TURBONEGRO... FUCK YEAH!

[sweet artie]

I've wished and asked for Turbonegro to be @ Coachella for the past 3 years. Goldenvoice has FINALLY come to their senses and added a truly awesome and entertaining Rock 'N' Roll band!
(I think the festival is always better with a little kick ass R 'N' R thrown in the mix... i.e. The Hives, (International) Noise Conspiracy, QOTSA)
Be ready for the sea of sailor hats and denim jackets... the Turbojugend will be in full effect ya'll!

[gratytrainridesagain]

I don't get why people listen to these guys at all

[donkey sex]

Wonder how Tiger Woods feels about the word 'negro' being used in a band name.

[sweet artie]

Holy mackeral "gratytrain"... you must be one of those Jack Johnson fans.
You obviously know nothing about good Punk Rock 'N' Roll...

[gratytrainridesagain]

Actually hate Jack Johnson. But after watching the live videos I can see how this would be fun. I don't really like the music but the shows look fun.

[blackchango]

[Memorial_07]

Can't wait to get in the pit for "All my Friends are Dead"!

Stroke the shaft

make it last



hahah i love turbonegro

[B∞Rdom§]

is turbonegro a joke band?

[4Ransom]

fuck yea, im really looking forward to these guys. what are their best albums?

and anybody know of more just straight up rock n roll bands like this playing this year? im sick of being recommended all these bands and they turn out to be some mellow folk shit. when im in the middle of the desert, i want to rock out with my cock out damnit, not take a nap to some indie nerd pouring out his heart with his acoustic guitar!

Sorry to say but you'll most likely have better luck at Lolla when it comes to that

i totally dig that video! German audiences are fuckin weird...but i love it! They start chanting stuff and taunting each other, its awesome! That song is pretty good too. Ill have to look these guys up....

now if these guys are on the lineup....does that mean Prodigy are getting added aswell :)

oh so they play the wild boys song

[malcolmjamalawesome]

I GOT ERECTION

[krk67]

I'll definitely be at this one since Turbonegro are one of, like only, five or six rawk acts on the bill at the moment. Bands with balls make me feel all funny inside.

While more guitars and less synthesizers would make me a very happy girl, I can accept if this year is a rave revival. I can stand to learn a few new bands.

[Memorial_07]

whoever asked if they were Nazi punk...No
They are from Norway

And who is going to get in the pit for "All My Friends Are Dead"?
Whoever is going to see TurboNegro, let's try to get the biggest circle pit for them!!!

Just an Idea

[Kurosawa]

When I first heard they might be attending this year, I grabbed their album (Retox) to check em out. Not exactly my thing but I did really dig "We're Gonna Drop the Atom Bomb", the first track.

However, am I the only one that starts singing "You Could Be Mine" by G'n'R during the chorus? Try it, they match up perfectly:

"Weeeeeeee're gonna drop the atom bomb!
weeee're gonna burn your happy home.
With your bitchslap rapping and your cocaine tongue
You'll get nooooooooooothin done

ohhhhhhhhh youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu cooooooooould be miiiiiiiiiiiiii yi yi yi iiiiiiiiiiine"

When I've seen them there has been no pit.... or at least the Pit I'm use to. Seems like one of the most promising for Saturday.

Damn...really?

Well you know some people in the crowd will be willing to mosh

[B∞Rdom§]

seriously
if turbonegro is serious that's pathetic
and if they're a joke
that's even more pathetic

[deathvalleyblues]

[brando4n82]

you said it. My friend was telling me about these guys after we bought our Detour tickets. Checked out their Myspace and they sounded really lame...

He dragged me to their set at Detour and it was Awesome. had a really fun time. Great live act. i just may have to catch them again

[NeverMyopic]

fuck yea, im really looking forward to these guys. what are their best albums?

I love this band - I have every album of theirs (in all the bands inceptions - changed members/singers 3 times since 1992). These are my favorites:

Apocoalypse Dudes (1998)
Scandanavian Leather (2003)
Never Is Forever (1994)/Ass Cobra (1996)
Retox (2007)
Party Animals (2005)
Hot Cars and Spent Contraceptives (1992)

For your info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbonegro


Lastly, someone mentioned if they are a serious band. Yes they are, they just don't take themselves seriously and actually write some great music. Some of their lyrics are out there, but all in all a fun band that is awesome live.

