God, why bring up Muse here? 😕

Sure, some older acts might have a little prog flavor, but grouping them with The Mars Volta 🙂 just doesn't sit right with me.

I don't know how much weight they carry with the "true" prog fans out there, but personally, I'm obsessed, so I figured a recommendation was in order.

It’s like having Les Savy Fav, The Shins, Ted Leo, M83, Belle & Sebastian, Wilco, and TV on the Radio all playing at once.
I'm jumping in too.
Think of it like this: Arcade Fire, Broken Social Scene, My Morning Jacket, Kings of Convenience, and The Decemberists... they're all just different flavors of that same great feeling.
If even one of those bands shows up, this lineup is already gonna crush last year's. 😁

Woo! Woo! Adding Interpol and Foals to the mix.

Jeffrey Reyes4 said:What I'm wishing for:

If they can somehow pull off getting Amy Winehouse or AC/DC on the lineup... 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I mean, I have my doubts about seeing AC/DC play at festivals like Coachella. They’re just too massive for that kind of scene.

Both of them are pretty much falling apart at this point, so I'm not so sure. Though, honestly, she’s improved a bit, kind of like how Amy did.

I don't care if it costs a fortune or if I have to take out a high-interest loan from the same guy everyone borrows from—I'm in. Even if they were just playing a tiny side stage at a local gas station, I'd be there.

I'm in (except for The Shins—they aren't really my vibe).

TV on the Radio could totally show up too—it’s not like anyone's gonna eat them alive!

It’s actually been scientifically proven that most serial killers throughout history have cited Tchaikovsky's 'Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy' as their absolute favorite track. ☕

If we want some actual peace and quiet in this world, everyone just needs to start listening to MP THOMPSON, amen!

I have to admit, I haven't checked out the sequel yet. Maybe it's because the first one didn't exactly blow my mind. It wasn't bad, per se, just didn't grab me—even though everyone I talked to was basically dying of laughter over it.

Not really my thing at all. I mean, I listen to plenty of other bands in that same vein, though.

George Chavez8 said:awesome, how about we celebrate with a little tailgate party at the park? meet me by the bridge at 8—I'll grab some rare finds from Convenience and N. Vague, you just bring the drinks. we can drink, dance, and you can finally teach me how to actually love my hair. c y

😬

Of course, those suburban girls are my absolute favorite.

I’ve always been a fan of my hair, honestly. 🥳

Their music doesn't really do much for me, but man, Conor's songwriting? It’s pure magic. I'm seriously bummed I missed his set when he played in NYC.


Oh, you are the roots that sleep beneath my feet,
and hold the earth in place.
each time a curtain opens,
sunlight pours in,
a lifetime melts away.

Just one of those perfect things, I'd say.

Man, just everything’s turned yellow—teeth, fingers, probably even the mustache.

I kept getting these notifications from some guy named Richard over at LotteryWin, hitting my Gmail maybe twice a day. I just ignored them every single time until, after about the fiftieth attempt, they finally stopped. 🤷
Don't bother responding. It's just a bunch of junk mail.

I almost never see anything on Gmail, but my damn Hotmail inbox gets hit with 180 spam messages in three days. Plus, there’s this constant "invitation from Vida" nonsense popping up. 🤷

Hotmail is basically a breeding ground for these spam bots. On Gmail, I might get a stray "virtual world direct" email here and there, but that's about it.

Why are the Foo Fighters even coming back?
They’re playing tracks from an album that isn't even out yet. 😕

They're a solid band, don't get me wrong, but I bet half the crowd won't show up compared to when they were on tour with Placebo and Queens of the Stone Age.
I'm not about to trek all the way there just to deal with those $60. 😁

I hate questions like this, but whatever:

The Smiths - Bigmouth Strikes Again.

Personally, it’s just unbeatable.

Escape Rooms are pretty cool.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Spanish vibes and I'm a huge rock fan, so seeing those two worlds collide is awesome...
(post-Shakira era, obviously 🤣 )

I actually dig the Planet Escoria vibe...it's worth a listen. That said, I think there are some even better Spanish artists out there in that same vein.
