachella, but there are plenty of acts I'd be excited about on the list. It's still one of the top two American festivals at this point.
Bonnaroo is a joke! Who cares about this line-up? Chromeo and The National are the only ones I would like to see added to Coachella, but who cares anyway? Coachella is clearly the best line-up top to bottom, and when they add Arctic Monkeys game, set, and match. Lollapalooza will, as usual, be poor. Who cares about Wonder, Garfunkel, Matthews, Canadian Rag whatever, Kings of Leo....You get the point.
what's the rule with bands coming back to california a month later? i.e. If the National comes back to california in may they probably won't be at coachella? but their schedule doesn't start until the 22cnd of april...a small hope maybe. The Tallest Man On Earth just tours right on through, that sucks, cuz he is AMAZING live. That was kind of a downer message wasn't it? Any chance for The Felice Brothers !!! Arctic Monkeys The Antlers The Dodos The Walkmen ???
Monk, The least you could do is let us know what you are hearing. Many of us check your blog on a daily basis, and have trusted your information. At least address some of the heavy rumors, and the questions. In that case: Arctic Monkeys? Coachella? Any serious surprises Coachella? Warpaint Coachella?
@anon1227 Busy work week. No news other than other festivals announcing their lineups. Of your list, At the Drive In could be most likely (but not very likely). The last two will not be there, definitely.
@anon1213 I believe this counts.
@anon748 Looks like they are taking more time off than they originally thought they would. Their first show back will likely be Lollapalooza.
Based on their headlining at Sasquatch I would assume that Coachella did not want to pay so much for Massive Attack this year.
Monklish, Greg Kot (Chicago Tribune) has said that Arcade Fire and The Strokes are in talks to play Lolla - are you sure about Arcade Fire not being at LOlla?
monklish- the arctic monkeys just posted a show in vegas on april 16th... bands often play vegas if theyre playing coachella that weekend.. would you say this is good evidence of them being added to the lineup?
Monklish already said no Arcade Fire at Lolla. Just because they were in talks doesn't mean they are going to play. Bowie gets asked to play Coachella every year, and those "talks" didn't yield shit. Imagine they said "thanks but no thanks" just like with every other festival this year, those fuckers.
Woods The Very Best Neon Indian The National, DOOM, Arctic Monkeys, The Smith Westerns, Best Coast, Janelle Monae, Ted Leo & the Pharmacists, Joanna Newsom, and Vetiver are possibilities?
Arcade Fire, Wilco, The Pixies, At the Drive In, and Mission of Burma are far off possibilities?
Broken Social Scene is playing San Fransisco on May 1st. Ant they'll be at SXSW, they're new album comes out May 4th. They could be an add, couldn't they?
So, we are on the last week of February and no real news from Monk or anyone reliable. Are we going to get some nice adds Monk? If so, I guess it is taking longer than what you expected.
We know this: Beasties - Doubt it, More time off Stones - Doubt it Soundgarden - Doubt it Massive Attack - Not for less than headlining money Bowie - Always a possibility, never a chance Underworld - Possibly Maybe Eagles - Gawd I hope not! But Mayyyyyybe At The Drive In - Mayyyyyyybe Sade - Mayyyyyyybe Arctic Monkeys - Mayyyyyybe Basement Jaxx - Good Chance Bonobo - Good Chance
Imogen Heap? This is the add? What?? ARCTIC MONKEYS are right next door that friday...what are they waiting for??? I would think this should have been an add by this time.
Be patient for the adds. Last year Chemical Brothers, Orb, Plump DJs, and others weren't announced till March 9th-ish. (Course, Amy Drunkhouse had dropped out...)
And be prepared for nothing too big. Tickets are selling great, and I read they might be sold out by late March.
i will take the ZERO chance back. You're right, if they add another huge name, maybe.
