Hit on a lot of the acts I'd have on my mock (and really nice background!). A few thoughts:
Disclosure repeating as a #3? Not impossible, but seems unlikely. I think you've got Grimes and King Gizzard overbilled, and Hot Chip underbilled. And man, I haven't thought about London Grammar in ages...I have no idea where they'd end up, so I suppose I can't argue. Otherwise looks good on first glance!
Saw FKA’s tour kickoff yesterday. I hope Coachella books her and supports the whole production, it was pretty breathtaking.
What time did she go on? Was there an opener? I'm going tonight!
There's no opener - a few weird things happen around 8pm and she comes out at 845-850ish, but she doesn't start singing until 9pm. Just make sure you're there by 830pm . DM me your thoughts after would love to chat about it.

did she play new music?
I'm pretty familiar with most of her tracks on Spotify and there were 4-5 songs that I didn't recognize. One of them the audience LOVED, probably going to be the Two Weeks of LP2. She also played Cellophane and Fu** Sleep.

I know we’re getting into kind of spoilery territory here or whatever, but was there a new production or was it pretty similar to her 2016 shows?

Other than her preference of having 4 backup dancers around her, it's completely different. I can give more detail in DM or in spoiler quotes if you guys want.
Pretty solid, but part of me wonders if they're going to continue and double down on Latin, K-Pop acts, and J-Pop next year as implied in this mock. In some ways I find some of the choices on this ambitious / interesting in that regard. Not sure if I'm alone.
I see them continuing to book them. International acts all had pretty great turnouts and it keeps things interesting. I don't see Coachella being the "international" music festival but I see them continuing to book it they way they do obscure electronic artists.

That FKA Twigs was amazing. I see her closing the outdoor more than being on the main. But new music sound amazing. Can’t wait to hear studio quality. Palace isn’t the best place to pick up microphones.
Re: the mock
Friday would be boring for me (1st time ever) but Saturday and Sunday are great

This is probably just good enough to get me to hold onto presales. But the actual undercard is always better for me than the mock undercards, and a few more small names on Friday and Saturday would go a long way. Sunday is great.
*breathes in* testpilot, Maetrik, Solomun, Sasha & John Digweed, Lost Souls of Saturn, Alan Fitzpatrick, Wajatta, Peggy Gou, Paco Osuna, Pan-Pot, Nicola Cruz, Solardo, Kollektiv Turmstrasse, Purple Disco Machine, ANNA, Enrico Sangiuliano, Nastia, The 2 Bears, Hodor, Cristoph, Luttrell, park hye jin, Krystal Klear, J-E-T-S, Rebekah, Or:la, Kampire, DJ Seinfeld, SAMA’, Courtesy and Anastasia Kristensen.
There’s some solid names here, but I would be disappointed with the vast majority tbh.
Did anyone catch Seinfeld at in the DoLab this year?
Edit: a few other Yuma names I think could be there - Mall Grab, Helena Hauff, Octa Octa, Jayda G, Bicep, Leon Vynehall, Denis Sulta, Sofia Kourtesis, Baltra, Floorplan

You want to sub out boring edm with other boring edm? We always get a couple of rare/good electronic acts and then they book some shit that attracts a crowd. I don’t see the point in bickering over swapping shit for piss.
I don't see how anybody could put Eric Prydz holographic EPIC sets on the same "boring" level as Zedd or DJ Snake playing the festival 3 times in 5 years, but you're more than welcome to feel that way.