[summerkid]

is turbonegro a joke band?

i dunno it depends how you look at it. was Alice Cooper a joke too? Not all music needs to be serious, Turbonegro just rocks and has fun.

[smoke]

so im just listening to these guys for the first time tonight..

their set is gonna be a fun fuckin show!!

added to my list

[Bulletproof]

So excited for them. They're one of the few bands I want to see this year.

[im so indie]

what a pile of crap

[deathvalleyblues]

what a pile of crap

Youre name says a lot about you.

[im so indie]

Youre name says a lot about you.

oh it's true. i'm the hippest mother fucker in the world. i know about sweet bands that haven't even come out yet. but i don't even care, cuz i'm so damn cool. i don't even like music, i just know so much about it, i have to tell people what's cool and what's lamesville.

also, i'm harrison ford, so that works with the name too.

[Abe Lincoln]

I love how the lead guitarist is sitting on one of his bandmates shoulders while playing guitar. they kick ass.
Totally stolen from Olga of Toy Dolls.

Thank you for reiterating my thoughts exactly. I mean you're obviously too cool school so go ahead and take that mouth of yours and go blow some of those sweet bands.

[im so indie]

lol i love this board

[Weatherman]

And who is going to get in the pit for "All My Friends Are Dead"?
Whoever is going to see TurboNegro, let's try to get the biggest circle pit for them!!!


Definitely. Hopefully just as big as AM!'s last year.

[RooTeefy]

They openly admit to blantanly ripping other bands off. It's part of their schtick.

[Snowy]

I can't wait to see them! I was so happy when I saw them on the bill. WOO!

[Touchmonkey]

is turbonegro a joke band?

Yes they are, and the punchline is your bruised and bloody anus!
Have a wonderful time at the show. God bless!

Sorry to disappoint you all, but chalk up this one as another cancellation:

(From Punknews.org)

"It is with great further regret that we will now have to cancel our trip to the US in April to play the west coast shows, most regrettably ’The Coachella Festival’. A huge apology to the US fans and to the promoters, I’m sure that all will understand that this decision wasn’t taken lightly, but it is the right decision for Euroboy. He is in good shape, all considered, but his treatment makes it impossible for him be away for long periods of time and certainly not to be taking long haul flights. We are keeping the European shows from May 2nd forward in place, as this schedule works within the boundaries of his treatment. It’s a delicate situation we find ourselves in, our first priority is Euroboy’s health, we’ll look at everything else when we know that he is well."

[4Ransom]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

[rage patton]

Holy shit... ANOTHER cancellation?

[4Ransom]

this is the worst one yet IMO.

[wstsidela]

this is the worst one yet IMO.

No shit!!!

[betao]

Madness was the worst.

but this one still sucks.

[rage patton]

Madness was the worst.

but this one still sucks.

Madness was the worst X 100000000000000000000000000.

I'm not really a big fan of Turbonegro, but I have heard they are a blast live. So if they didnt conflict with anyone, I was gonna check them out. I had a feeling they were gonna conflict with Portishead/Kraftwerk though. Now I am worried... who is gonna conflict with Portiswerk?

[JClemy]

We still have Gogol. They will be awesome live!

[4Ransom]

Madness was the worst X 100000000000000000000000000.


your madness obsession is bordering on stupid.

im not a huge fan of either, but i was really excited to see turbonegro. i was thinking they were gonna be one of the funnest sets of the weekend. oh well...

[gaypalmsprings]

JJ was the worst to cancel. Oh, that's right, he's still playing. There's always hope that he'll pull a turbonegro

[orbit]

I wonder what would happen if Jack Johnson cancels. It might be too late to find a replacement for that headliner spot, so they would have to rearrange the schedule and move another band to that spot.. Perhaps the Verve?

[rage patton]

your madness obsession is bordering on stupid.

I don't really know your taste in music... but just imagine if an extremely rare act that you LOVE was scheduled to play Coachella. Then cancels. You would be upset too.

[betao]

They would probably bump The Verve to the headlining spot. But would keep an eye open for another headliner.

[gaypalmsprings]

This would be a good substitute for Turbonegro:

Anal Gestapo (sometimes credited as Nazipenis) is a Serbian tribute band to a Norwegian band Turbonegro.

[Weatherman]

One less conflict, I guess :(

[ghettojournalist]

first The Streets and now Turbonegro. doubley disappointed.

[paulb]

damn, thats fuckin lame!!!! Replacement please...