Just remember that Jay cant sell out the hollywood bowl. Muse has already toured with U2 and continues to tour the country and world. and Gorillaz is the only thing unique about the headliners. As much as i love the undercard, if you think that's what gets a sellout, you're stupid. If you think there are 60,000 people willing to shell out $300 for tickets alone, wake up. I guess you dont read the headlines. Over 10% unemployment. Wake up.
and, this being my 7th year, i'll tell you i like the 3 day pass only option.
It's not a surprise people. even last year, 80% of all tickets sold were 3-day passes. If you're complaining about the lack of 1-day tix...sorry, but Golden Voice and Coachella aren't your target demographic. Finish college (I either bought one-day passes or didn't go at all while getting my education on), get a good job, and make enough money to not complain.
come down from your ivory tower. i make more than enough money to go to coachella 3 days every year for 7 years. My point is that even though you and i may be able to afford it, a lot of people cant now, including several of my now unemployed friends who "went to good colleges", "got good jobs" (although maybe they werent so good at them) and lost them - and would otherwise be heading to Indio. I can assure you that a good portion of the non-LA fanbase is going to be gone this year. If they can replace it with locals, more power to them - i just dont think it will happen. The mitigating factor is that so far there have been no other good US festival lineups announced.
Also, wasnt 2007 the only year that actually sold out in advance?
I'm coming from out of state and I save my $ to come. People without jobs shouldn't be going to a 3 day music festival anyway, they should be looking for jobs and buying necessities. But instead they are going to Coachella and my taxes are paying for their lazy asses.
it isn't about whether or not specific artists will make it sell out (like rage in 2007) coachella is becoming known as the whole weekend experience. people who might have just gone one day and have never done all 3 before are now committing to going all out and doing the weekend. having only 3 day passes was a great idea, it will sell out and it will never go back.
In light of the post above me, I would like the following acts to be added:
Surfer Blood Interpol Arctic Monkeys The National Andrew W.K. The Walkmen Woods The Very Best Ted Leo & the Pharmacists DOOM Joanna Newsom Vetiver Arcade Fire
Let ME know when these bands are added...i know it's impossible that they all will be, but mainly - The Walkmen, The Very Best, Arctic Monkeys, Andrew WK
I don't know about everyone else, but that Anon 852 is the kind of person I don't want to bump with at Coachella. There aren't many of them, but they always seep in...
do a little research, people...Surfer Blood is not going to be added. they're playing in New York on Apr. 16th & then in Florida on the 18th. unless they magically transport themselves across the country to play day 2 that Sat., it ain't happenin'...
Jeremy Piven is going to open for Charolete Gainsbourg by drinking Brandy on stage until black out drunk on a velour couch while watching reruns of Fat Albert...i think that's the rumor anon @8:41 is talking about.
297 comments:
1 – 200 of 297 Newer› Newest»I'm still hoping for Soundgarden to be added for Sat. Or is that wishful thinking Monk?
ya what's good monk. Drop some names on us.
Or at least, what are the rumors you're hearing
Will Beck really be performing with Charlotte Gainsbourg?
Ok, I'll be the one to say it...in light of the recent show for Haiti relief...what about a Radiohead add Monk? Also, I love the idea of Beck playing with Charlotte Gainsbourg...it is one of the reasons why I will not miss her set.
Monk, will these be Sahara adds?
Bonobo? He was on your list but missing from the poster
Saturday adds please.
Massive Attack, Underworld, Beck
How many more names are there really room for? Aren't there already as many acts playing this year as there were last year AFTER the adds?
...i have a feeling with it being strictly a festival/camping thing they will keep bands on later then before, making more room for acts..
Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp, Royksopp
the 12midnite curfew is a sound restriction placed by the city of indio. Bands will NOT run any later than usual.
Yeah its 1000k fee for every minute past midnight they violate sound ordinance
the adds are gonna be to Fri. & Sun. btw...Saturday already has like 5 or so more acts than Fri. & Sun. give me some Basement Jaxx in the Sahara Tent on Friday yo!!!
Any word on the Fresh and Onlys?
Beasties
shit i did not know that about the sound restriction.. what b.s.
what about a quieter beck acoustic set?
