audioslave-biggest waste of $12 in my entire life-they blow. . . real hard incubus-eh, boring, middle of the road rock-i could take it or leave it. . .actually i'll leave it queens of the stone age-one mainstream band i actually like-good live show jurassic 5-i like em! janes addiction-again, never was really into janes that much so i could take it or leave itin closing, i'll be waiting for the full lineup before i decide whether i will pay to see the show.

Rumor has it Interpol may also be playing. I think we should see the full line-up before making any rash judgements, but I tend to agree, the line-up is, dare I say, too mainstream. Something we wouldn't have said in 1991.

Interpol? OMG would that be a career ending mistake. That would rank right up there with something like…. sandwiched between sum 41 and kelly osbourne at HFS. Hopefully they steer clear. Stay with clubs until radiohead needs an opener.

Incubus used to be great, until Make Yourself came out, and then they sucked, even though it sounded just like, SCIENCE. See, the Flaming Lips can have pink bunnies onstage and that is cool, but please, no power chord music cause that is bad. an god forbid, dont sell a million albums!!! you people are jaded worse than my record store coworkers!!! but either way i am going to Coachella this year finally.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by Latvia: How would that be a career-ending mistake?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Actually it is a crowd that would not be into them, and their's is not a show with the same mosh energy. I guess you didn't see Pavement play Lollapalooza around here. They had mud and sod flung at them so much, they just walked off stage. I could very well see a similar thing happen with Interpol. So with a crowd whose majority doesn't like you you will not be giving your all and will put on a bad show thereby not swaying the 5% who might actually like you. You get bitter and break up. Maybe on the second stage they could be great, like Lambchop was.

I thought Lollapukeloosa was about musical diversity…all I see here is hard rock and a token negro band thrown in…

Was it a career ending mistake when Coldplay played at HFSestival? They were by far the worst band there, yet everyone in this forum seems to bow down to them. (Ok mostly all of you)

$120 for two days? What a ripoff. Bumbershoot in Seattle is like $20 a day, Citystages in Birmingham is $30 for three days, and the Austin City Limits Fest was $35 for two days. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by sonickteam2: yeah, no diversity in that "as of now" lineup. its too bad but people wont pay money for bands they dont really know, but the bands they know, suck. haha. anyway, Coachella……heres who they have "as of now" announced….The Hives Beastie Boys Chemical Brothers Oasis Foo Fighters Bjork Siouxsie and the Banshees Polyphonic Spree Soundtrack of our Live Z-Trip Ben Kweller Deep Dish (!!)and thats like 1/10 of it….for $120 for two days….let this give us all faith that a large festival CAN happen. even if its in cali.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

It is very possible many of those in attendance are now turned off to Coldplay because of that show.

I think there's a difference here. A band can still maintain their integrity, perhaps making them less popular, and make a decent living. Being very popular means being rich, and I don't think that's every bands or every persons goal in life. I don't see eye to eye with those that make that their primary goal. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by Fuelie: I hope you were being sarcastic or something because, if not, that was a completely retarded thing to say. being popular=making money and dont you think that what musicians want?
