i can't wait for all points west west.

2009 Headliners
Friday-Muse/Pavement
Saturday-My Bloody Valentine/Daft Punk
Sunday-Radiohead

coachella innovates. not regurgitates.

No one will be able to afford to go!

where is the source of this information?

"where is the source of this information?"

ask your mom

list above is false.

2009 headliners:
Radiohead/the Beastie Boys/Stevie Wonder
Pavement/Franz Ferdinand/A Tribe Called Quest/Beck/Sigur Ros/Feist
the Prodigy/Underworld/the Knife

"ask your mom"

no dice

also, just in:

Stagecoach, California's Country Music Festival to take place the following weekend, Saturday April 25 & Sunday April 26

youre all retards. Phish is already booked to headline all 3 nights of the festival.

-Vivian Girls
-Telepathe
-Despot

headlining. a cream-dream cum tru.

2009 Headliners
Friday-Muse/Pavement
Saturday-My Bloody Valentine/Daft Punk
Sunday-Radiohead

nope.

what about the other list? what about phish?

-Vivian Girls
-Telepathe
-Despot

yup

The only ones on that other list that I know for certain are Franz/Prodigy. No clue on the rest, yet, but it doesn't look to be accurate.

neutral milk hotel reunion confirmed.
but shhhh!

Pulp reunion: one night only.

REM reunion!

everyone will be LET DOWN is Radiohead aren't there yet again

wu tang forever...fuckers

Neutral Milk Hotel was the worst live show I've ever seen. Why would that be good?

I'd give my left nut for a Stone Roses reunion.

I'd give my right one for Fugazi.

"everyone will be LET DOWN is Radiohead aren't there yet again"

no shit dumbass, radiohead hated coachella. playing after the pixies was awful for them. we dont want them there anyway

6:52 is an idiot. Yea seeing radiohead really sucks. Dumbass

^-- you obviously never read any articles regarding thom's reaction to coachella. they wont play again, youre an idiot.

as said before - coachella innovates, not regurgitates. fresh new acts are what make it great festival, bringing back radiohead is silly and overdone

^ yea radiohead, silly and overdone. wow

i think hes sayin that its overdone for coachella, not overdone in general. of course it would be cool to see them, but coachella aint about that

besides radiohead will be in the studio next year

if the ice cold turd peppers can headline once every four years then radiohead should be able to headline once every two years. and 2009 will have been FIVE years since 2004. you fucking cunts fail at logic and math.

"then radiohead should be able to headline once every two years"

i dont think any band has ever played a fest every 2 years

They do in Europe.

The Prodigy
Franz Ferdinand
Buraka Som Sistema according to "PaulT" from the Goldenvoice blog.
Deerhunter
Social Distortion (doubt it, though)

thanks. any word on radiohead or bowie or the knife?

Radiohead to headline all 3 nights for $5 million.

+ Lily Allen

Headliners are Jane's Addiction, The White Stripes, The Who

Haha, nope.

Actually, The Flaming Lips, Outkast, and Radiohead are headlining.

The Smiths!

From NME:

Speculation has renewed that The Smiths may be on the verge of reforming.

According to a report in The Sun today (October 24), the four original members are close to signing a deal that would see them performing at the [urrl=http://www.coachella.com/]Coachella[/url] festival in California next year.

It is suggested that Morrissey's new manager - former MCA records boss Irving Azoff - has been instrumental in the proposed deal.

A source is quoted as saying: "It has looked impossible in the past but suddenly it all looks like it could happen. The buzz around the people who used to work for the band is they could play Coachella for a ludicrous amount of money.

"It's closer than it's ever been. The split was a messy affair, but time's a healer."

The Suns completely fabricated LIE has already been debunked by people from both parties.

Musicsnob is headling the pyramid stage!!

Muse, Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver, Rabbit in the Moon, Thrice, Kings of Leon, Wilco are confirmed.

No, Probably, No, No, No, Probably, Probably

Also change that "Probably" for Kings of Leon to "No".

Friday: Oasis
Saturday: The Smiths
Sunday: The Stone Roses

How about Led Zeppelin on Friday, The Beatles on Saturday and The Kinks on Sunday? Sign me up.

Are Pavement coming back for Matador's 20th next year, though? I've been watching The Slow Century DVD like crazy lately and I so long for that era.....

i know this isn't even close to being true, but if

Friday: Oasis
Saturday: The Smiths
Sunday: The Stone Roses

happened, I would probably sell all of my material possessions to get the money to go that.

I agree, that festival lineup would be insane. Manchester bands galore. Maybe get bands like Kasabian, Primal Scream, Ocean Colour Scene, Glasvegas and Doves involved. I love dreaming about fake festivals.

Friday: Glasvegas/Kasabian/Oasis

Saturday: Kula Shaker/Doves/The Smiths

Sunday: Ocean Colour Scene/Primal Scream/The Stone Roses

All I want for Christmas is that festival idea to actually happen. Please Santa............................................................