Friday is going to get the Beastie Boys and Sunday is going to get Massive Attack. Saturday may get Rokysopp. Those are my predictions.
Massive Attack, Underworld, Beck (with Charlotte), Basement Jaxx
The sound curfew's a laugh. Prince played till 1am in '08. $1000/minute fine is peanuts to them. Think about how much money they pay the headliners. If they go over by an hour, that's $60k. Hardly a drop in the bucket.
The last thing Sunday needs is an add.
Additions will probably be for Friday or Saturday.
they usually even out the acts so that there's a similar amount on each day...you gotta look at the #'s, guys. Sat. has too many acts already, adds will be to Fri. & Sun. only.
Basement Jaxx, Massive Attack, Royksopp, Beasties...one of the adds has gotta be at least one out of those 4.
i really hope Massive Attack could be added...
it will the perfect contrast for friday
I think its pretty safe to say that Mos Def will be added on.
Mos Def
RJD2
Luke Vibert
STS9
Trust.
ATDI REUNION YOU HEARD IT HERE 1ST!
Bring Noel Gallagher to Coachella
Here are your adds. They won't all be released at the same time.
Soundgarden, Royksopp, The Beastie Boys, Basement Jaxx, Wilco, Dave Matthews Band, The Flaming Lips
ATDI would be fuckin sic, but Id still rather see Mars Volta! I hope you speak the truth in regard to Soundgarden, BJ and The FL.
Soundgarden? Is there a Holiday Inn Lounge tent?
lulz, DMB!
Chemical Brothers Live
@ 8:43. You are retarded. You just added 4 new headliners to Coachella: BBoys, Soundgarden, Flaming Lips and DMB. Are you kidding?
monk can you say SOMTHING soon?
Seriously - we don't need posts like 8:43 getting our hopes up. :{
Surfer Blood?
i wish it'd be daft punk. but that is a longshot. or is it?
yeah, it is.
The news that Chapterhouse is going to tour in America should have Goldenvoice on the phone making Coachella the first stop. While this wouldn't be a major add to most, for some it would be a special highlight. And while we're at it, since Suede is playing in March in London, why waste all of that practice on one show--Get them on the phone!!! Both of these would be sooooo Coachella!!!
Dizzee Rascal would be perfect for Coacheezie & would absolutely murder the Sahara Tent...haven't looked at his touring schedule but I'd be shocked if he was not at least contacted by GV.
Monk u had to have heard something by now...
Broken Social Scene
BEASTIE BOYS ATDI REUNION BROKEN BELLS LADY GAGA
Jakob Dylan
check out the article- he is a realistic add: http://consequenceofsound.net/2010/02/02/jakob-dylan-likes-his-women-and-country/
Bonarroo got the lips playing Dark side on Thursday night. Could Coachella be adding a big name Thursday night performer for campers only? That would be sic. It would also help their cause and help get campers in earlier!!!
^^^
YES !!!
I seen that roo got FL too , and was wishing for Coachella to get them also .
Campers exclusive set would be SICK !!!
Whats the word Monklish ???
i feel dumb cuz i think i check this 10x more often the monk even does. what a fuck he/she is.
I check it 5x a day, my life is based on coachella right now, its sad.
A bunch of rumors, but no confirmed names yet. Tickets are selling really well so I would not expect anything huge.
One of the rumors is that there is a reunion as a possible addition. Not sure who.
Beastie Boys are still possible. So is Beck.
The Dome is coming back, so there will be a bunch of DJ acts added.
I would love Soundgarden be the reunion. They would be a perfect add for Sat. I know u said at one point that they would be there. Is that ur opinion still Monk?
I LOve You MONKLISH . Happy early Valentines Day ...... thankyou for keeping my HOPE alive for the BBOys
At the Drive-In
Bad Lieutenant
I have heard both of those bands as possibilities, but I have not heard if either are confirmed yet.
at the drive in, is a possibility??
that will be a great act
When you say Beck, is that Beck solo set or Beck guesting with Charlotte Gainsbourg? Both?
hey funky monk, do you know what day(s) will get the add? is a thursday add for the campers possible??
