The actual quote from SecondSet at IORR...
I've been tipped that some have taken my words here some weeks or months back as an indication that the Stones were playing Coachella, and run way too far in the wrong direction with a similar sort of ball as they have mistaken in the past.
As I thought was clear at the time, Coachella was NOT the festival to which I was referring. I'm not going to name the other festival from the same promoter in the same location, but it should be quite obvious. While I certainly can't say for sure that the Stones won't risk Valley Fever again by playing either festival this year, I'd be rather surprised if they did so after booking two stadium shows in LA and three more in Vegas, Phoenix, and the Bay. Perhaps Mick will sit-in with a younger, more of-the-moment, probably-female artist of the sort who sounds likely to headline. Hi Barbie?
As for that other festival, I was informed that it was in the works by a well-placed source, but can't guarantee that something hasn't changed in the intervening months.
So I'm assuming he's talking about Desert Trip but the timing of all this seems kinda off. Supposedly they were working on another edition of Desert Trip that was going to include Plant + Page, Springsteen and others which maybe the Stones would've been apart of too. If that's the case and Desert Trip was happening again this year then that would probably be announced before the Stones' July SoFi dates happen which I think would complicate things. Sure, their SoFi dates have a similar implication towards Coachella too but I would imagine those two shows would have a much bigger impact on Desert Trip than Coachella considering their audiences.
And also this part from what he said, "can't guarantee that something hasn't changed in the intervening months", I'll just say that this may have been the case here.
