Wonder if people will still think its the JT or Bieber year in the 2035 Rumors thread despite GV having a half dozen great opportunities to book each of them
Coachella is also picky enough to not let Radiohead and Gambino headline after having to beg Doja Cat and bribe Gwen Stefani.
def picky enough to not let Gambino be lined up as the headliner on May 14 2024. obvi Doja and Gwen were last minute, not a fair comparison
Doja and No Doubt also weren't repeat headliners so I'm not sure why they're looped in with a question about whether Gambino would return to headline again.

I don't think it's super likely that Gambino is headlining again, but I don't know that a repeat headliner is a disqualifier given that Doja played a high profile slot in 2022 and Tyler was touring the same 3 year old album.

But Doja still wasn't a headliner. GV will always want to promote subs or high profile acts to headliner. GV will continue to book acts touring outdated albums. The only repeat headliner they've booked in the last seven years was Rage Against The Machine, who were 13 years past their last time headlining and a reunion.
I definitely could see him headlining soon just maybe not 2025, but 2026 as I could see Chella wanting to grab one of his "last performances" if he is actually done after the new album later this year.
A lot of my friends and people my age who were in HS when he dropped Because the Internet and Kauai are all trying to see him. I have friends who never go to live shows who now must see him live.

Sure but they also missed 2 years. It's possible that they're going to continue that as some kind of new strategy, but I don't know that it would really make sense.
I'm not saying that Gambino is worth repeating, but given how this year panned out I'd find it hard to believe that they're not open minded.

Open minded to what? More underwhelming headliners?

Open minded to anyone who sells tickets? Regardless of if they've headlined before?
Honestly I think any A lister actor could move insane tix if they went on a tour: Zendaya, Selena Gomez, Brady Cooper, Guy that plays Wolverine.
None of these would move more Coachella passes than Lana, Tyler, Doja or No Doubt either.
And kinda funny to see you call them “A list” when you got one of their names wrong and couldn’t even think of the name of another.
Regardless, if the thought is this year’s headliners weren’t big enough to move tickets then booking Childish Gambino would just be repeating the same mistake, possibly even worse.

I really don’t think Childish Gambino is moving more tickets than Lana, Tyler, Doja or No Doubt these days.
What tickets are Doja Cat and No Doubt moving? No Doubt had a fun nostalgia set at a sparsely attended Coachella. Not sure what people are extrapolating from that.
I get that there are GV homers here and that's fine, but at a certain point it feels like it crosses over into satire.

Given that No Doubt had the biggest crowd of the weekend I think it’s fair to believe they did have a draw in terms of ticket sales.
