Talking Green Day Headlining???

Would it suck, or not? I don't think it would seeing as they would have to play a bunch of new stuff, although, I don't think they would be ready to play new stuff by that time, but they are quite capable of pulling off Coachella, I'm sure.

In b4 the intelligentsia that will tell you they have no place at Coachella, that GV would be desecrating the holy site of the Polo grounds by letting them in the gate, etc, etc ad nauseum.

In reality, they would f'in rock !

Getting Green Day as headliner when Radiohead is not going to be a headliner is absolutely unacceptable.

(Taking a bow). Also, as someone who can not attend Coachella 2008, I am really REALLY hoping you lucky people get Green Day and Kanye West. And oh, say, Coldplay. And for some reason the Sahara Tent is closed.

If douche bags were conscious, I have to assume they would either be very happy or very miserable creatures.

Oh, and i'm NOT a Green Day fan, but they are really good live... and i'd be more psyched to see them then Coldplay or Kanye West... or even, say, Daft Punk or Radiohead (*gasp!* blasphemy!!!)... but, then again, i'd probably be in the Sahara Tent during Green Day anyway, so...

So wait, you'd be in the Sahara Tent, but you'd rather see Green Day than Daft Punk? I can only assume you are some sort of robophobe.

I just don't want Green Day at Coachella.

The problem with them is the following in order.

1) Too many extra Kroq people will be attracted to Coachella. It's bad enough that they announce the line up on Kevin and Bean now. Remember the year that Bean (maybe it was Kevin, not sure but I know it was one of them) flew into Coachella on a private helicopter. I thought it was one of the artists coming to play but no it was one of the KROQ Djs, who by the way get over a million per year each for the work they do which I find totally outrageous.

2) They're overplayed by now.

3) The people that the song American Idiot is about don't realize the song is about them and groove to it anyway.

I need to stop myself before I write a novel...

If RHCP can headline then so can Green Day. I actually support this. You know the movie Blade where the vampires have their own little world but no humans know about it, they just do their own thing? Kind of like that. The Green Day fans won't have heard or be interested in any of the bands/raves I want to see so more room for me and mine, y'all.
