The lack of big name EDM acts is very interesting. Some people think it's because EDC Vegas moved up their dates to May. There's also a rumor on Reddit that Goldenvoice is planning on having an EDM fest later in the year and is holding back acts for that.

yeah i didnt realize it until i made the playlist and all the solo artists names in the undercard that i just assumed were edm (because i am an old) ended up being pop, r&b, folk, and more idm downtempo stuff.
definitely not complaining about the change

Mocks someone made on the Coachella board, actually have me more excited for the fest but as always mocks are mocks Friday Tank and the Bengas > Kelela > Vince Staples > Detroit Love > JMJ (sorry Annie but this is rare) > SZA > Jamiroquai > The Weeknd > Soulwax SaturdayPriests > Big Thief > Wizkid > BROCKHAMPTON > Oh Sees > Jungle maybe? > maybe Angel Olsen or just camp for > Chic > Tyler > Fleet Foxes > Haim > David Byrne > Beyonce SundaySnail Mail > Dej Loaf > John Maus > Kamaiyah > Japanese Breakfast > Ibeyi > Noname > Migos > Portugal > Drums > Kamasi Washington > King Krule > Em I guess I'd definitely get my money's worth for this schedule. Only bummer is missing Cardi B, Perfume Genius, Angel Olsen, and prob St. Vincent for JMJ.

Obviously I didn't grow up on 8 Mile but growing up he Em lived less than a mile from me, his daughter went to my high school, I still haven't seen him yet, Encore was the first CD I ever bought, idk I feel like I have a weird obligation to see him but I'll never go out of my way to buy a ticket to a solo show. So like this is my only chance, unless I win tickets to Roo again. Too bad Coachella will be his first show and I don't know how much new material he'll play, I think more than people are assuming. Also guests? Dre for Guilty Conscience pleaaaase.

Migos> PTM>Odesza> Eminem would be the worst mainstage run in the history of the festival.

So I was able to sell my passes already but just found out the camping passes are non-transferable! so I'm out the $100 or whatever for that.

I think it just means the camping pass is tied to your particular wristband so you can't sell them separately

Right, but I fucked up and sold the passes separately. So I COULD be a nice guy and just throw the camping pass in for free, but the sale's already done so it's not like I can ask for more money. Ah well, it isn't the worst. Just a fuckup on my part.

I’m all for not giving that dude money because he is most certainly a piece of shit but AEG owns like, every LA sports team and a bunch of venues across the country and also a ton of oil. He’s a multi-billionaire and going to Coachella isn’t even a drop in the bucket for him. In my head I’d probably just imagine that it’s going to support the medical school rather than the anti-gay causes for my own personal sanity.

have seen that posted around a lot this week by artists who have definitely been booked by aeg owned promoters.

yeah not that i don't appreciate the sentiment but pretending coachella is the prime target for a boycott is pretty pointless.
I'd also wager a lot of folks at the top of livenation and Ticketmaster's parent companies are terrible but i doubt anyone is boycotting every LN and TM show anytime soon

Stereogum reporting that the mysterious "Dreams" on the lineup is a collab of Luke Steele from Empire of the Sun and Daniel Johns from Silverchair.

Neader and Wretched take Coachella Round 2! 👊 (also kinda gross that people like people bailing on things but w/e) turns out i've got quite a few people from college and previous jobs who are trying to get tickets so we might have a decent group to hang out with depending if they get through or not. **spoiler, they probably will be at almost none of the same sets as us and will likely be camping for Eminem or something dumb**

Apparently they have a house nearby via one of the girls' family so yeah I have somewhat of a crew this time but same thing about the sets.

it's a very, very, very, very, very, long shot, but it is not completely impossible that I could convince the better half to make Coachella 2018 her first festival since lollachile 2011, especially now that economic and health issues are not as dire as they were a couple of yrs ago...
