The fact both their most recent outputs have Black Lives Matter sentiments? They're completely different genres I wouldn't have even known that. Different genre's yes but still heavily going to be followed by similar fan bases. They would both heavily fit in with Wireless for example as they have booked along those lines. There is a heavy crossover in the likes of Beyonce, Drake, Kanye etc etc and yes they are all black but that's not racist, the majority of Rap, Hip Hop and R&B acts are.

plaskins Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) sA few years ago, maybe many years? I wouldn't have minded going to Coachella. This year's lineup is piss poor to be fair. I guess that's to be expected, they had a choice between Clinton & Trump. Maybe the musical choice was equally as bad..

henry bear Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 I wonder who Dave will wheel out (if anyone) as a 'surprise guest' and claim they're from 'the best band ever', the way he did with May/Taylor, Page/Jones etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madyaker Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 I doubt they'll wheel out anyone to be honest but page would be cool. I still will be elsewhere though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I went for QotSA and stayed for White Stripes. It's OK to have a different opinion though as far as I'm concerned, so long as it's not expressed like it's a fact.

DownboundTrain52 Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 Blimey, that's a throwback of a bill. I was but a mere scrapper then, years away from my first gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
