It Starts Now: Volume Four - 2012 Lollapalooza Headliner Speculation

[SecondSet]

Roger Waters did not play Bonnaroo. Dave Matthews Band, Kings of Leon, and Stevie Wonder were billed above him.

DMB is managed by the co-owner of Bonnaroo, Coran Capshaw, without whom the festival would not exist. Kings of Leon are the festival's local heroes from Nashville. Stevie is a far older and more influential/iconic artist. And that was two years ago, before Jay co-headlined Yankee Stadium and made Forbes' list of those most likely to make its 400 list by the middle of this decade.

[SecondSet]

Maybe he was looking at some fake Roo lineup posters from 2010?

Yes. The change in their site sent me to Google Image Search.

[Krentistthedentist]

Wow, with a write up like that in Forbes, he must be a guaranteed #1 at any fest!

[SecondSet]

That SecondSet has the IQ of a 12 year old?

That must be how I've consistently scored in the 99th percentile on every standardized test I've ever faced.

[MadBird11]

SecondSet is like the new Nana. Wonder what his trapper keeper looks like.

[MadBird11]

That must be how I've consistently scored in the 99th percentile on every standardized test I've ever faced.

I'm sorry but we only have room for one pompous intellectual and we already have 4.

[didyouseethe]

I heard through the grapevine that Rupert Murdoch is doin' Lolla.

I mean, come on! DMB and KoL are MUCH MUCH larger draws to Roo. Lolla? DMB maybe, definitely not KoL. Stevie would be billed above most artists anywhere, anytime.

[SecondSet]

Cheating master?

High school kids.

I've done that too and people here think I'm retarded.

Thanks for letting me know, 12th grade. Where you headed next year?

Wherever I want.

God bless AA

Don't insult Nana like that.

[MadBird11]

Don't insult Nana like that.

Oh yeah. My bad Nana. Please forgive me.

[thombjorke.]

Thanks for letting me know, 12th grade. Where you headed next year?

BTW where are you right now? What sort of career do you have?

[SecondSet]

Wherever I want.

Haha. A born Harvard kid.

And that was two years ago, before Jay co-headlined Yankee Stadium and made Forbes' list of those most likely to make its 400 list by the middle of this decade.

And yet Dave Matthews Band has been billed below Widespread Panic, Kings of Leon have not headlined stadiums (which you claim is criteria for being billed above Jay-Z), and if influential/iconic status translated to billing order, John Fogerty would not have been billed below Michael Franti & Spearhead, and The Beach Boys would be the top billed act this year.

[SecondSet]

Anyone want to expound upon Jay's standing with WME vis-a-vis Radiohead? Maybe the fact that the latter wouldn't get top billing is why they turned Lolla down. Pretentious wankers.

[Krentistthedentist]

Or maybe it was because they were literally here four years ago and chose to play fests they have not in 5+ years

[BearDownBoilerUp]

SecondSet isn't Buzz? It's like Godzilla and Mecha Godzilla are on the same team. This sucks.

[IAmScareMongering]

BDBU wins best avatar.

[nikolajz1]

I didnt even notice that. Agreed!

When was DMB billed below Panic? In 1993? KoL headlined Hyde Park last Summer, where Madonna is doing a show this Summer, and is a lot bigger in Tennessee than anywhere else in the US (in which they've headlined every other major festival). Neither the Beach Boys reunion (which does not include original members of the band, who are still basically a county fair act even partially-reunited) nor Fogerty (without the full band) reaches full iconicity.

[ten15SaturdayNight]

Full iconicity? Srsly?

[IAmScareMongering]

I'm not going to argue with someone that keeps responding with complete nonsense.

[MadBird11]

You're in the 99 percentile and you made this statement.

Amazing.

[SecondSet]

Do you guys disrespect all black people or just the ones who rap?

[SecondSet]

You're in the 99 percentile and you made this statement.

Amazing.

Actually, I'm in the 1%.

[nikolajz1]

Question about the Beach Boys, is John Stamos a part of this tour or not? Is he like playing the tambourine?

[MadBird11]

Stamos is a percussionist. I (thankfully) did not see him during the Grammy performance.

[arbee]

Stamos is a percussionist. I (thankfully) did not see him during the Grammy performance.

he was under Brian Wilson's keyboard.

[thombjorke.]

Last two comments by him basically confirm that SecondSet is a troll.

[nikolajz1]

Stamos is a percussionist. I (thankfully) did not see him during the Grammy performance.

Yeah I didnt see him either. That's why Im asking. So worth it just to go and see him lol. I wont be able to stop loling.

[MadBird11]

he was under Brian Wilson's keyboard.

Fantastic.

