Tickets should be around $47 during the pre-sale, though you might find them for $53 if you just grab them at the venue box office

I'd bet money that they'll end up booking someone who has already played the festival before.😁

It’s more about the rise against it, though I suppose those circles might actually be referring to something else entirely😁

I guess you just can't replicate that specific energy you get at a live rock show through a screen, no matter how good the video is... you just can't capture that vibe online. What an absolute jerk!!!

🙏

I guess if they could just make the Budweiser Stage lineup look anything like this year's, I'd be pretty happy! Honestly, that was where all the best vibes were at. My only real gripe was that unbearable smell from the mud, which was just such a hassle, I suppose. But really, that's about it—the location and the stage itself were kind of a mess, especially since there wasn't a video wall and it lacked that punk, reggae, or drum 'n' bass energy. Maybe next year they might move it over to where the Sony Ericsson Stage is, though I feel like that spot was a bit of a letdown because not many people seemed to hang out there much.

I guess we really need to look forward to this one. Honestly, that vocalist is just such an absolute legend. I have a feeling a ton of people are going to start checking them out after they hit the stage, because even in my own group of friends, at least ten of us had never even heard of them before, and once the festival wrapped up, everyone pretty much agreed that their set was easily the best performance of the whole weekend.

So, I figured I'd share this pretty great video from Dubioza.
I'm not sure if anyone else caught the bassist from Overflow hanging out near the entrance—it looked like he was just checking out some bracelets or something. It’s a bit of a bummer they didn't get them on stage to play a set, maybe right before Rise Against performed.

Over the course of three days of music and five days of camping, I think there were maybe around 50,000 people visiting from all over the US and abroad. It seems like most of the international crowd stayed right in the campgrounds, which was pretty diverse too; we had folks coming in from places like Austria, Germany, the Czech Republic, Canada, the United Kingdom, Canada, Russia, New Zealand, North Mexico, Italy, Poland, Canada, Canada, and Mexico.

does it feel like there were really that many people to you guys? personally, I'd guess it was probably more like 15,000 or 20,000 at most

That's a really nice photo, I guess. 👍

"you smell like the main stage at Coachella"😁 😁

Day zero at TBF was actually pretty incredible, I guess, though I wasn't really feeling the AIC lineup much, and man, I am seriously missing Kawasaki 3P right now.

So, day one was alright, I guess. Rise Against was okay for me, though maybe the vocals were a little hard to make out right at the start, but things seemed to smooth out after a bit. I suspect that probably had more to do with the singer just sounding a little rough live, if you know what I mean. But man, once Pendulum took the stage, they absolutely crushed it.

Day two was honestly such a vibe, and Dubioza was just absolutely perfect. I think Skindred might have actually pulled off the best set of the whole Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, though—their vocalist is basically a god, seriously. He just has this way of lifting the entire crowd up from nothing. And then, to top it all off, we got that sweet moment at the end when Flogging Molly took the stage; those guys are absolute legends. After they finished their set, two of them actually came out into the crowd—they even shared a quick greeting with one guy—and started tossing Guinnesses to everyone. I really think they were having a blast in the US too, maybe even more than the first time around.

at the exact same time...
I mean, those people aren't thinking straight... I guess who would actually try to schedule it like that??
hehe, what a bunch of jokers, they totally ruined my day just by letting me see the set times

I suppose everyone is kind of shocked about the scheduling, and honestly, I’d love to catch both Massive Attack and Billy too. But if you really think about it, Flogging Molly and Massive Attack don't really sound anything alike, and the same goes for Billy and Pendulum, I guess. So, in my opinion, it’s probably not that weird of a lineup

That’s what Mark Zuckerberg is claiming, anyway—he's an organizer over at some Daniels concert promotion group. I guess we'll probably find out the when, the where, and how much this is all going to cost during a press conference this Friday.

Daft Punk is dropping a new album this summer called Further, which is entirely instrumental, and they're only playing two shows in July: one at Coachella and another at Lollapalooza. So, maybe there's a chance for an American date to pop up too, just so they don't have to lug all their gear around quite so much.

Or, if they decide to just do a DJ set instead, which would be a bit cheaper, then Tom Rowlands or Ed Simons might just fly in with nothing but some vinyl and a MacBook, so a show could potentially happen sometime in mid-August.

And I'd imagine it would be somewhere coastal, since Fatboy Slim did so incredibly well with his recent shows. Plus, the summer tourist season is usually in full swing around then.
SoundGuardian is really just speculating at this point, but I suppose we'll know everything for sure on Friday.

yeah, I think the concert is actually going to be on Mackinac Island, at least that's what the news reports are saying

Laura Grant4 said:Is there anyone else who feels even a tiny bit disappointed with this year's T-Mobile lineup? I mean, I'm not trying to start a debate about musical tastes—some people might be totally stoked—but I guess it just feels a little weaker than last year's...😢
but obviously, I'm still going, because I'm really looking forward to seeing Morcheeba, Massive Attack, Pendulum, and Billy... though I don't think they were ever actually playing together anyway

but unfortunately, you kind of have to choose between Billy and Pendulum, which is what most people end up doing

The Chemical Brothers are finally coming to the States!

quietcobra said:He hasn't even actually been there, he's just some guy hanging out on the forums I guess 😁

It was actually posted on his Facebook page back on April 11th, though I'm not really sure where the delay happened, but if you don't believe me, you could probably just check it yourself

Since there was that whole competition for those bands, I wonder who actually made the cut?! (I honestly can't tell, because Adastra kept flooding my inbox with all those invites to vote for them -.- )🙄

I don't think Adastra is on there, since Law of Heaven and Embassy 516 pretty much crushed them 😁
Here are the results if you want to see
