Part of me is sort of doubtful Yeat and Ice Spice are second liners. I guess Ice Spice would be a similar thing to Cardi B in 2018, but then again someone like Lil Nas X was billed third line in 2020. Could very realistically be underestimating the hype for both and of course hard to predict a year away. Share lots of similar predictions though and always interested in checking out the names I don't know off your mocks!
Lil Nas X in 2020 had OTR the previous year but he still wasn't a significant star overall at that point, and seemed to already be fading a bit. Montero came out 2021 and established him as an actual significant act. They would have to be expecting some sort of hit record like Cardi had coming up.
the new Ice Spice song with Nicki Minaj is already dropping on the charts but still did respectably. She's billed #8 at GovBall behind Metro Boomin right now; end of the second line doesn't seem that unreasonable tbh.
Coachella: Prince Outdoor: Basement Jaxx Sahara: Daft Punk Mojave: Soulwax Insomniac: Chemical Bros (DJ set) Gobi: Todd Terje and the Olsens Sonora: black midi
Yuma: Nicolas Jaar
Heineken House: The Roots and De La Soul
If I do it again tomorrow I'll probably have some different answers
Iron Maiden 10.4 Korn/Gojira 10.5 Slayer day @ Aftershock 10.10 California Deathfest 2024 Carcass/Crypta/Harm's Way/Hatebreed 10.15 Testament/Kreator/Posessed 10.26 David Gilmour 10.30 King Gizzard 11.3 The Blood Brothers 11.8 Blood Incantation 11.12 Mayhem 11.21 Interpol & The Walkmen 11.23 70K Tons Of Metal 2025 Maryland Deathfest 2025
I also have Nicolas Jaar included in my long lists but on a different tent.
I always admire and love close to reality TME’s past works so it was the sign. When is the pre-presale? I am fine and ready if I eventually going back there not for the music and that friend, Coachella who unfriended me - it will be for the IG, food, famous celebrity (guests) hunting/stalkings/sightings lol and traditional walkthrough & chasing sunsets at the desert.

maybe I shouldn't ask, but... Coachella unfriended you?
Is Haruomi Hosono still playing? That would be a legendary international booking that I could get down with. The show he did in LA with Mac Demarco brought on as a guest years back was awesome!
I seriously considered putting him on here but I think he's just too old at this point unfortunately.
Justice and Gesaffelstein in the same day would be pretty insane.
Also, from watching the Mike Dean livestream at Rolling Loud, where he wore an aluminum foil blanket and noodled prog rock sounds on the keys while smoking a blunt, I'd love to see it.
Assuming it's not, but would love it if DJ Hanzel was Owen Wilson's character from Zoolander.
That lineup is def not my jam aside from the headliners, but the only things I'd call out as majorly off to me are Zach Bryan and Karol G. Bryan just ain't gonna sub this festival like that, especially not for Rage (another act that seemingly chose their opener in 2020, and I expect will again next year), and RTTD makes no sense for Karol G, an act who just played in 2022. The whole idea of "returning to the desert" implies the act has been away for awhile; if she plays (which wouldn't surprise me at all) she'd be somewhere on the second line. Otherwise seems generally reasonable.
I dunno, like I've mentioned before I don't think there are any set rules for what RTTD has to be, besides just being a fourth headliner basically. Karol G coming back again is pretty soon but she's also blown up a lot since then.
I thought about Rage picking their opener again but I struggled to come up with names big enough that weren't RTJ since I'm not sure Coachella would be too keen on repeating RTJ again, if RTJ5 is even on the horizon. Originally I was going to put Deftones third on that day and have them open for Rage with Zach playing before Deftones or after Rage but I scrapped that idea.

Yeah I mean, to be clear I don't think it's too soon for Karol to come back, I just find the "RTTD" branding odd for someone who played two years prior. That said they could also re-brand it; "Returning To The Desert" is inherently limiting in that at the least the act has to have played Coachella before.
J Balvin is who I'd peg to open for Rage, if he's not too big now. They brought back the rest of the big time international acts from 2019 this year (Bunny, Burna, Rosalia, Blackpink), he's due.

My assumption as well. Just came to mind because of the YMO drummer recently passing. Would be awesome to have the opportunity to see him and some assortment of his projects live.

I mentioned this in the previous page, but Tool or NIN seem like suitable subs that fit the "previously headlined but too small to headline now" mold that Gorillaz and Bjork played this year.

DJ Hanzel is Dillon Francis' "deep house" side project

Funny because if I did set times, I'd actually have Karol G close after Rage, who I also think is bigger than J Balvin at this point.

I'd replace Rihanna with Kate Bush and Zach Bryan with Strokes/QOTSA, Lips with Iggy and I think that's close. Nice touch with Secret Life. The undercard would bring to the desert for sure.

Muse or QOTSA
QOTSA couldn't sub and Muse coming back to Coachella would be lame as fuck.

QOTSA could absolutely sub given their billing at other festivals. lets remember that flume, lil baby, janelle monae, weezer(solange originally but still), haim etc.
that being said.. i actually think we get Paramore for a rock sub if it happens. or they appear as a surprise set

They both have history with Rage. And if you go by the whole headliner requesting a support act then it fits. We dont have to like who it is, but Muse being a bold font sub is a good move to please the "rock" crowd with a 75 min no bs set.
My GOATs or most favorite Coachella year/acts/per day/tent/stage/musical moments change every year or whenever I tried to do this exercise of ranking them all. Not sure when was the last time I did this but looking at the set times history and the very few pictures & videos I took using my tiny canon camera and really awesome “dumb Nokia phone” at that time in my first 2006 Coachella on a Saturday. I can still vividly remember that most of the time I can count with my fingers or eyes just approximately how many were there watching those sets intently/keenly without any devices on their hands. I was able to see every single act in each stage/tent from opening past 12 noon thru just before sunset. It does not need to be (almost) full set or it could be the few first or last songs for them to make it in my GOAT or most favorite lists at Coachella. As if it was only yesterday, that I was upfront for Rob Dickinson @ Mojave and he looked at me straight in my eyes and gave me a nod & huge smile. Not even a huge fan of him. Then starting from the Animal Collective set I had to distinguish and select the don’t care, good, better and best as to which side of history I should be at through the last act who played that night.

Latto and GloRilla being 3rd liners makes me feel Ice Spice will be billed in that same area unless she consistently makes big noise leading into next year.
Paramore's 20 year anniversary is next year so I really hope they finally get booked. They are heavy touring This Is Why this year. But next year can be a majority AWKIF, Riot!, Brand New Eyes set

Ur smoking crack if you don't think Ice Spice isn't gonna headline Coachella within the next three years
