I obviously don't go to the right places, never see anything about tips in the pubs round here.

More bars than pubs, not super common but see it occasionally.

The lads got guest passes btw. But they still dont know how to go to any stage named Outdoor Theater, Sonora, Gobi, Mojave or Yuma. And even Despacio. Or Heineken House! 

They don't like dance music

15$ for the ferris wheel as well lol

Its just a rip off honestly who cares about the crowd, acts whatever. for the same price flying from the UK you could do 4-5 UK festivals

That Knocked Loose crowd is about as standard issue a pit as you’d find at pretty much any metal festival in any country round the world. Weirdly the wildest ive been in was in Paris, which was absolutely nuts 🙃 

I like Knocked Loose though, they’re alright!

Good old Yorkshire representation.

Just watched didn't look like they had as much of a good crack as last year.

Ferris wheel was free if you took 30 seconds on the coachella app to fill out some info for American Express and you redeemed a free ticket. The lads cant even find discounts. My thing is they should just go to all the stages to show their viewers what in the actual fuck is happening everywhere. And they also werent even smart enough to go to the 3 secret bars that are inside the fest now.

But apparently coachella is just full of rich influencers who only take pretty pictures for instagram. Not hardcore kids going off at a stage. The tent was full and there was a queue outside to get in.

Ferris wheel was free if you’re an American Express cardholder or you pass over your details to apply for one…

1. International visitors likely cannot do this, can't say for certain obviously but seems logical

2. Not everyone can get an American Express card

@Suprefan once again requesting your weekend 2 vlog to see how the pros do it. you say TPD TV are shit but don't give an alternative. is there any other good coachella vloggers we should look into?

Who wouldve thought a hockey podcast gets you the frank ocean dirt. First 20 minutes

Lfg, ill go back for some seconds. schedule prob soon.

 

 

[Enkidu]

lmfao

 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Oh dear. Fair enough if he’s genuinely injured but his time as a major festival headliner is surely finished even if he one day starts making music properly again. Just not a risk worth taking, sadly. 

[Rose-Colored Boy]

also.. shitty Blink as the replacement when Bjork and Rosalia are right there. Eesh

[stanh]

lmao. also, agree with above, rosalía deserved the bump up.

For a fracture he sure was enjoying himself on stage jumping up and down and running around. Florence Welch broke her foot on that stage and finished her set. Then came back a week later and  sat. Axl Rose broke his foot 2 weeks before Coachella and had the Grohl Throne. Im sorry, Frank found a way to get out of this and the medical excuse is valid and allows an out for him and the fest and dont gotta fully pay his ass. Blink will be fun. You guys just want them to do the lazy bump up thing and such like the eeavi. If blink hadnt played last week and they dropped this news everyone would be shocked and surprised and excited. Thats still happening. Besides, Skrillex, Four Tet and Fred again are being added to the schedule. But wait, thats not cool enough. Go try to make those decisions yourself and not ruffle any feathers and egos. Most people crumble under the pressure so dont act as if its the flick of a switch to move an artist around.

Imagine waiting three+ fucking years to see Frank headline and then he pulls this shit. What a dickhead.

Blink were always gonna be the obvious act to step up and a couple of years ago in the Coachella of old they would’ve been headlining outright anyway so here’s hoping they put on a good show.

Why do you write every post in the style of an angry hotel owner shouting at a complaining guest?

You always come across as so over the top and to be honest rude to anyone that questions anything. Even going as far to saying that the guys in the VLOG didn't do it right because they didn't 'find the secret bars'. It's every year, you get so wound up over a festival. That the majority of people on this forum will never attend and have no interest in attending. Why do yo care so much what other people think. If YOU enjoy it, awesome.

I have people critiquing me every year of how much I spend on a Glastonbury ticket and then critque me for who I see, who I don't see, the same few people every year. They have no interest in going, have not watched any footage outside of 1 or 2 songs of their favourite artist on YouTube. So I ignore them and go about my day. You are fighting people on the other side of the world, on an internet forum. Give it up.

Not sure any of us give a fuck to be honest.

Well may I ask who you expected to see headline Coachella at short notice?  Sydney Opera House perhaps?  The Hanging Gardens of Babylon?  Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plain......

There's a definite tone to your posts when it comes to criticizing artists from certain genres. I wonder why that might be? You do seem delighted that Blink 182 have replaced Frank Ocean. Interesting. 

[a6l6e6x]

Blink over Frank is a major upgrade realistically until you consider blink played weekend 1 on some random slot

 are they going to offer any refunds since losing a headliner last minute is a major change to what was sold

[CaledonianGonzo]

Blink 182 are just about big enough and it's the right chess move on the part of the organisers. However, it is still some of the worst music ever made.
