I’m not sure how R.E.M. would fit in today’s Coachella.
I dunno, seems like the perfect “reunite to play our festival and introduce your music to a new generation” band. REM’s music definitely connects directly through a lot of the sad-girl indie rock that’s big right now, so it’s not like they’d be that out of place. Would fit better with the current crowd than GnR did.
I see R.E.M. doing ACL as one of their first dates back over Coachella.
Not sure if this has been brought up yet but I bet Charli XCX will get booked for this, her new song with Christine and the Queens is excellent and she's got a guest-heavy album coming in the fall. Where on the poster would she be?
she should sub but end of the second line at lowest.
Bold prediction: BROCKHAMPTON ends up being a surprise sub like SZA and HAIM
I don’t find this that bold. They have a massive cult following and are releasing their 5th album. They’ve played a bunch of GV fests and are well renowned as a great live act.

I'll feel really happy for them if this ends up being the case. I've followed them since Sat 1 and saw them 5 times, 1st at a tiny 500 cap venue in sept 2017 then the last time at an 8000 cap arena in Oct 2018. They could definitely sub given their following now. if not then probably 3 or 4 on their day

I could definitely see it. GV seems to want to book at least one “new” sub in the last few year. Someone with a lot of buzz or hype, very new release, only recently made the jump to wide appeal.
One of our subs didn’t even show up last year, so I think we can only go up from here.

Also I'm pretty confident Flume will sub. GV has a solid relationship with him, seems on pace to be promoting a new record, EDM sub now in the realm of possibility after ODESZA.

I was pretty disappointed by Flume in 2016, but I really enjoyed his mixtape that he dropped earlier this year. I’d have some mixed feelings about seeing him on the lineup.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see BROCKHAMPTON billed highly on the lineup next year but I think their next album would need to be a pretty strong one for them to sub. As much as I wanted to like Iridescence, it didn’t have the same impact on me that the Saturation series did.
Even bolder prediction: my dream last night that TV on the Radio and Confidence Man made a collaborative album after a chance meeting in an airport will come true when their joint tour’s first stop is Coachella 2020.

Here's my mock of the first 3 lines, not particularly confident about the headliners but I have a feeling they'll end up booking Ye again. Also this is probably missing the few Yuma names that end up on the first few lines.
Chance the Rapper Vampire Weekend - A$AP Rocky - Marshmello - Grimes - Flying Lotus - Run the Jewels Stereolab - Alison Wonderland - Gunna - Banks - Dominic Fike - the Internet
Madonna Lana Del Rey - BROCKHAMPTON - the Chemical Brothers - the National - Lil Uzi Vert - ZHU Hot Chip - Rex Orange County - Rezz - Brandi Carlile - Megan Thee Stallion - Sky Ferreira
Kanye West Flume - Charli XCX - Logic - fka Twigs - Ozuna - Young Thug - Bastille Carly Rae Jepsen - Jai Paul - the Revivalists - Beast Coast - Lewis Capaldi - Whitney

I think y'all are overrating Charlie XCX a bit. She's playing the Wiltern, and while it's only been a month or so since it went on sale, it's not close to selling out. Maybe it will eventually, but she seems like an end of 2nd line act at best. Carly Rae would be 2nd line before she is, at least, based on touring.
And if it doesn't sell out, she's not getting on the 2nd line at all.

I should have my mock poster done in the next two weeks, but I too am going with this theory. I have both CRJ and Charlie as the first name on the third line. I can see both getting late second line treatment, but don’t see her getting prime placement. Both seem like a prime candidate for the main stage right before the sun sets.
Here's my mock of the first 3 lines, not particularly confident about the headliners but I have a feeling they'll end up booking Ye again. Also this is probably missing the few Yuma names that end up on the first few lines.

Looks good but The National number 6 is a bit low no?

I have them as 5th, but based on their Bonnaroo placement this year, I think they end up somewhere between 4th and 6th. Maybe in 2013 or 2017 they could have subbed, but I think they return somewhere in the middle of the second line.
She headlined before, and she would sub after that? Not sure. I think Björk wouldn’t play this again. I’d like to be proven wrong though
It wouldn’t be the first time an artist has demoted over time. Beck subbed after headlining, granted that was the first year. That was also over 10 years ago that she headlined and a ton has changed. I think if GV offered the right price it could happen
