Several "reputable" music outlets have confirmed that LCD soundsystem and 90% original lineup GnR will Headline Coachella 2016. The lineup appears to be dropping specifically to coincide with an announcement about GnR from Axl on Jimmy Kimmel on Tuesday (jan 5 2016). Buying information Tickets are on sale THIS WEDNESDAY, not THIS FRIDAY. I recommend creating your front gate ticket buying account now. Note: this is diffrent than the coachella.com account, which ties your wristband to your email address. https://coachella-weekend1.frontgatetickets.com/ (Weekend 1) https://coachella-weekend2.frontgatetickets.com/ (weekend 2) GA ONLY IS SOLD OUT THIS YEAR, BOTH WEEKENDS You'll have to buy a GA\Shuttle pass. Lineup See first post FAQ What the gently caress is "Despacio"? Despacio is the name of James murphy David Dewaele, and Stephen dewaele (AKA 2manyDJs AKA Soulwax) custom designed sound system for playing records live. Here is a roundtable from the three about the setup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5z6lG8AAyk incoherent fucked around with this message at 00:38 on Jan 7, 2016 |

Is Calvin Harris <that> popular? Honest question. E: OK, so he's pretty big in the UK and the highest-paid DJ in the world. Just had to double-take at his name as top billing for a day. Real Name Grover fucked around with this message at 04:09 on Jan 5, 2016 |

Clearly Daft Punk will come out during LCD Sound System. A real question: has there ever been a band going two years in a row like Run The Jewels? Not that I'm complaining, they are fun as hell.

Ah, right. Well, for those of you who go, I see that Young Fathers are buried in the day 3 lineup. They won the Mercury Prize a couple years ago. See 'em.

Believe this is Disclosure's 3rd time at Coachella. I'd spend most of my time listening to that Despacio soundsystem. Bet that's a religious experience.

It seems like the lineup consists mostly of bands that I decided to skip in previous years, but now they are a line or two higher. There better be some gems in that undercard.

That lineup sounds loving insane I'd give my left nut to attend this year's Coachella.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:That lineup sounds loving insane Yeah, I wasn't super impressed with last year's lineup, but LCD and Axl/Slash alone would probably be worth the admission. Too bad I'm broke and it's far away!

Axl pulled out of the Kimmel interview tomorrow, so maybe it's falling apart already

An exceptional fake "leaked" poster put a lot of bands that matched a lot of actual lineup earlier today. I suspect they got scared it might leak beforehand and pushed it out today (GV employees were only told leaving the office today it was going live). Things like 2manydjs and despacio (james murphy weird REAL sound system) were not like something you'd think about.

I grew up in the Coachella Valley, and this is the first year I've ever wanted to go. I'm buying my tickets asap. That lineup is fantastic.

Do you currently live there or know someone who does? Local get set aside a number of tickets.

Wait so these are sold the week before Coachella? And there's a limited supply? So if they sell out, I missed my chance to go/am gonna buy off craigslist for a huge markup? I dunno, it sounds kinda cool to not pay now for a festival in April, but that 1000 passes worries me. Any word as to whether that usually sells out? And you have to have the wristband physically put on you at the location, a week before the festival? Yikes, not sure if my job would be okay with me wearing it all week. I'm gonna have to research this more, but thanks a ton for the info.

Well use it as a plan B, and I think they're saying the wednesday BEFORE that weekends' respective festival. (They start on a friday so i'd make sense you'd wear it for two days, not for seven.)

Literally the only reason I'd go to this is for Despacio, but it might be enough because fuuuuuuuuck do I want to experience that soundsystem.

Real Name Grover posted:Is Calvin Harris <that> popular? Honest question. lot has changed at Coachella since I last saw Calvin Harris there and he played the small tent (Gobi?). He's plenty entertaining and I'd prefer him on the mainstage over say Tiesto or some other mega-dj.

A little mixed feelings about this one. They did a great job getting a LOT of good acts, but not a whole lot of my favorites which usually happens. Still pumped, I just moved out of California and am already missing the sun. Glad Silversun Pickups are coming back, their 2009 set ruled. Underworld and ZHU should be insanely cool.

I'm not really into live music due to the crowds, but man I would absolutely love to see Axl Rose and Slash on stage together. However, it would cost a ton of money and there's a decent chance that one of the two, probably Axl, won't even show up. Too risky. I hope they will stream it on youtube again.

If you're planning to see Guns, be prepared to wait at least 2-3 hours past their scheduled time.

substitute posted:If you're planning to see Guns, be prepared to wait at least 2-3 hours past their scheduled time. Actually that's part of what broke up the band in the first place - Axl being late drove Duff to drink to the point where his Pancreas exploded. Expect a more timely band.

I keep seeing despacio as an act to see. Why is that?

# ? Jan 6, 2016 20:27 |

Its not an act, it's a bespoke sound system that james murphy and 2manyDJ\Soulwax developed.

Two tickets, weekend one, with worthless shuttle pass I hope I can sell confirmed. Pretty painless. See you all there! Horrifying goon meetup?

I went last year with Weekend One tickets. This year, I'm going Weekend Two. Hopefully that equates to cheaper flights in.

Weekend 2 is always the better weekend. I'm sure one of these years i'll have to do a single year AND be weekend 2 but the advantages are you don't have to wait on bands getting their poo poo together (drake, modest mouse) or the pretty fuckers "just being 4 da experience".

Either way, it's going to be fun. Last year was my first time. I don't mind going Weekend Two since all my friends switched over. I'm excited, this line up was definitely better then last years, and I had a huge blast last year!

Weekend 2 here -- will be my 5th Coachella. The lineup is one of the best I've seen. I honestly can't wait for the LCD Soundsystem reunion (saw one of their last shows at Coachella 2010 and it was incredible), and I've also been meaning to catch Death Grips live for some time now. Also, yeah, weekend 2 just seems more low-key/chill/about the music, in my opinion. My friends and I always prefer weekend 2.

but if you only go to weekend 2 you won't see the Axl and Slash fistfight on stage

GNR is playing shows in Vegas before Coachella, so Coachella won't even be the first reunion show

Eh, when Pixies reformed they did a bunch of warm up gigs before playing Coachella too.

Hope Axl loses some weight before the show. Having said that, I'm looking foward to it, it's either gonna be amazingly bad or amazingly good. Either way, amazing!
