“All the ethnic diverse lineups ruined Coachella and it needs to be saved by some 80 year old white dudes. Let’s show these kids some REAL MUSIC.” - ferrante99 and other out-of-touch losers.
Headline slots should be given based on merit , not based on activist agenda.
When it comes to acts/bands, we can divide them into 4 tiers/classes.
First class - top of the line premium quality
Macca - stones - u2 - Madonna - Elton Eagles
If can pay enough $ to reunite them The police - dire straits - the smiths - abba - led zep
Second class : Coldplay- muse - Radiohead - rhcp - Harry - swift -rod Stewart , sting ,Duran Duran , cure , Depeche Mode etc….
Third class : Metallica , guns roses , jay z , Beyoncé , Dre , Lana del Rey , Florence machine , etc
Fourth class : every body else.
In conclusion, you have to always try to lure top of the line acts every year if you want to avoid cheapening your brand , very simple
Taylor Swift must be out because she'll be busy gettin' ready go on her European tour in Europe.
It’s weird how the Bonnaroo thread gets endless shitposting and the Coachella thread gets an endless parade of professional mocks followed by the worst posts you’ve ever seen in your life. Every rose has its thorn though or whatever Gene Simmons said.

There was a time back in the day where this thread was the best place on the board to talk about new music.
what the fuck does the second part of this even mean. "diversity of musical creativity"
lmfao
Yeah obviously there’s no point in arguing with this guy but the fact that Coachella is booking more non-American artists like Peso Pluma or Karol G or whoever shows they’re increasingly committed to booking a wider array of different types of music lol!
You are consuming mainstream corporatized music. It’s formulaic and predictable. But you are accepting of this because the people performing it come from diverse backgrounds so you will eat it up and defend it as that is what you find virtuous.
What’s insane about it? It’s actually good to reflect on how things have changed. Coachella boards in 2012 would make fun of the corporatized promotion of EDM and how every EDM artist sounded the same. None of them were pushing musical boundaries, rather cashing in on industry trends. But now when we get the same corporatized push of Latin dance music, it’s taboo to criticize the bookings because they are of a different demographic.

I am still out here fighting this battle just on Reddit now!!

The Coachella boards were 80% morons tho
I like to think they were smarter than the people on Reddit and Discord but… no, probably not.

Checking in from the Safari side of life. Zero interest in the potential assumed headliners. Sad thing i can't think of any headliners i would be stoked for. Oh well still going to go. Hopefully the full line up will be of interest.

oh thanks! I thought I was just listening to the hampsterdance song on repeat but now I know better.
Instead of our normal predictions game, can we force these eggheads to submit their lineup predictions Hunger Games-style where one winner survives and all others get the banhammer?
Can someone ask the old lady from Egypt what she thinks of Lana Del Rey headlining Coachella so we can know whether the festival has redeemed its reputation as a laughingstock worldwide