[psycobetabuckdown]

They would probably bump The Verve to the headlining spot. But would keep an eye open for another headliner.

Is it right or wrong that I think the lineup would look better if this happened?

damn, thats fuckin lame!!!! Replacement please...

For all the drops, don't they kind of owe it to us to replace them with something of similar or slightly less quality? Or maybe for every 3 bands that drop 1 good band gets added? Or maybe they're just making room for Madness to come back onto the poster.

[Boourns]

Coachella 2008 is Cancelchella

I hope that wit was worth the 3 seconds it took to post it.

[Cdubby]

they are going to add primus, queens of the stoneage, and my bloody valentine.

[paulb]

they are going to add primus, queens of the stoneage, and my bloody valentine.

will u eat this post if that doesnt happen?

[Cdubby]

will u eat this post if that doesnt happen?


well we all know this wont happen, but im hoping for 1-2 decent adds with all the cancels. still okay with the lineup as is though.

[Boourns]

The problem with adds is that it's probably more difficult to book certain bands now than it was four months ago since now they actually have legit reasons for not playing, like prior engagements.

Unless said band wasn't asked, then cross those fingers.

[psycobetabuckdown]

They should add Yes.

[alex gardner]

mars volta getting added 1000% sure.

[Boourns]

Two sets of Portishead

[rage patton]

Or maybe they're just making room for Madness to come back onto the poster.

Yes please. :)

[SFChrissy]

pooo I was really looking forward to seeing them!!!

[brycerosen]

They should add Yes.


Yes is doing a "Closer to the Edge" Tour, how fucking amaizing would it be to see Dark Side of the Moon and Closer to the Edge. Two of the greatest progressive albums in one weekend.

[nbvwes]

well we all know this wont happen, but im hoping for 1-2 decent adds with all the cancels. still okay with the lineup as is though.

didn't we already?? aphex twin & goldfrapp wasn't good enough? how about serj tankian or redd kross? or... um... uh, lucent dossier & the do lab? okay, i got nothing...


Two sets of Portishead

both albums in their entirety??

[msklvr]

both albums in their entirety??

All three albums maybe?

[4Ransom]

I don't really know your taste in music... but just imagine if an extremely rare act that you LOVE was scheduled to play Coachella. Then cancels. You would be upset too.

i know, i was just giving you shit dude. but its just madness...its not like it was fuckin Faith No More or something.


as for turbonegro, they should book gwar to replace them.

[nbvwes]

All three albums maybe?

ooohhh i got owned...




they should change this thread from "Turbonegro... FUCK YEAH!"

to: "Turbonegro... FUCK!"

[nbvwes]

does anyone even have a tracklisting or run-time on the new, to-be-released Portishead?

[rage patton]

i know, i was just giving you shit dude. but its just madness...its not like it was fuckin Faith No More or something.


as for turbonegro, they should book gwar to replace them.

I have been a pretty big Madness fan for a long time. I was in complete shock and disbelief when I saw them on the line up this year. Having them cancel was a huge blow. With that being said, if Faith No More were on the line up, then cancelled... I don't even know what I would do.

GWAR would be fucking hilarious at Coachella. I would see them.

[nbvwes]

Faith No More would be epic!!! (2009??), but they'd probably cancel too...

i don't see Gwar anywhere but SotU though...

[psycobetabuckdown]

Yes is doing a "Closer to the Edge" Tour, how fucking amaizing would it be to see Dark Side of the Moon and Closer to the Edge. Two of the greatest progressive albums in one weekend.

Yes on the outdoor stage while Roger Waters plays main stage?

Ragepatton really likes Madness. Hehe.

aphex twin and red kross are great adds for me. but this is a more recent cancellation and an add would be nice to replace one that dropped off. or does this not make any sense? im happy with the lineup as is, no cancellations affected me at all, to be honest.

[xxxorcoxxx]

stone roses reunion 08'

[bartelby]

this

really

sucks

[rage patton]

Faith No More would be epic!!! (2009??), but they'd probably cancel too...

2012 man. It will happen either on or before 2012. I don't know why. I just have this feeling.

it BETTER... world comes to an end that year...

[Butthead'sCousin]

seriously - i have only heard a few songs but i got really excited when i saw them on the line up - one of the few bands i was excited to see. oh well - it'll still be fun. i mainly go for the experience anyways.
thank god for flogging molly and gogol bordello
