Did you really check their channels to check if this might be real? 😂

 

It looked a lot like the poster I remembered, and down the list of bizzare things Elon Musk did, buying a top spot at a festival bill did not seem that outrageous. Amd it wont be the first time id learn from a lineup that someone famous is also flirting with music. So yeah, I went throughout the tremendous agony of... checking a website.

Nova Rock 2017 had a dj set by David Hasselhoff (The Hoff) quite big on the poster, right under the headliners and presented as a very special event.

I'd not be totally surprised about this kind of shit.

That wasn’t a dj set, it was a live set. His music career has always been huge in Germany & Austria (no idea why).

In some messages, on Twitter I think, Mike Shinoda said 2023 could be a great year with many things that the fans would like... Could we have Linkin Park back? The Foo Fighters are already back. Who knows for LP. Missing headliner at Rock Werchter and Mad Cool? It almost comes from nowhere, I know, but we don't have many ideas left for the missing headliners now...

Some links about that related by Linkin Park Live on Facebook (430k fans): 

News: In a series of Discord messages with fans, Mike Shinoda says that 2023 will be an exciting year, indicating Linkin Park's Meteora 20th anniversary will be a part of that excitement.

He also hinted at other "things that are of interest" to fans. bit.ly/LPExciting

I am just astonished that people ACTUALLY think that we might have Elon Musk as a major headliner... you guys have to be trolling...

Well it would be a tad unexpected. But yeah, I'd write this off as trolling.

wow! Maybe it's time for Elon Musk to set up a band 😁

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Someone in the Glastonbury chat has posted about a rumoured LCD Soundsystem/Jamie XX Summer tour. As the latter is already confirmed, I wonder if LCD could be the missing Saturday headliner?

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

Hmmm, there's also a suggestion it's a US tour. As you were everyone, very little to see here...

[Sparticus]

Munford and Sons in the states August 2023....they were on the bill for either 2020 or 2021?

[birchtree29]

In 2018 I remember they had a huge announcement in January 18 and a huge announcement in mid February so hopefully some announcement is coming before the end of the month.

Duff McKagan accidentally confirmed Glasto appearance while also saying that they will soon announce a bounch of other shows. https://vocaroo.com/1dkO7D2DtucJ

Does it make them more likely for MadCool? 

[Karlos12345]

Yes it does.

Could FNM retry to tour this year and headline Friday or Saturday?

Think we would‘ve heard of some gigs already if true. Too few festivals looking for a band of their size I think. Hellfest would have them f.e.

Hellfest has couple slots available. Maybe they are waiting FNM as well.

Yeah, they have like 3 bands to still be announced but none of them are FNM. There are way smaller bands.

Dunno if you knew but Mike has suffered from agoraphobia after Covid, however he seems to be over it now as he did a short run of Mr. Bungle shows lasts month, good on him. Still not sure there's gonna be time to get FNM together again and set up tours in time. I think Mike said in an interview they were a little unhappy with him for cancelling everything last time but hopefully that's just him being paranoid and they understand it was with good reason.

Or you could shorten that by simply saying, In Mike, the band have "faith, no more"

I would love that!

[Akujin]

With Rock Werchter announcing tommorrow, are we also likely to see an announcement?

[Archi]

It's possible. Announcement from Lolla Paris tomorrow, from Rock Werchter expected tomorrow, maybe an headliner is coming to drop a big tour. The question is to know which act it is...

Sadly, likely GnR. I’m actually ok with it, but Axl’s voice is a real turn off for me.

on another note: Mad Cool’s social media is terribly week compared to similar size events.