@anon1120 There will likely be some bands or djs for campers. They will not be a huge headliner name, but more like a smaller act that wanted to make two thousand dollars.
@anon1055 Nothing specific. If he's there, I guess he would guest with Charlotte.
Hey Monk, do you know if we're going to be getting some better Sahara acts added?
I know theres Guetta on Sat or whatever, but the Sahara this year seems kinda sparse.
Thanks.
Hopefully it's not a "dubstep" dome this year. Dubstep is fucking terrible.
How about a Suede reunion Monk? I love Suede!
@anon913 Pure Filth is doing one of the nights again, so there should be another dubstep type night with Kode 9 type djs.
@anon1053 I would not expect Suede to do a reunion for Coachella. Their show is supposed to be a one and done for charity. I does not seem likely that they would do a obviously for profit show just a month later in the USA.
@Jason probably. Not sure if they will be better but there should be some more names later.
Hey Monk who's gonna win the Super Bowl?
Colts
nope. saints monk. now i do not trust what you say about these add ons ;)
I was given bad information by my source at Goldenvoice that said that the Saints agreed to lose to the Colts by 7.
Any truth to the rumor that the reunion is A Perfect Circle?
when are the adds coming?
There was a "wait for it" post in the poster changes thread on the Coachella message boards which has triggered a feeling that adds will be coming very shortly. I'm not exactly sure why though.
What happened to Caravan Palace? I read that they were supposed to play.
Looks like The Arctic Monkeys could be headed for Coachella. Their last date of the tour is the 15th of April in Arizona. That addition would be great news.
additions have started on the poster..deletions too! Grace Jones...seee ya!
@anon1219 They will not be there. Not even sure that they will play Bonnaroo like that article said.
so far: Grace Jones (Fri.) OUT...Street Sweeper Social Club (Fri.), Bad Lieutenant (Sat.), & Hierophant (Fri., w/ Shooter Jennings) IN.
whoops...meant to say Shooter Jennings & Hierophant are on Sat., not Fri.
^ shit
Monk ant hope for bonobo like originally predicted
Monk, is there any chance for Massive Attack?
Is this it? How strong is the chance that the Arctic Monkeys will show up on the poster? Are there any real surprises still to come? Still holding out hope for major add. However, Bad Lieutenant is a great add. The only chance to hear Joy Division and New Order songs, which they play in their set. Street Sweeper is boring.
Any truth to the rumor that Nirvana will be reuniting for a surprise one-off Saturday night during Tiesto with Frances Bean singing?
^How Original^
NEWS ON MASSIVE ATTACK ...http://www.kulr8.com/news/entertainment/?feed=bim&id=83879362
IS MASSIVE ATTACK A POSIBILITY FOR A LATE ADD?...MONK
what's goin on with this massive attack shizz
although i'm jealous of a couple of the undercards so far - the National, John Fogerty...Bonnaroo pales in comparison this year.
Probably no Massive Attack.
Monk! What about Wilco?
Beastie Boys still in there Monklish ?
Bad Lieutenant...The Cribs... Might we get a Bernard Sumner and Johnny Marr hook-up, a-la Electronic?????
beastie boys? mos def?
Daryl Hall & Chromeo would be a nice add.
No Massive Attack!? :(
monkers. Just leave Y or N for each if any of these ring true as "possibilities", please
!!!
Arctic Monkeys
The Antlers
The Dodos
The Hood Internet
Neon Indian
The National
The Walkmen
oh and add modest mouse to the y or n list please. thanks monk
damnit...and one more please. What about SURFER BLOOD?! y n? sorry monk
oh and you could always just put up a ? iffin you just don't know anything about it. and what happened to Vieux Farfe...or that band that you had for the very first rumor? Are they still in it?
Massive Attack, Underworld, Beck
After looking at Bonnaroos initial lineup, Ive gotta say, Coachella punked those bitches. Their lineup other than stevie wonder is lackluster at best. Chromeo with Hall is the only other group of interest.
