Coachella lineup announced

RS151862 · January 2015

No PJ but not really surprsed...

mwplum · January 2015

Worst headliners in years! How is AC/DC remotely relevant for the Coachella demographic? And Jack White, while noble, headlined just about every other festival last year.

BrainofBGA · January 2015

Good to see quite a few Aussies on the bill!

derbydave · January 2015

A few good acts on there, but none that I would travel to see!!!
Pretty weak headliners for one of the supposed premier festivals.

I'd go to see Jack White, Interpol, Florence & The Machine, Alabama Shakes, St. Vincent & The War On Drugs.
I'm even gonna be in Vegas for a convention during the week between the 2 festival weekends,
but with the weak headliners, it's really not worth the ticket price!!

eeriepadave · January 2015

yeah this is usually/probably the best US festival, IMO. But i'm with everyone else, line-ups and especially the headliners are pretty week.

steeler4life · January 2015

I would go if it were free, but I wouldn't pay $250+ for a single ticket when I could buy tickets to see each band/artist individually for a better experience and better price.
This lineup gets a C+

Get_Right · January 2015

I like the line up.

pjsteelerfan · January 2015

Any other festivals announced yet that PJ are not playing?

FrankieG · January 2015

Not a fan of this lineup. I was debating about taking a chance and booking everything for this festival before the lineup was released but I;m glad I waited..

With a new My Morning Jacket album coming out soon...
I'm thinking the Forecastle Festival in Louisville will be a good one this year!!

jjflash · January 2015

Nice to see the next season of festival lineups start rolling out. The Saturday(s) lineup looks really good :-\" Gotta agree w/ others the headliners and second billers for the overall festival don't full on rattle the cage.

coco butter · January 2015

Not that I believe it will happen (especially after hearing last year they were a sure thing) but any rumors of PJ at Lollapalooza in Chicago this year? If they are only going to play a handful of dates and most of them are Festivals as people on the board are predicting in 2015... I see Lolla as a big possibility.

Underwhelming headliners, very good undercards. AC/DC wtf.

kasedoug · April 2015

I caught some of the encore of the War on Drugs set, very nice!
I'm definitely staying up late to catch Jack White's set tonight!!

eeriepadave · April 2015

Caught Royal Blood earlier today, they killed it. Saw some of Benjamin Booker's set. Looking forward to Run The Jewels, Jungle, Bad Religion, Father John Misty and Jack White later ton

RobbyD462 · April 2015

Been really enjoying this webcast

Great seeing bands I don't know a lot about and some that I'll be seeing this summer at my festival

eeriepadave · April 2015

i caught most of the bands i wanted to see. Missed most of Benjamin Booker though cause i was on the phone. Father John Misty was interesting. Some of the songs I was just not feeling and made me want to go to bed, but some of his stuff was decent. I liked the last song he played a lot and also the cover he did when he brought that woman on stage and serenade her with teddy bears, balloons and those women wearing barely anything. Royal Blood and Run The Jewels were the best i thought.

kasedoug · April 2015

Lot of good sets live in person. Favorites for me were: Royal Blood, Florence + The Machine, AC/DC, Jack White, Run The Jewels, Alabama Shakes, Tame Impala, War on Drugs, Benjamin Booker, Alt-J, Jenny Lewis, and St. Vincent.
Looking forward to catching the weekend 2 action in the comfort of my brother's home on AXS TV.

JH6056 · April 2015

Kasedoug you saw many of the bands I'd have wanted to see. Over on the Coachella msg board, St. Vincent was one of the only acts that just about everyone had in their top 5 from Weekend 1. I watched some of Tame Impala's set online... gotta say I don't get it, but glad you (and so many others) enjoyed it!

What's Jenny Lewis playing now? I've seen her years ago, she was really good. And I thought Jack White's set was fantastic!

kasedoug · April 2015

I had seen parts of Tame Impala's sets at other festivals but I think playing before AC/DC on the main stage, to a big crowd, they really stepped up to the moment and delivered. Not super familiar with St. Vincent but it was a really good set. The lighting and production was great.
Jenny Lewis is playing behind a new solo album but she brought out Blake Sennett to play some Rilo Kiley stuff and also the Haim sisters to play a brand new song.
Of the sets mentioned above, I watched them all from start to finish expect for Run the Jewels and Benjamin Booker. RTJ was absolutely raucous. I was really impressed for a rap set. Really wanted to get a good spot for alt-J and started to make my way out of RTJ's crowd but stopped dead in my tracks when they brought out Zack de la Rocha for his guest spot on "Close Your Eyes..." Caught the last part of Benjamin Booker's set and thought he was great. Wish I hadn't stopped at Bad Religion after Royal Blood. I've seen BR plenty and now wish I would have seen more of Booker.
Jack White was definitely fired up and played a good set. I saw his set at Bonnaroo last summer so that one's tough to top for me, but I was glad to see him play "That Black Bat Licorice" and "Would You Fight For My Love?" which he didn't play at the Fonda or 'Roo last summer. Wish I could sneak back out there on Saturday night to catch his set again.

eeriepadave · January 2016

impressive if it was real!

kasedoug · January 2016

Ha. Saw somebody post this the other day. First off, the dates are wrong for this year. Also, I love that Radiohead was bumped down to the 2nd line after being a top billed headliner twice before. Coldplay have headlined before as well and Jack White sure took a dive to the 3rd line.

Looking forward to the real lineup reveal in the next few days.

JH6056 · January 2016

Dammit I almost dropped my computer when I saw Talking Heads!!! Figured out pretty quick it was fake though, although there are some good "if only's" on there...

SmallestOceans · January 2016

Welp, won't be going to that