[Krentistthedentist]

Oh well, buzz, better luck convincing us you aren't a moron next time!

[Nile19]

lollaleaks did a lot of damage after Perry RT'd it.
his predictions are taken as the word of god- err C3.

Not "Buzz," though. I thought you guys were smart.

[Krentistthedentist]

We are, Buzz.

[nikolajz1]

Cant wait until c3 dumps perry. He is the one thing I hate about Lolla.

lol'd too hard at this.

[Caseysitsallgood]

but not as smart as you, right?

Yes,
Ask him why the fuck he would be friends with Buzz.

[Driftwood]

And that was two years ago, before Jay co-headlined Yankee Stadium and made Forbes' list of those most likely to make its 400 list by the middle of this decade.

Wow. Just wow.

HEY GUYS ONLY 3 ACTS CAN HEADLINE OVER JAY-Z. OH THOSE THREE OTHER ACTS? WELL THOSE WERE EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES. EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCE S I SAY!

Get over yourself if Kings of Leon and Radiohead played the same fest, even in Nashville, Radiohead would be above them.

[thombjorke.]

you can calm down, we've already established he isn't a real person

[WretchedSkye2113]

you don't know [drunk] drifty very well.

[SecondSet]

Yes,
Ask him why the fuck he would be friends with Buzz.

I still don't know who that is. And we're friends because we both went to schools for people who are smarter than you.

[Driftwood]

I want IP address checks on every noob and bans for all that were originated by buzz.

[WretchedSkye2113]

still not voting for you.

[SecondSet]

if Kings of Leon and Radiohead played the same fest, even in Nashville, Radiohead would be above them.

Yeah, and so would Jay-Z, today.

[Driftwood]

Good because I'd ban you first chance I got.

[SecondSet]

I want IP address checks on every noob and bans for all that were originated by buzz.

No problem here

[Krentistthedentist]

I still don't know who that is. And we're friends because we both went to schools for people who are smarter than you.

That school literally does not exist.
I am smart enough to go anywhere I want.
Just too scrubby.

[Driftwood]

Yeah, and so would Jay-Z, today.

Can't believe Jay-Z has experienced this explosion in popularity all of a sudden.

[WretchedSkye2113]

Good because I'd ban you first chance I got.

yeah, something like that.

[Driftwood]

Hey SecondSet. I have a Nobel prize. I'm smarter than you.

[Driftwood]

yeah, something like that.

What are you crying about?

[Five_Hole]

Can we get a rule #6 check on SecondSet?

[Krentistthedentist]

Just report all of his posts for insufferable trolling.
I think that's bannable.

[WretchedSkye2113]

What are you crying about?

a not-white guy running for mod!



I think that's bannable.

at least wait until he says one of the 3 forbidden words.

[SecondSet]

Can't believe Jay-Z has experienced this explosion in popularity all of a sudden.

He was Billboard's 10th most successful recording artist of the 00s (Radiohead is not in the Top 100), and, with Kanye, Pollstar's 9th biggest North American touring act of 2011, the second-biggest tour managed by WME, whose top act, Stefani somebody, headlined Lolla in 2010.

[SecondSet]

Hey SecondSet. I have a Nobel prize. I'm smarter than you.

Fun and games, but I was raised by people who work with a Nobel Prize winner. For serious.

[nikolajz1]

Fun and games, but I was raised by people who work with a Nobel Prize winner. For serious.

I copied papers for a Nobel prize winner once. Does that count?

[Krentistthedentist]

I was raised by motherfucking wolves

[beancroc]

I came here for some speculation, and all I got was a pissing contest.

[Krentistthedentist]

Here are your headliners
Metallica * Beyonce * The Killers * Smashing Pumpkins
Beck * Jack White * Sigur Ros

peace.

[Driftwood]

Who also was billed below Soundgarden and Green Day. Thanks for playing.

Of the 00s - that should translate to a pretty good billing at Bonnaroo 2010 don't you think? Oh guess not.

[Driftwood]

Fun and games, but I was raised by people who work with a Nobel Prize winner. For serious.

Who is playing? I do have a Nobel Prize.

And my kids will be a lot smarter than you.

[ferro_man]

Can we get a rule #6 check on SecondSet?

I would like a rule #6 check on EVERY account as a new thread so we can all lulz over everyone's alts

Didn't say she was top-billed. Apparently, you didn't draw the useful information out of that post.

[Krentistthedentist]

I THINK HE WAS POINTING OUT THAT YOUR ARGUMENT THAT JAY'S RELATIONSHIP WITH WME WOULD GIVE HIM TOP BILLING OBVIOUSLY DID NOT TRANSLATE TO LADY GAGA

but then again, you're the genius

[Driftwood]

Seriously don't know how this guy could be 50th percentile. Maybe he is so smart that he can't understand simple things?

