acts you could imagine being at coachella...

[Memorial_07]

not necessarily speculation (insert band name here) will be playing, but i could see them playing (insert stage name here).

who do you have in mind?

[PassiveTheory]

Isn't that the point of this forum?

[Memorial_07]

Isn't that the point of this forum?

any unexpected band that may not seem like coachella type, but you can imagine them being there anyways

[jimmycrackcorn]

kate nash or feist...
i'm thinking one of them will be there next year...
stages?
-shrugs-

[PassiveTheory]

Kate Nash played this year... Feist is a fit for Coachella, so she should be there but she isn't unexpected.

Probably Bad Religion or the Offspring or someone like them... I dunno, most of the bands I like are good fit for Coachella... Yeah...

[gaypalmsprings]

prince or john waters

[boarderwoozel3]

I was sure Feist was going to be there this year... oh well.

[Memorial_07]

weirdest sounding yet...and it beats yours PT...
Leftover Crack or GBH.

[Trailmix]

James, I forsee them next year. New album mold school following. Playing Outdoor against a big act (GV style) or Mojave.

Punk has never really been Coachella's thing as of yet so unless something changes I doubt either Bad Religion or the Offspring. Oh and in my opinion Bad Religion>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Offspring. Rather see some other punk bands if they are adding punk to the lineup.

[loveless]

locust sounded cool, didn't think they would play. same goes for blood brothers.

probably lightning bolt or boredoms!

Punk seems to be getting big at coachella.
Though not in abundance, big names.
Gogol and Flogging. Get Intro5pect next.

[loveless]

weren't turbonegro on the list?

[menikmati]

Get fucking Built to Spill already. Please.

[sikiboy]

Squirrel Nut Zippers... Hhmmm closing outdoor theatre...

[thewindowliquor]

Bela Fleck and the Flecktones
Boards of Canada
David Bowie

And if there are going to be punk bands at coachella.. why not have the most epic fucking punk reunion anyone could possibly do right now, and get Refused? Or better yet, Black Flag, with Hank. Then again, I dunno. That might get violent.

[thewindowliquor]

Meh. I saw them at this show:

http://www.frystreetfair.com/images/photoalbum/6/001.jpg

It was on the campus of the college I went to. Built to Spill was on right before Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. At the time, I was a pretty big Built to Spill fan, and their live show was pretty disappointing. Luckily, the Flecktones came on next and destroyed everything.

Bela Fleck and the Flecktones for Coachella 09!

Black Flag isn't the heaviest or fastest band, but yes it would be very very violent.
Same goes for Discharge.

The Killers



yet another lurker loses their music listening license in one fell swoop.

[Spongehead56]

I've been thinking Dream Theater would be great to have at Coachella. Well established, very talented, and they have a great live show.

[BeeII]

Led motherfucking Zeppelin

I'm calling Muse to headline a night.

Moby will play somewhere - if its a DJ set, in the sahara, if live, then it could be anywhere.

The Prodigy will probably play to make up for what happened this year.

My Bloody Valentine will also be asked to play.

They may not have the "typical" 4 chord punk guitars... but that doesn't mean they aren't punk bands. Punk is more then just a sound. Its about their lyrics and their attitudes. Gogol Bordello and Flogging Molly both have large punk followings as well.

Good point, Rage.
Speaking of punk, would it be welcome at coachella?

you like the killers, which proves beyond argument that you are incapable of detecting fraudulent, money-making corporate engine "bands" like, well, the killers.

and good lord, man.
"you're just trying to be cool! sticks and stones!"

sorry, that was a bit of a rewind, but you know me- I don't take kindly to stupid dicks.

anyways-
I think the damned closing the outdoor theater, or ideally in a kraftwerk slot, would be amazing. unfortunately, I don't think there'e enough of a north american fan base to support them playing the main stage or outdoor anytime after five.
in which case, I'd like to see them close the mojave against a main stage headliner (this works out- it means I don't have to put up with an hour and a bit of either a re-hashed outkast greatest hits extravaganza, or (much worse, imo) a freaking jay-z set, and the people who like jay z don't have to put up with the damned)

the Damned?
that is a huge act.
Circle Jerks i could see, but the Damned is a HUGE name for that slot.