Just keep the Kaiser Chiefs, Keane and Snow Patrol away from any festival and it is bound to be decent.

When will Primal Scream tour the states again? Their new album is bad ass. Check it out people.

Anybody ever hear of the band Sergeant? They have a couple of singles/EPs but no real album. I heard they are good.

I bet this year's Coachella lineup is lame and predictable.

Friday: Kings of Leon

Saturday: Coldplay

Sunday: The Killers

Besides Kings of Leon, that lineup would suck.

^-- including kings of leon, that lineup would suck

My sources claim that Goldenvoice wants Sunday to be a more family-friendly day for the locals (a la Glastonbury) and that they are trying to get Brian Wilson or Stevie Wonder or Paul Simon to play.

I would wet my pants if that line-up were true

Friday: Glasvegas/Kasabian/Oasis

Saturday: Kula Shaker/Doves/The Smiths

Sunday: Ocean Colour Scene/Primal Scream/The Stone Roses

My sources claim that Goldenvoice wants Sunday to be a more family-friendly day for the locals (a la Glastonbury) and that they are trying to get Brian Wilson or Stevie Wonder or Paul Simon to play.

friday-white stripes, wilco, yeah yeah yeahs, chemical bros
saturday-coldplay, morrissey, franz ferdinand, underworld
sunday-paul mccartney, pavement, bloc party, prodigy

Lykke Li and TV on the Radio are CONFIRMED

Beat me to it, but you are correct.

Ben Folds, Amanda Palmer, Soulwax, Bloody Beetroots, Thao with the Get Down Stay Down are all playing now.

Ugh Amaduh Palmer.

$5 says Animal Collective stinks up the place again this year.

Monklish, why dont u post on teh coachella board??

Simian Mobile Disco and Santogold are both returning to play the Sahara next year and David Byrne, TV On The Radio, She & Him, Crystal Castles, Animal Collective are booked too.

Steven, because you clearly know so much, name two of the hip hop groups that are booked thus so far.

wait, does that mean he's right??

Two hip hop grous that are booked:
1) Outkast!
2) A Tribe Called Quest baby

He said Prodigy are playing but they're definitely not as they will be in UK for their arena tour with Dizzee Rascal...

The only ones on that other list that I know for certain are Franz/Prodigy. No clue on the rest, yet, but it doesn't look to be accurate.

Posted by Monklish | October 6, 2008 1:57 PM

The Prodigy arena tour ends early enough for them to fly to Coachella to play Sunday.

Is No Doubt really headlining? Lameassness.

Yes, please don't trust me.

Blog update for those that care enough.

And no, No Doubt isn't headlining. Nor is Outkast. And Tribe probably won't be there either.

As for:

"Simian Mobile Disco and Santogold are both returning to play the Sahara next year and David Byrne, TV On The Radio, She & Him, Crystal Castles, Animal Collective are booked too."

SMD - Yes
Santogold - Haven't heard this
David Byrne - Looks to be yes
TVOTR - Yes
She & Him - Looks to be no
Crystal Castles - Yes
Animal Collective - I hope not

Bummer about She & Him and lol about Animal Collective. Any word on Ladytron and Jarvis Cocker?

Well, hopefully Jarvis decides to wait and just reform Pulp.

I'll look into Ladytron. They'd make sense, no?

Ok Monklish since you seem to be on top of things...who are two hip hop groups that are booked so far

and please keep your lame predictions to your site....

This is BV the best music blog on the east coast

as long as m.i.a. goes back into retirement i'm a happy camper

Well, Jarvis is already working on a new solo album, so it would be at least 2010 before a reunion. Unless he did a one-off for those neglected Americants.

Sigur Ros - yea
Conor Oberst - yea
Fleet Foxes - yea
of Montreal - yea
Asobi Seksu - yea
Kaki King - yea

"Ok Monklish since you seem to be on top of things...who are two hip hop groups that are booked so far"

Saturday: The La's, Graham Coxon, Neutral Milk Hotel and My Bloody Valentine

Sunday: The Specials, Kasabian, TV On The Radio and Neil Young

Festivals are for assholes

Cheech & Chong are playing.

Stevie Wonder is now official.

If you have Stevie Wonder, why not Billy Joel or Hall and Oates?

That's ignorant, don't be ignorant. The Stevie Wonder rumor originates from him playing smaller Goldenvoice venues occasionally. David Byrne will be there, however.

Orbital

All I want is these bands there:
Bowie
Daft Punk
Arcade Fire
Dave Matthews
Santogold
TV Is On The Radio

And I want these bands to reunite or come back:
Tribe
Talking Heads
Eminem & Dre
Spacehog
The Cars

Check out the lineup! paul mccartney, leonard cohen, the cure... http://www.metrowize.com/coachella-2009-festival-line-up
