Supernintendo Chalmers Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 The Friday bill is very strong but I don't know what I'd do with myself on the Saturday and Sunday. Probably update my Instagram or something. I do like it when the Coachella lineup is released, though. Always seems to ignite festival fever and hopefully the floodgates will open for all other festival lineup announcements now. Those RATM sets are gonna be incredible.

Agreed, Friday is epic but the other two days not so much. Maybe that's because we're old though 😉 (see other thread for reference) To be honest, they could print the words "Rage Against the Machine" on top of a load of dross and I would still totally lose my shit.

Yeah gotta imagine he’s upped his live show somewhat (and hopefully decided to play more from Channel Orange/his previous projects) as the idea of his last show topping the bill at Coachella seems like a train wreck waiting to happen. Hope this means the new album is coming in the first quarter of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy101 Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Remember in 2013 when a Coachella headliner played in the John Peel tent? That was an odd turn of events (and absolutely banging set). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyoung Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Lots of v good stuff at Coachella imo. Of course it has become an easy target for people who like to say the same thing 7327 times ("instagram blah blah blah") but there's some undeniably strong acts on that lineup. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, despite holding on by my 42 year old fingertips, there comes a point in time when the stark realisation kicks in that you are no longer the target audience! Those Rage shows are going to be incendiary, particularly after what's been going on politically in the US recently and especially in the last 24 hours.

cdm22 Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Could Danny Elfman be the 'out of left field' act that was mentioned a while ago? Thought that could be a possibility after seeing his announcement earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh right...WTF is that about? I know this isn't the place for this, but Jesus Fucking Christ. When do you reckon they're going to announce any potential UK shows? Is that even likely...?

Various sources (including festival bookers/organisers) are suggesting no european shows until 2021. Fully expect Download and Glastonbury to be seriously in the frame then, plus maybe a one-off MK Bowl show or something. Let's see if they haven't been arrested by then...

If they’re in Europe next year I could see Download and Reading both throwing some serious cash at them. Good thing is that they don’t seem to be in it for the money so Glasto has as much chance as anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download would be favourites cos of the $$$ but I'm sure they'd prefer to get them on a UK exclusive. But as you say, money doesn't necessarily seem to be the determining factor with Rage. They're absolutely made for that Pyramid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Tfw you're enough of a sad case to recognise the name Hatsune Miku and know where it's from, but not enough of a sad case to understand how the fuck it is on a Coachella lineup.

That was for A Nightmare before Christmas live rather than a set taking in all of his film scores though and did sell two nights at Wembley arena on the same tour. Would be excellent if he was there though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Edinburgh it was a Danny Elfman at the Movies thing with the RSNO - though looking at it he was just 'appearing' at it rather than conducting the whole affair. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt42 Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) The lineup is BANGING. We don’t really get much crossover anymore but Coachella lineups always look stronger in retrospect. I reckon a lot of that lower bill will be taking huge slots in the future. Also a good way to know who to keep your eye on this summer.