Enough of the hyperbole, sheesh. Bonnaroo looks worse than Coachella, but there are plenty of acts I'd be excited about on the list. It's still one of the top two American festivals at this point.
Any chance of seeing Interpol or Beck?..
i think interpol is a good late addition possibility
Interpol, She Wants Revenge, and Editors will join Bad Lieutenant for a Joy Division cover marathon.
Bonnaroo is a joke!
Who cares about this line-up? Chromeo and The National are the only ones I would like to see added to Coachella, but who cares anyway? Coachella is clearly the best line-up top to bottom, and when they add Arctic Monkeys game, set, and match. Lollapalooza will, as usual, be poor.
Who cares about Wonder, Garfunkel, Matthews, Canadian Rag whatever, Kings of Leo....You get the point.
i have a good feeling about Sasquatch! this year
I'd rather have Royksopp on Friday than Arctic Monkeys any day of any year. But then I'm not a fan.
Speaking of, Monk, Royksopp? Please give me anything but no.
Btw 3:41, Garfunkel ain't playing the roo.
I thought the BEASTIE BOYS were going to be a late add?
Monk, who do you think the late adds will be????
WE WANT ROYKSOPP!
any possibility of:
Interpol
Soundgarden
Wilco
?
What's with the CHA CHA CHA CHELLA status on facebook? BOWIE?!
BEASTIE BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????????!!!!!!!!1
They need to add Massive Attack. They would be fuckin perfect, but they need the stage for at least 90 minutes.
Also has anyone else listened to the new Yeasayer? they just fuckin killed it with that album.
Is Sade possible Monk? Her new album is great.
well, apparently no one knows anything here - why do i keep coming to this website....
what's the rule with bands coming back to california a month later? i.e. If the National comes back to california in may they probably won't be at coachella? but their schedule doesn't start until the 22cnd of april...a small hope maybe.
The Tallest Man On Earth just tours right on through, that sucks, cuz he is AMAZING live.
That was kind of a downer message wasn't it?
Any chance for
The Felice Brothers
!!!
Arctic Monkeys
The Antlers
The Dodos
The Walkmen
???
Coachella, please no Massive Attack. I love them to death, but their new album sucks and that's probably what they'll mostly play if they get booked.
Bonobo is playing in LA on April 22. Seems like Coachella is still in the mix for him, eh???
What's the word on the Beasties Monk?
monk can you either say SOMETHING or delete this blog and bring it back once you actually hear something
Hey Monk where are u? You've been awfully quiet.
Are any of these bands a possibilty:
At the Drive-In
Neon Indian
Japandroids
Micachu
Thanks and please respond!! :)
Neutral Milk Hotel reunion?! haha if only..
So is the daily swarm accurate with the Lollafail they are reporting?
Monk, The least you could do is let us know what you are hearing. Many of us check your blog on a daily basis, and have trusted your information. At least address some of the heavy rumors, and the questions. In that case:
Arctic Monkeys? Coachella?
Any serious surprises Coachella?
Warpaint Coachella?
Haha if that is Lolla's lineup that is awful.
@anon1111 Yes except for the Arcade Fire part.
@anon348 Would be great but no chance
@anon1227 Busy work week. No news other than other festivals announcing their lineups. Of your list, At the Drive In could be most likely (but not very likely). The last two will not be there, definitely.
@anon1213 I believe this counts.
@anon748 Looks like they are taking more time off than they originally thought they would. Their first show back will likely be Lollapalooza.
Based on their headlining at Sasquatch I would assume that Coachella did not want to pay so much for Massive Attack this year.
Sucks about Beasties. I hope they play Outside Lands.
Sade added to Coachella? Is it true Monk?
http://blogs.ocweekly.com/heardmentality/coachella/sade-added-to-coachella-line-u/
Monklish, Greg Kot (Chicago Tribune) has said that Arcade Fire and The Strokes are in talks to play Lolla - are you sure about Arcade Fire not being at LOlla?
can rule out the antlers :(
Sade Coachella!? Big fucking deal.
