bad news; no line up for another week as it seems good news; around zero chance now that Doja will be third headliner
PT swinging hard now into all the different directions; Timberlake, Stones, Rhinanna, Tay, who know where else
I am pretty certain now HDD article was GV word by word, checking the pulse of fans waiting on the line up looks like even they were not sure the final poster is spectacular, so needed more time....
the only thing weird now is that Lana post, was she acting alone? or was GV also behind that, lets put something out while we work on something for 10 more days...
speculation or do u have a source that told u this?
for the record, his last major posted scoop was that the Primavera lineup would include LDR, Pulp, The National, Mistki, and Beth Gibbons (correct) and Kylie Minogue, La Femme, Future Islands, Jane's Addiction, and the Smile (incorrect). So 50% right on that, but I believe he was the only person who floated Beth Gibbons before the lineup was released. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

edit: or not lmao.
for the record; my line of business puts me in contact with a lot of people that work in booking agencies. in Europe. some of the acts share same agents for all markets, some have various people, different agencies etc. pretty much everything I put in here is either 100% confirmed OR what I believe will happen from what I hear. For example that post I had that Mars Volta will take a pretty big break in 2024/2025 was something I was told in September, after their show in NYC. And then they pop up on Roo line up 4 months after, so I guess plans sometimes change, or various offers come in that make artists change their minds.
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.

LOL, so crazy that the biggest festival in North America is scrambling for a headliner, although that's better than Post Malone or the RHCP fucking everything up.

Looking from artist / management point of view, think The Killers would except only RTTD or a sub for Rolling Stones. Cant picture them taking a sub slot to Lana or Doja or whoever else.
well, with The Killers on boston calling and that HDD hint i’m pretty confident they’ll be subbing or in the RTTD slot
I don’t think there is ever a year that The Killers don’t play some festival. And I don’t think the wording HDD used was a hint since The Killers weren’t mentioned in the expanded article.

Killers opening for the Stones would a dream come true

Was just thinking how the #1 headliners for Coachella and Bonnaroo in 2017 were Beyonce (replaced by Lady Gaga also a strong #1) and U2 playing the Joshua Tree. The next year it was Beyonce again and Eminem for 'Roo (shared by Coachella).
This year, unless Coachella gets an add, the #1s are Lana Del Rey and the 60+ year-old Red Hot Chili Peppers.
(I actually like Lana's music a lot and think she can headline a day, but as a #1 for a 120,000 person festival seems weak).

Coachella needs to get the Killers subbing for the Stones to restore credibility. For many years the festival has become a laughing stock , being labeled more of an instagram festival rather than a music festival . With the Killers subbing for the Stones as headliners , Coachella will finally restore its credibility. Killers subbing for the Stones is a must , even if it means dishing out 40 mill over 2 weekends . Macca saved Coachella back in 2009 from going into bankruptcy, now in 2024 it’s the Killers subbing for the Stones turn to save Coachella from being label a circus festival

I’d accept losing some undercard names for them to make this happen
I watched the Chris Lake / Fisher set on the livestream W2 after missing it W1 and I thought it looked pretty fun. Not as euphoric as Underworld but a little more organic than Calvin Harris, even though Fisher did quack all behind the sticks lol.

Hey, if anyone is needed a flight still go look at Southwest. I just nabbed 2 round trip tickets from Indy to San Diego for $400 total. That is HALF what they usually are.

I think you are severely underestimating Lana's draw. Her fanbase has grown immensely from her last full US tour (2019) and is as rabid as Swifites or Beyhive. She also is a critic darling, was on basically in top 10 of every 2023 AOTY list. The only active touring acts available that are bigger would be Stones or Taylor. I'm not a huge fan, but she's clearly a #1 get, except for the 2 other acts I mentioned.

Damn, just heard from a source why the lineup got delayed.
Headliners all picked their subs a few weeks ago but last weekend after the poster was done two of them changed their minds and want different subs. GV already booked their previous picks and signed the contracts so now they're trying to cancel the signed contracts and find new subs on short notice.
Sounds like a mess but when you give headliners complete control over subs it was bound to happen.

The Talking Heads heard Paramore’s rendition of “Burning Down the House” and decided they needed them to sub for them.
