Wondering if Brent Faiyaz winds up booked next year as a sub. He was the one who was supposed to sub for Frank, before he/his team requested that they don't have another R&B act open for him and instead requested that Bjork open for him instead.
Lol on RATM set list. There would be some political shenanigans too by the Rage fans at the campsite. lmao
Googled Green Day recent set lists. 21-23 songs on festival settings, not bad. They are not The Cure (super ready again for their 50 songs set list lol).
I can also see Muse agreeing to sub for RATM (if and when).
Then on 2025, Radiohead taking Portishead with them (we might need another head , Talking something lol) for another epic back to back to back performances that will involve both Radiohead and Portishead.
Green Day normally plays 2 1/2+ on their own so them just slimming down the show to an hour 50 is what you get.
2025:
Radiohead Taylor Swift TBD
Difference with Green Day vs Rage is that one tours all the time and the other hadnt in over a decade. Same goes for Blink.
And Blink started their tour tonight and theres only a handful of extra songs that didnt get played between both Coachella weekends.

Had a whole side convo with travelfan about this haha. He’s playing the Fox in Oakland…that’s end of second line at best. I can’t envision a world where a sub at coachella isn’t at least playing the Greek or Bill Graham.
But now I see he’s also playing the Masonic in SF too, so that makes more sense. Still hard to believe he was ever a sub. I think he’s a #3-4 on his day or so though. Coachella subs have to be playing at least 8k cap venues, and after this year I think they’ll generally be arena acts.
Brent isn't subbing unless he has a CTRL level album pop up before line up drop lol But I thought he was a lock this year, so I would hope he's on next year. Last couple names of 2nd line.
got an ad today for a remix of a song by new Kpop girl group XG with Jackson Wang & Ciara; it looks like they're also pretty heavily associated with 88rising and are pretty clearly trying to appeal to a more Western audience (they sing exclusively in English and already have a remix of a song with Rico Nasty). don't think they're more than a midcard act (for now) but that specific combination of associations makes me think they might be on GV's radar.

We talm bourbon Brent fiyaz? He got good music pretty sure my gf would leave me for him but idek blam her for thay tnh bro good looming asl
Green Day doing American Idiot front to back >>> Rage doing the same set from a decade ago but it’s in an election year so we get a different 2 min rant from Zack
American Idiot was Green Day’s Sing the Sorrow for me. Having to hear that shit every time I turned on madden for a year was rough. If all four members of rage had to play sitting because they all tore their acl’s simultaneously, I’d still rather see them booked.

Finally listened to the new Jesse Ware album and it would be a damn shame if they don't grab her next year. So good. I know the whole "her mom told her to quit music after the disastrous coachella set" thing, but A) she seemed to have a great time in 2013, and B) if you read her quotes, that whole tour was a disaster for her. She was upset the entire time because she couldn't have her daughter on the tour, she lost money on the tour, her album wasn't connecting with people, etc. Coachella was just the last straw in a miserable time in her life.
If they gave her more say over her set time so she doesn't end up conflicting with a Cardi B type again, it's not that hard for me to envision her agreeing to play, especially given the reception of her last two albums. And 2018 had particularly weird crowds because of Beyonce being announced well in advance of sales.
Wrapping up the big names of my mock before diving into the filler and have a few crowd sourced questions for you:
1. Playboi Carti - is GV touching him right now? I am trying to pick between Playboi Carti or Lil Uzi Vert in a spot. For the "feel" of the night Playboi Carti is by the far better option, but then again not sure GV is touching him with a ten foot pole - vs Lil Uzi Vert who is primed.
2. If I threw three hardcore bands back to back to back in the Sonora to end the week against a giant popstar on the main, enough people showing up to that party or is it a failed opportunity that is better left empty?
3. Yuma - I know what you all want, who on the 3rd/4th lines are we stuck with that are typical Sound retreads that are wasted opportunities?

Uzi put a gun to his ex’s stomach. Not touching Carti but touching Uzi would make zero sense

Oh geez lol. The current crop of guys is such a mess. No wonder GV doubled down on the rap girlies this year.
With Snoop Dogg having two shows at the Hollywood Bowl called to celebrate 30th Anniversary of Doggystyle with friends and the show produced by Dr. Dre and with 50 Cent announcing his Get Rich or Die Tryin’ Anniversary Tour, maybe Coachella reaches back for some legacy rap acts? Throw guys like 50 Cent and Lil Wayne on the poster and have the Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg be listed as RTTD.

1. Probably neither tbh. They'll probably go in a different direction.
2. Better left empty IMO, they've been doing that every year and I don't see it changing. Even if it did, I highly doubt they'd go b2b2b without any variety.
Fiyaz's tour sold out insanely fast, so if he keeps that momentum up, can see him on the second line for sure.
I definitely think he’s second line. One of those acts too where I think his draw at Coachella where people are already going would be bigger than solo - if that makes sense - think his Coachella crowd would be enormous.

His last album was released back in July 2022 though so come 2024 it will be over 1.5 years old already. Might be an exception regarding the circumstances from this year's lineup but wouldn't be shocked if they instead used the 2nd line space on something more fresh.
