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 GV will continue to book acts touring outdated albums.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.

I don't think doubting Gambino's draw is the same thing as being a GV homer.
Gambino fascinates me. Definition of a jack of all trades, master of none. Movie star - but he has never had a lead role in a movie (unless you count voicing Simba). TV star - supporting role on Communtiy and a lead role on a highly regarded, but niche, TV show. Music star - with like two hits.
His Coachella show was a fucking snoozefest and was the hardest headlining show I've ever had to get through, but my wife loved it. He's polarizing.

He’s the lead on Mr. And Mrs. Smith on Amazon that he’s currently promoting. Also, saying he was just a lead on Atlanta is disingenuous knowing he was also the creator of said show.

I disagree, with him being a movie star he's a household name.
Out of all those people my grandparents would know Glovers music the most.

Idk I just think the jump in fame from the biggest musican to even a B list actor is absolutely huge.
Household name? My parents have no idea who Donald Glover or Childish Gambino is.
Also your take on Zendaya, Selena Gomez and Brady Cooper is the hottest hottest take I’ve heard in a long time. That would be the end of Coachella lol.

ok most of what he said was totally wrong and out of touch but Selena Gomez would sell crazy tix if she ever did an arena tour. she would never headline or play coachella tho that ship has sailed

Zendaya would bring a bunch of fans but no where close to a headliner. People got super excited to see her perform a song with Labrinth, but she just doesn't have the music career to get people out to Coachella. And Bradley Cooper? Lol

If Zendaya got serious about music again I could see her being a big draw and possibly someone Coachella would actually book.