As the genius, let me point out that I only said it might explain his being billed over Radiohead, not necessarily #1.

[nikolajz1]

You're way ahead of me in the simple dept.

[Driftwood]

Oh cool so he might be billed number 3 and Radiohead 4, 5 or 6? Keep digging.

Try 2, after Metallica. And Radiohead isn't playing, I've been reliably told. Here's your shovel.

[SecondSet]

I'm in my late 30s. Old enough to have listened to Nirvana (pre-Nevermind) in my teens, and then to outgrow the adolescent demand for musical "authenticity" or belief that your favorite bands define you.

[nikolajz1]

[jcp]

So... No Chicago date on dave Matthews US tour which ends late July..

[MookieDaddy]

That's excellent news for us in Chicago! Our river is safe again!

And yeah, this thread once again went to shit over the last few pages.

[stelles75]

Y'all are funny.

[muthastone]

It would be unprecedented for anyone to take #1 billing at all three American festivals.

didn't Arcade Fire headline ACL, Coachella, Bonnaroo in 2011?

[MookieDaddy]

I'd tell you to go back a few pages and see someone already made that point, but I really wouldn't wish that on anyone.

[Nile19]

Worst ten pages of a thread EVER.
ya, I can't believe I read it all... I don't even know what the argument is or if there was one



didn't Arcade Fire headline ACL, Coachella, Bonnaroo in 2011?

Yes they did- but I think ktd was referring to Coach, Roo, and Lolla all sharing no.1 billing in the same year, which has never happend. However you are correct- Coach, Roo, and ACL all shared Arcade Fire last year- but AF was not billed number one at all 3

[Nile19]

They only had the #1 overall billing at ACL though right?

Stevie was above them on the poster, but they got that unopposed set for some reason anyway

[concertgoer]

I blame The Grammys

[concertgoer]

So... No Chicago date on dave Matthews US tour which ends late July..

Before people starting freaking out that DMB might be at Lolla,I am pretty sure sure that the East Troy dates rule them out.

[Audiobully]

DMB is not now nor will they ever play Lollapalooza.

[Five_Hole]

Before people starting freaking out that DMB might be at Lolla,I am pretty sure sure that the East Troy dates rule them out.

I'm so glad the Smashing Pumpkins rumors are back. This thread was really missing something last year. Yearly Cure rumors just aren't the same.

[SecondSet]

You saw soundset and yet you typed secondset. J'accuse.

He typed SecondSet, because that is my handle, not "soundset," whatever that means. Did no one teach you to read?

I also gather that he's some kind of Ron Paul conservative. I've been a liberal Democrat for my entire life and indeed done work for both of the Democratic Presidents of your lifetime.

I suppose you still won't be able to figure this out, though.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

He's on a list of available acts for Northern Illinois, which usually means the individual isn't playing Lolla.

although I'm still convinced Dude Ranch was a great punk album.

Never really cared for anything else.

.

[WretchedSkye2113]

but seriously. Blink-182 would not play Lollapalooza, move on.

we should be bitching about not wanting RHCP or Killers.

[BearDownBoilerUp]

i dont want any of those.

[MookieDaddy]

(I don't really care) Why are you so readily brushing off Blink 182? Just because LollaLeaks didn't mention them??

Again, just to clarify, I DON'T REALLY CARE and really don't even want them there.

[El Goodo]

Methinks he doth protest too much.

I guess Mookie just loves his authentic punk.

[MookieDaddy]

Truthfully, I would watch Blink before I would watch Jack White solo.
But again, I don't care and I honestly don't think they'll be there either. I just find it funny that this one gets brushed off quickly.

[El Goodo]

But my opinions about Blink and JW solo differ from yours. So eat shit.

[MookieDaddy]

BAN!!!

[BearDownBoilerUp]

Truthfully, I would watch Blink before I would watch Jack White solo.

ban

[El Goodo]

BAN!!!

Sorry. Eat shit, please.

[MookieDaddy]

Better, all is forgiven.

[brynrich]

but seriously. Blink-182 would not play Lollapalooza, move on.

Seriously, though... Why wouldn't they play Lolla?

[Driftwood]

Truthfully, I would watch Blink before I would watch Jack White solo.

I'm probably in the bottom 20% of Jack White fandom on this board but I'm not sure if I can take your opinion on music seriously again.

[brynrich]

This would be tough for me. I really loved Blink-182 when I was a kid and still know a ton of their stuff ("Dammit" was the first real song I learned to play on guitar). At the same time, Jack White playing the best of all of his bands would be pretty amazing...