Better than Grace Jones..
Ted Leo?
Surfer Blood?
The National?
Arctic Monkeys?
Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings?
Any knowledge monk?
Free Credit Report.com Band headlining saturday over Muse?
monklish- the arctic monkeys just posted a show in vegas on april 16th... bands often play vegas if theyre playing coachella that weekend.. would you say this is good evidence of them being added to the lineup?
Arctic Monkeys are a terrible festival band.
that's a retarded statement...monkeys kicked ass in 2007 (I think that was the year)...perfect set on the main stage as the sun was going down.
arctic monkeys WERE great in 07 and they were great at lolla last year...that was a ridiculous statement.
Monklish already said no Arcade Fire at Lolla. Just because they were in talks doesn't mean they are going to play. Bowie gets asked to play Coachella every year, and those "talks" didn't yield shit. Imagine they said "thanks but no thanks" just like with every other festival this year, those fuckers.
Sade would kick ass, as would the guy from FreeCreditReport.com (tell your kids tell your dad tell your mom)
Anon - Greg Kot doesn't just spew off bands randomly.
I'd much rather see The Last Shadow Puppets than arctic monkeys.
Joanna Newsom will be added.
since we first showed up with our pirate hats on!
I just wish that somebody had told me that place was a Renaissance Fair!
what about The Very Best?
Woods
The Very Best
Neon Indian
The National, DOOM, Arctic Monkeys, The Smith Westerns, Best Coast, Janelle Monae, Ted Leo & the Pharmacists, Joanna Newsom, and Vetiver are possibilities?
Arcade Fire, Wilco, The Pixies, At the Drive In, and Mission of Burma are far off possibilities?
do lab and luscent dossier not there this year?
Broken Social Scene is playing San Fransisco on May 1st. Ant they'll be at SXSW, they're new album comes out May 4th. They could be an add, couldn't they?
It's not Broken Social Scene without Feist and Emily Haines, anyway.
Will Gorillaz be doing any touring besides Coachella? Know-it-alls on the internet are split on this issue.
Anon 146
Sadly there aren't plans for one in sight. Go to Gorillaz-unofficial.com for the full story on that..just came out today..
Boo YAH! No one has realized how aweseome this lineup is. Gorillaz themselves make this lineup stellar and unique and the best so far this year.
Pavement's totally gonna headline guys.
Perry Farrell vs. something or other added. Shocking!
I like how GV books him every year and they still spelled his last name wrong on the poster.
yeah, it's Steve Porter...a semi-big name house DJ (I'd describe his style as tech house to be specific)...who's playing with Perry. interesting.
dj steve porter of Slap-Chop remix fame???
So, we are on the last week of February and no real news from Monk or anyone reliable. Are we going to get some nice adds Monk? If so, I guess it is taking longer than what you expected.
I check this blog every day!
Coachella ALLways has a surprise add or two.
We know this:
Beasties - Doubt it, More time off
Stones - Doubt it
Soundgarden - Doubt it
Massive Attack - Not for less than headlining money
Bowie - Always a possibility, never a chance
Underworld - Possibly Maybe
Eagles - Gawd I hope not! But Mayyyyyybe
At The Drive In - Mayyyyyyybe
Sade - Mayyyyyyybe
Arctic Monkeys - Mayyyyyybe
Basement Jaxx - Good Chance
Bonobo - Good Chance
And NOW we know Imogen Heap was added.
ugh why Imogen Heap? don't we already have enough lame girly shit on the lineup??
ADD SOUNDGARDEN DAMNIT!
What about:
The National
Wilco
The Flaming Lips
Beck
Andrew Bird
Jason Collett
Animal Collective
The Strokes
All of them have dates available during Coachella. Some of them are touring other festivals as well.
^^^^^
The Decemberists
^^^^^^^6
Broken Social Scene
Imogen Heap? This is the add? What?? ARCTIC MONKEYS are right next door that friday...what are they waiting for??? I would think this should have been an add by this time.
Imogen Heap is the subtitute for Grace Jones.
