Sasquatch/Coachella

[iLoveLamp]

I'm heading out bright and early tomorrow morning, I'm stoked! First Sasquatch since 2011 for me.

For anyone going to Coachella this year, what have you heard as far as rumours go?

I've seen this: http://www.festivalsnobs.com/rumors-coachella-2015/ which looks pretty rad. I'd love to see Faith No More, Jack White, Panda Bear etc....

I've also heard there's a good possibility that U2, Coldplay and one of Kayne or Drake could be headlining.

Eitherway, lineup should be out in about a month......

[J pold]

Please no U2.

[polak]

lol

U "No one wants our music, even for free" 2.

No thanks.

When do tickets go on sale to Canadians? What are the chances of grabbing some if I'm on, day of?

[corporatejay]

Haha, U2 is so irrelevant for the Coachella audience. That would be a disaster and if they want to lull everyone to sleep they can bring in coldplay to headline...brutal.

Look at who is releasing new albums in 2015, and speculate away:

Sleater-Kinney
Decemberists

Working on new albums:

Replacements
Modest Mouse

Recently Modest Mouse put on a pretty good show at Mac Hall despite not playing any of their popular hits.

Sorry dp

U2 is out - they are playing 5 concerts in LA in May.

I thought it was going to be the Foo Fighters but they are out as well because of a couple LA concerts.

Modest Mouse was a disaster when they played Coachella a couple years ago. They were wasted, sounded like #### and had the plug pulled on them when they went too long. Can't see them back so soon.

I honestly have no idea who it's going to be this year. My best guess right now would be Jack White/Coldplay/Prince headlining with guys like Avicii, Kendrick and The National sub-headlining.

Tickets go on sale a couple days after the lineup gets released in mid-January.

Weekend 1 is tough, most of them are sold in the pre-sale. Weekend 2 shouldn't be too hard to get if you are on right when they go on sale.

Prince is curious - what makes you think/say that?

I'm expecting Kygo, Flume and Odesza to be there for some reason. That would be all I need

Total guess on my part without anything to back it up. New album, doing some shows here and there combined with his legendary Coachella performance from back in 07 got me thinking about it.

A boy can dream!

I've got a couple Weekend 2 tickets, and I'm not going this year. PM me when the lineup comes out if you're interested in buying them!

[username]

Oh ya, I've got a couple weekend 1 VIP tickets that I likely won't use. I'm going to weekend 2 so weekend 1 might be a no go.

[macker]

New albums expected from Nero, My Morning Jacket, James Blake, Chromatics, Coldplay. Other possibilities Future Islands, The National, Wild Beasts, Strand of Oaks, War on Drugs, Alt-J

Flume was probably my favorite set from last year. His performance was insane and the crowd was fantastic. A must see if he's back in 2015.

Faith No More will have a new album out in the spring. But so far all their dates next year are in Europe so we'll see.

Not very good: http://www.lollapalooza.com/#2014-lineup/

I'd be surprsised to see him headline Coachella the summer after he was a headliner at Lolla.