[MookieDaddy]

I'm probably in the bottom 20% of Jack White fandom on this board but I'm not sure if I can take your opinion on music seriously again.

Wait, you did before??

The Black Keys
Mumford & Sons

We don't know a damn thing.

SHM
The ever-present and totally unremarkable Flaming Lips, Weezer, Death Cab, Wilco, VW, Lil Wayne group.

Kot where are you

[90sRevival]

ezra has been tweeting a little about his album, and VW was seen in the studio. I'm thinking they'll be there

and by tweeting about the album, I mean, "gotta drop VW3 b4 WW3"

[Krentistthedentist]

I think I was first on the Mookie Daddy has shit taste train

[nikkirkpatrick]

Wonderful post. I've thought that for well over a decade now.

yeah... i don't think they will be there.

[Mike53421]

If Green Day can play Lolla, Blink can play Lolla. Or at the very least Travis Barker can smash his drumset for an hour.

[Miller]

Wonderful post. I've thought that for well over a decade now.

They're actually my favorite band, but they should really take a fucking break from festivals.

[Miller]

If Green Day can play Lolla, Blink can play Lolla. Or at the very least Travis Barker can smash his drumset for an hour.

I'm in this camp, but this isn't the year.

[Krentistthedentist]

The only difference is that Green Day isn't shit

[Miller]

Also, Lolla will probably get the Fall Out Boy reunion eventually.

[concertgoer]

we're not getting blink.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if they played.

[BearDownBoilerUp]

I wouldn't be surprised either but I really really hope we're not getting blink. more like stink!

[Nile19]

I listened to Blink in 6th grade. I stopped in 7th and I never want to go back.

[El Goodo]

And how is 8th grade treating you?

[Krentistthedentist]

Also, Lolla will probably get the Fall Out Boy reunion eventually.

Guessing within the next 2 years.

[Nile19]

And how is 8th grade treating you?

I knew this was coming.
Pretty good I guess, girls are getting attractive now.

[carligula]

But there is no precedent for an act like that.

Tool is close enough for me. And Metallica played the touring version.

[SecondSet]

mumford & sons were "leaked" to not be there this year.

I'd love some kind of link on that

[SecondSet]

Blink 182 just announced their summer dates (http://consequenceofsound.net/2012/02/blink-182-announces-20th-anniversary-tour-dates/), and there's no Chicago date and the tour ends mid July!!

Angels and Airwaves will tour second half of Summer

[Miller]

Guessing within the next 2 years.

Yep. I'd guess new album in 2015, so either right before or right after that.

[Miller]

I'd love some kind of link on that

Perhaps I should have asked for a useful link.

[Miller]

I forgot you're old and don't understand Twitter, sorry

[Krentistthedentist]

Perhaps I should have asked for a useful link.

Perhaps you should learn what the fuck quotation marks mean.

[carligula]

Speaking of links, do you have one for this?

[Krentistthedentist]

He has a "connection."

Speaking of connections, I talked to a friend who has an in with Drake
She said it's going to be a while before he comes back to Chicago.

[nanatod]

She said it's going to be a while before he comes back to Chicago.

unexpired arrest warrant?

[SecondSet]

I forgot you're old and don't understand Twitter, sorry

I understand both twitter and the unreliability of that account.

[Krentistthedentist]

Right but you still don't understand what quotation marks mean.
You're going to have to be a lot smarter if you are going to talk such a big game, bud.

I understand what question marks mean. I also understand what the word in the question marks means.

[Krentistthedentist]

Clearly.

Like nik, I'll like you a lot more for a while if you out yourself. Then I will probably tire of you.

[SecondSet]

Out myself as...?

I've been a Big Fan of VW since before they released their debut.

Thanks! Other folks are busy giving you shit, but this is an extremely helpful bit of info


"The Blink tour is in June and then the Angels dates will get worked in after that. But I'll be doing both bands throughout the year. We've confirmed all our production design for the European run. Mark is in London and having an amazing time, he's been writing music. We'll be going strong through May and June. Blink has such a rabid fanbase in the UK, I look forward to those, UK shows are some of the best we play in the world."

[Miller]

He started it, after I gave him a link he asked for.

[Krentistthedentist]

That is correct.
Considering SecondSet's insufferably pompous persona and subsequently idiotic statements, it's hard to say he isn't asking to be flamed.

[SecondSet]

Indie cred now activated.

The opposite, if anything.

[MookieDaddy]

Question is, will Drifty now take back what he said about my taste?

Hopefully we get it before Coachella

[Caseysitsallgood]

that's kind of early isn't it? at least compared to last year?

[MadBird11]

Oh.

Time for another 450 pages of shitty speculation!