Be patient for the adds. Last year Chemical Brothers, Orb, Plump DJs, and others weren't announced till March 9th-ish. (Course, Amy Drunkhouse had dropped out...)
And be prepared for nothing too big. Tickets are selling great, and I read they might be sold out by late March.
Beck will almost certainly be there, playing with Charlotte Gainsbourg. Don't expect a huge announcement on this.
Die Antwoord will be added.
Guys, i love the lineup, but there is ZERO chance they sellout - remember, they're only selling 3 day passes.
"Zero chance they sell out."
What a fucking idiot.
@anon231 It is actually selling so well that I would not expect them to sell single day tickets for future festivals.
@ 3:18 - suck my balls, seriously. Suck em.
i will take the ZERO chance back. You're right, if they add another huge name, maybe.
Just remember that Jay cant sell out the hollywood bowl. Muse has already toured with U2 and continues to tour the country and world. and Gorillaz is the only thing unique about the headliners. As much as i love the undercard, if you think that's what gets a sellout, you're stupid. If you think there are 60,000 people willing to shell out $300 for tickets alone, wake up. I guess you dont read the headlines. Over 10% unemployment. Wake up.
and, this being my 7th year, i'll tell you i like the 3 day pass only option.
btw monk, if it's selling so well, does that mean no more adds?
It's not a surprise people. even last year, 80% of all tickets sold were 3-day passes. If you're complaining about the lack of 1-day tix...sorry, but Golden Voice and Coachella aren't your target demographic.
Finish college (I either bought one-day passes or didn't go at all while getting my education on), get a good job, and make enough money to not complain.
Oh man that unemployment. That's REALLY effecting ticket sales.
God you're dumb.
come down from your ivory tower. i make more than enough money to go to coachella 3 days every year for 7 years. My point is that even though you and i may be able to afford it, a lot of people cant now, including several of my now unemployed friends who "went to good colleges", "got good jobs" (although maybe they werent so good at them) and lost them - and would otherwise be heading to Indio. I can assure you that a good portion of the non-LA fanbase is going to be gone this year. If they can replace it with locals, more power to them - i just dont think it will happen. The mitigating factor is that so far there have been no other good US festival lineups announced.
Also, wasnt 2007 the only year that actually sold out in advance?
I'm coming from out of state and I save my $ to come. People without jobs shouldn't be going to a 3 day music festival anyway, they should be looking for jobs and buying necessities. But instead they are going to Coachella and my taxes are paying for their lazy asses.
it isn't about whether or not specific artists will make it sell out (like rage in 2007) coachella is becoming known as the whole weekend experience. people who might have just gone one day and have never done all 3 before are now committing to going all out and doing the weekend. having only 3 day passes was a great idea, it will sell out and it will never go back.
come on what about joanna newsom???
I'd like the following acts please:
STP
Soundgarden
Surfer Blood
Massive Attack
Interpol
Thanks, let me know when you finally added them.
In light of the post above me, I would like the following acts to be added:
Surfer Blood
Interpol
Arctic Monkeys
The National
Andrew W.K.
The Walkmen
Woods
The Very Best
Ted Leo & the Pharmacists
DOOM
Joanna Newsom
Vetiver
Arcade Fire
Let ME know when these bands are added...i know it's impossible that they all will be, but mainly - The Walkmen, The Very Best, Arctic Monkeys, Andrew WK
I don't know about everyone else, but that Anon 852 is the kind of person I don't want to bump with at Coachella. There aren't many of them, but they always seep in...
ya usually conservative asshole don't go to coachella..
"coming from out of state.."
i wonder which hick state he is coming from
Any news about:
Broken Bells ♥ ♥
The Morning Benders
Surfer Blood
Joanna Newsom
do a little research, people...Surfer Blood is not going to be added. they're playing in New York on Apr. 16th & then in Florida on the 18th. unless they magically transport themselves across the country to play day 2 that Sat., it ain't happenin'...
Here We Go Magic seems like they might be a lock based on this Pitchfork article:
