Coachella damn sure repeats headliners and if Radiohead tours in 2012 (which they likely will) then there's no doubt GV will be booking Radiohead again.
hahaha YES!! I had been partying all day and was a bit blurry eyed when we spotted him in the campground. he was on the piano and we walked up and i looked at my buddy and was like, "is that the guy from Jurassic Park!?"

If there was a universe where I could see a three hour Radiohead set, then run over to the Sahara Tent and see the Knife close out the night with a full set, well, wow.

All over the Coachella Boards...
The Knife claim on their website (via Disco Naïveté) that they're currently "recording a new album to be released in 2012." They don't offer any further info on it, but hey! We'll take it! In the same post, they encourage fans to fight discrimination against the Romani people in Europe.

I saw shpongle for a bit, but couldn't see who was up there due to the extensive funky lighting and massive amounts of people between me and the stage... In the program it said it was a "DJ set", if that makes any difference

Pretty sure its just Simon doing a "DJ Set." Its been said a few times on this board, and other places, that Raja can't come into the country. I don't really know, I don't follow them.

Not to clog up the coachella thread but since its kinda derailed already....am I the only one that feels like besides the visuals its pretty boring?
And clearly you aren't a rapist (I hope) but the way you pop into any thread where a woman happens to be lamenting her lack of ride to Bonnaroo and tell them to come hop on your bus sounds extremely rapey.
Never been to Coachella. Do they have something similar to the Sonic & Solar stages and the Cafe's? More intimate performance venues? Besides the ones featuring Jeff Goldblum, I mean...

They kinda do with the Pure Filth Oasis Dome and the Do-Lab

my opinion from my experience this year, is no...not really.
they have the do lab and the oasis dome, but both house 98%-100% djs the entire weekend. the 'stage' that jeff goldblum was on, was an independently erected one in the campsite, not funded by coachella at all.
from what i understand in years past they've have small stages in the campgrounds for djs after hours but i didn't find that/hear about it this year.

Yeah usually it's set up on the camp grounds. I think they didn't do it this year because so many people were sneaking on the camp grounds last year to party...it went until around 3 or so

If Radiohead tours North America next summer, I would be surprised if they didn't headline at least 2 out of the big 4 US festivals, regardless of whether or not they've played those particular festivals before. There's not another active band that can claim to have the same combination of popularity and critical respect, and a festival organizer would be crazy to pass on an opportunity to have them. It's become pretty obvious in recent years that there's a pretty small pool of artists capable of headlining major festivals, so I doubt anybody is going to care if they repeat a festival they've already played before.

I have seen Shpongle twice, though without the Shpongletron. The first time it was ok, though I am not a big fan of bands that try to scare you after psychedelics have been ingested. The second time however was flat out boring, posford is the definition of a button pusher DJ. Literally all he does is press buttons and wave his finger beside the feather in his cap. I might go so I can check out the Shpongletron, but I do not see myself staying long. Also as far as I can tell show up late if you want the the first 15 minutes is essentially Phillip Glass style ambient crap.

I place responsibility for that with the ingester in the audience, not the artist onstage. You suggest that the temperature of the kitchen be turned down for everyone on account of the few who can't take the heat? I disagree with that myself.
Bonnaroo Coachella Lollapalooza Austin City Limits
That would be my Big Four. ACL & Lolla share a similar attendance capacity and city park location - giving them similar size, layout, and operation. This could have something to do with the fact that ACL & Lolla are both put on by the same company. That fact might also explain some of the overlap between the two festivals as well. Both of these festivals consistently feature comparable headliners as those you'd see at Bonnaroo or Coachella. I think any assessment of the big destination festivals in this country that includes one while omitting the other is remiss.
