Initially thought it looked pretty weak after seeing the top few rows of each day but then when you give it a proper look over there is a fair amount of great stuff further down the lineup imo. As is increasingly the case with Coachella/all major U.S. festivals, not one for the rock or indie heads and Rage would’ve been a strange headliner to have topping it tbh, but if you’re in to hip hop, electronic and pop then there’s loads to get your teeth stuck in to. 

Agreed some good stuff hidden in the smaller fonts 

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Yeah, that'll be a great weekend. 

My heart skipped a beat though, when I thought Annie Lennox was making a comeback.

[Memory Man]

You think it looks crap then realise they get bridgers, carly rae, daphni and amyl on one day

the sunday is awful though.

look how low hot chip are! 

Yard act have squeezed on at the very bottom, they must have insanely good connections

Digested

If I was going, from the initial poster my must sees would be…

Harry Styles, Pheobe Bridgers, Baby Keem, Carly Rae Jepsen, Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, Danny Elfman, Stromae, Caroline Polachek, 100 gecs, Pabllo Vittar, Rina Sawayama, Japanese Breakfast, Ye, Doja Cat, Run The Jewels, Maneskin, FINNEAS, Dave, Kim Petras, beeabadoobee (and maybe Swedish House Mafia tick them off a list).

A good solid list and a good time for sure.

I mean great … but must sees from a poster we haven’t had ? Isn’t it worth just waiting for the poster ?

[Matt42]

I am envious at what sort of shit Ye has planned. He will steal the show.

Yeah, regardless of the rest of the lineup, that Kanye set is the one that’s gonna have all eyes on it. His last Coachella set is one of the GOATs so fingers crossed he can make this one really special. That Larry Hoover thing proved that he’s still got it when he really wants it, and that his back catalogue is just insanely good.

There is going to be a huge aspect of begging Kim back but the rest of it will be cool.

He’s going to bring out Travis isn’t he?

[Suprefan]

Just wait when he does Sunday Service weekend 1 and youll be wondering why youre watching. Then all of Donda weekend 2 and youll realize the trap that has been laid.  These are the moments that make me glad Ive gotten to see him plenty since 2005 and am not looking at him as a bucket list artist.

I'm going. I'll be aiming to see:

SHM / Harry / Phoebe Bridgers / King Gizzard / Snoh Aalegra / Madeon / IDLES / Carly Rae Jepsen / Spiritualized / Daphni / BBNG / the Avalanches / Tokimonsta / Arooj Aftab / Logic1000 / Ela Minus / Jayda G

Flume / Megan thee Stallion / 21 Savage / Stromae / Caribou / Caroline Polachek / Turnstile / Freddie Gibbs & Madlib / Hot Chip / DJ Koze / Steve Lacy / Floating Points / Nilüfer Yanya + probably Disclosure if there's no clash

Kanye / Fatboy Slim / Måneskin / Vince Staples / Dave / Blessed Honey b2b / beabadobee / Channel Tres / Molchat Doma / Eyedress / Altin Gün + maybe Jamie xx if I’m bored

I’m jealous I would love to go.

The thing is Coachella does require a certain level of US hip hop knowledge I find. So that’s why a lot of brits look at it sometimes and get confused.

Also they lean heavily into the Latin America market and book non-English speaking acts… which is sort of like what Glastonbury does with West Holts etc. Same difference.

What I do like about Coachella and have a bit of admiration for is they are very confident giving up and coming artists very prominent slots. It may be just to cash in on new fads, but you can hardly say they have their top positions as far away prospects. They’ve also got a very good eye for who is going to be big in a few years time. It gives goers a great opportunity to catch tomorrows headliners in a somewhat underdeveloped form.

They gave Billie a top billing before her debut dropped!

I looked straight into plane tickets and resale Coachella passes, can't swing it unfortunately but if it's worth doing anyone for, it's Ye. The Sunday Service set was incredible, I remember watching it live.

Friday and Sunday are the stronger one's for me, Saturday is very dull though.

Presuming SHM close after Harry Styles, Friday probably has the edge.

Just generally not the festival for me anymore.

Think I'd actually attend Primavera Sound over it.
