something def went super wrong in the past 7-8 days, but also dont think PT or anyone at GV is much stressed about it just another year, same old same old
there is this interview with PT recently, this past years SXSW in Sydney I think where he explains his Coachella booking process and pretty much says that he books later than anyone else, wants to wait until super last minute, to be sure that he has the most current and hot names, doesnt want to miss something by confirming everything 8-10 months in advance
so from reading that, looks like he keeps some slots opened until like mid Decem, maybe even one of the headliners....
Waiting until the last minute is how you end up with headliners going Houdini.

This kinda explains why the “April gap” is so common for major touring artists, even when a lot of em aren’t ultimately booked for Coachella. Wouldn’t be surprised if agents really told their clients “look, PT doesn’t book Coachella until last minute so if you wanna do it ya gotta keep April free in case he calls you up in late Dec”
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

I used to be friendly with Incubus’s old manager Steve Rennie and he would always try to keep April open on their touring schedule each year in case Coachella was interested. Paul never offered them a slot but they held out hope just in case, at least in the mid-2000s through the early 2010’s. So there are definitely some artists that do this lol

Pardon me while I burst into flames, I’ve had enough of GV and Paul Tollet’s mindless games (give us the lineup)

That's partially wholesome and partially sad.
If Shakira headlines she should require Incubus to be her sub.

I was obsessed middle school/ high school. Science, Make Yourself, Morning View & ACLOTM was my fav 4 album run for the longest.

Has Incubus ever played? That would be a fun act. Kinda sad if they always held out and never got the call. I wonder how many other artists get the PT cold shoulder.

Okay I'll say it: it's time for a Coachella cum leak, even if its just a dribble. GV can only give us blue balls so many times before someone blows a load so messy that it scrambles the lineup placements.

No, 20 years ago Paul had a hard on against booking bands people liked.

Same! Such a great 4 album run. One of the first bands I saw live back then.

Nope, never. Would make for a fun nostalgic set these days. Make it happen Paul.

It will not be impossible now since so many craps and especially Blink-182 happened over the last few years. But they (Incubus) will be at best 3rd or 4th line. Amusing to see that then more Coachell’sh type of artists, Interpol and Mars Volta being billed at 3rd or 4th lines even at Bonnaroo these days. You just need spectacular streaming numbers to be at top of it for Coachella lol.

feels like Paul has Incubus squarely in the buttrock-do not book category.

I just don't want the lineup to drop tomorrow because that's my one in office day this week and I don't know if I can contain myself once it drops while I'm at work
