With Pear Jam announcing two headlining spots for the summer and tour for a new album also expected in 2024…what if??? Would not be mad…would be a great headliner IMO.
Pearl Jam rumored to have a u.s spring tour and bottlerock is what theyre headlining. That tracks since theyre a LN act.
Yeah if you follow their fan forums they are supposedly playing Vegas and Los Angeles in May…..

they've already got two LA dates booked and appear to be at BottleRock
Frank Weekend One was amazing and I will die on that hill, history will absolve me! And I’m not a Frank Stan like that either.
I'm with you on that hill
i think most people who weren’t deranged Frank fans who went solely for him and camped at the main all day are on that hill with us. Weyes Blood -> Bjork -> Frank is a pretty unreal stretch of vocalists too.
After last year’s more adventurous offerings, LDR, Dua, and Tyler would be very safe, uninteresting choices.
Who would be interesting for you?
After last year, I’m more interested in the subs since they pulled “Coachella Legacy Headliners” 2/3 sub spots. And tbh, I wasn’t interested in the 2023 headliners outside of Frank, but find the choices to be interesting.
I’m selfish and want to see Rage or a reunited Talking Heads. Both seem unrealistic as of now.
Continuing with my never gonna happen delusional Coachella fantasies…just imagine…if you will…Annie Lenox sub headlining…..and belting out Why…fuck my drag!! That would be the moment of the festival!!!
Kanye & Ty$ “going on tour” in case Paul Tollett wants to Charlie Brown the football for a 3rd time
I could see him trying to get Kanye as a late announcement, that way it's a non risk if he doesn't show up lol
Yes, the correct way to describe an artist with a history of erratic behavior and mental illness who can't last five minutes of an interview without professing his admiration for Nazis is "non-risk."
What is always impressive about Coachella is looking at the lineup vs other major US festivals and being blown away by the alternate direction they take. Dua, LDR, and Tyler doesn't scream unique or original. It screams underwhelming and par for the festival course. I like all these artists, but LDR is a beautiful yawn fest. Dua will be everywhere. Tyler is fantastic, but is definitely much bigger in California and doesn't seem like he fits with the direction the last few years have been trending with hugely popular international pop artists as headliners...or moody/flakey artists who cancel at the last minute or screw over their fans with an uninspired phoned in headlining set that fans are still trying to justify months later.
LDR and Fred Again share the same night for the UK Reading-Leeds festival and I think he is closing. No poster yet, just a list of 10 names and some day splits.
Seems like more of a logistical thing. When they announced headliners Lana was billed at the front. Check their IG/UK press releases.

Artistic merit aside, LDR / Dua / Tyler are the Topline equivalent of a French Vanilla Iced Coffee. Who, over the age of 20, is a fan of any of these artists and *haven't* seen them in the past 5 years?

I think there's some great myth of the "Coachella headliner" still. It's my favorite festival on the planet, but let's not act like they haven't whiffed on some headliner bookings the last few years. Multiple Kanye fiascos, SHM getting announced to tumble weeds and thus creating RTTD (but still getting promoted back to HL!), they probably got Harry Styles and Ariana Grande as they were a little bit past cultural peak relevance, Tame Impala is/was everywhere, Childish Gambino has aged poorly, Frank Ocean was a great booking but total fiasco, etc.
I'm not a huge fan of any of the three artists you mentioned, but the first show of Dua Lipa's next era, an LDR victory lap, and giving Tyler his biggest stage ever doesn't sound too "underwhelming" to me vs. some of the other recent HLer's.

Fred is bigger in the UK than Lana. But in California (& US), Lana is the bigger act. Not a hot take, just an observation. Acts are usually bigger in their home nation
