I was at the show last night (at least for about an hour). I paid $18 for my ticket and the show was exactly worth that much lol. I had mixed feelings about his live show at Coachella two years ago, and this confirmed that it’s not for me. I also think he’s just so cringey. Regardless, some parts of the show was still fun and the production/sound was decent.
i can't see R.E.M. doing festivals but i bet they would have a really successful arena tour if they reunited (core demographic has more than enough disposable income)
So Coachella sold 161K/250K possible? I’m sure they made a profit but that doesn’t seem promising. I’m sure a knockout lineup next year moves that to 200K but another slow lineup we may have to have conversations if it gets down to 140K
maybe they should have paid Swift(x2) the $50m she wanted.
REM has declined Coachella multiple times and the problem isnt money. It might make more sense at Stagecoach or Cruel World anyways, maybe some branding tweaks.
The minute you start suggesting REM at Stagecoach is when family intervenes and puts you on a mental health hold.

I thought the Challenger score was... not good. In fact when the credits played I thought someone was spoofing NIN until I googled it. (Not that Trent & Atticus live wouldn't have a solid chance at being really good)
i definitely could see Chappell Roan being a rare 2 year in a row booking. just seeing the crowds shes pulling at other festivals as well as the fact that she has another album on the way prob coming out early next year it just makes sense

How high do you put her then. Is she a sub? If all this keeps up and she possibly gets a number 1 album on billboard almost a year after release then get a slew of grammy nominations then you likely have a Best New Artist winner on your hands.

If this trajectory continues, I could see her being a sub. Definitely seems like she could pack the Coachella Stage fairly well at this point
Yeah, Chappell is sub or headliner next year if she returns. She went from like 4 million monthly listeners on Spotify in April to over 20 million now. By the end of summer, she’s going to be a household name.
For those that like electronic music, just went to Sonar in Barcelona this weekend. What a great festival.
Charlotte de Witte’s Ovedrive on a massive stage was probably one of the most insane electronic sets I’ve been to in years.
Ela Minus & Richie Hawtins’ new shows were great and would be awesome to see on the fields, but not sure I see either of them making the lineup again next year.
VTSS absolutely crushed and needs to get booked. Yune Pinku sounded great live as well and would do well in the Sonora.

But you think theyre gonna give into that and book the one hot act? They didnt with Noah Kahan so why do it here. I think if they did book her again the smartest thing would be to just have her sub Olivia. You couldnt argue that Chappell is bigger in that respect.

Noah doesn’t really fit in with Coachella in 2024 though

Calm down y’all. Chappell is having a big moment but she is absolutely not a headliner, and if this year has taught the industry anything it’s the value of waiting to see if someone has lasting power (see: Ice Spice struggling to sell half the tix to a 2k cap venue now). GV used to wait for subs and headliners to really establish themselves. Maybe it’s impossible to truly establish oneself in today’s fractured music world but jumping into a flash in the pan that has played literally every fest this year is definitely not the answer. Who knows what would happen if her next album bombs.

I don't think she'll be on the 2025 lineup but to compare Chappelle Roan to a walking meme like Ice Spice wild. You don't need to be a 21 year old lesbian to know Chappell has "it" and will be an arena act/headliner for the immediate future.
Maybe the artist who spoke between songs last week about how fast her career is moving and its all too much right now and she wants to slow down a bit won't rush to put out a follow-up album in 6-9 months and headline the biggest music festival in the world in 10 months
I don’t see her headlining in 2025, but if she did return I think sub would be very realistic. I honestly think we’ll see her headlining plenty of fests in 2026.

Should have got Sexyy Red instead of Ice Spice. They let agent relations get in the way of the culture

Ok first off, i think she is a great talent....that being said...didn't she just have a mini melt down about her rise in fame? Like too much too fast...i see her taking a breath, before hitting the festival circuit again, and by 2026....she might be a sub at best?
Chappell Roan is great but I'm surprised that no one is also bringing up Sabrina Carpenter as someone who could return very fast. She was already popular (deserving of 2nd line on this year's poster imo), but she's gotten WAY more popular since Espresso came out + her Coachella set being very well received. Please Please Please is having movement too. If her upcoming album blows up like it's trending towards, she can easily be a sub in 2025. Or potentially a headliner in 2026 depending on how this next year shakes out. She already had the best Main stage performance on Friday this year.
If we're going off of Spotify, Sab Carp currently has 70 million monthly listeners to Chappell Roan's 20 million. I think Chappell will get there, she is THAT good in my opinion. But Sabrina is more seasoned in years, discography, and stage performance. She would make more sense for the rare back to back appearance and being boosted to sub immediately. And she's much closer to obtaining headliner status than Roan, at least for now. Give Chappell a couple years to show some lasting power, I believe that she will, but we have to see it first. I'm not a big fan of new artists, having a hot moment, being considered instant headliners nowadays lol
At least nobody is being called homophobic for saying Chappell cant headline next year like that one reddit user who harrassed everyone the other week.
