It Starts Now: Volume Four - 2012 Lollapalooza Headliner Speculation

[Willy]

Yeah, I was just making sure you didn't think we hated black people here.
Well, SOAD looked like a good fit because they were going to be in the general area, but I can't see Lolla booking both SOAD and Sabbath.
As for RHCP, the radius clause precludes their involvement, but Willy insists that they'll be there.

So essentially, we have two posters claiming inside information, one tidbit gets you what you want, one does not.
FWIW, Audiobully is the more reliable of the two since he's been around longer.
No offense, Willy.

No offense taken. I want to be wrong!

[msufanrk]

haha its all good...but alright man thanks for the response!

[Neader]

I really can't see TBK, JW, BS, and RHCP all being there, that's way too rock heavy.

Black Sabbath * The Throne * The Black Keys
Jack White * Justice * Avicii

I'm sticking to it.

[concertgoer]

If we have to have RHCP show up and spoil the party, I at least hope that someone great is on the other field.

Jack White

[falcozappa]

I'll take that. If only Roo would follow suit.

[MadBird11]

Jack White

I don't think the bros would like that.

[concertgoer]

I just texting with with my doubt in RHCP and all he would give me is "I only know what I hear". so............

Maybe RHCP was the backup headliner if Sabbath wasn't ready to go?

[msufanrk]

much love krentist ;]

[falcozappa]

...although maybe someone could get a punch in :)

[Krentistthedentist]

I don't think the bros would like that.

Heh.

[MadBird11]

Heh.

Keeping in mind that I have no idea what bros like, I just assume having two rock acts going on at the same time would make them very unhappy.

Also, I'm listening to a Sabbath album, guess which one!

[Krentistthedentist]

Should be: Master of Reality
Is: Paranoid

[MadBird11]

No, it's Master of Reality.

I remember Jay was going off how it was the best starting point at some point.

[falcozappa]

My guess....

[Krentistthedentist]

Madbird's going throuugghhh chaaaannggggeeesss

[concertgoer]

Madbird's going throuugghhh chaaaannggggeeesss

Heh

[MadBird11]

I will try to remain as much of the same pussy that we've all come to hate.

[thombjorke.]

No, it's Master of Reality.

I remember Jay was going off how it was the best starting point at some point.

This is the first time you've ever listened to a Sabbath album?

[MadBird11]

This is the first time you've ever listened to a Sabbath album?

From start to finish, yeah. I knew a couple of the hits, but that's about it. It's well documented that I'm not much of a metal person.

[KevBlu42]

I agree with whoever said Sabbath/RHCP/TBK/Jack is way too rock-heavy. Still thinking we get a pop act at #2 and only one of TBK/RHCP, with No Doubt and Jay-Z seeming like the likeliest of options.

That said, I'd be fine with either TBK or RHCP as long as someone decent like M83 closes the Grove/Pseudo-Perry's.

Oh, and I'm currently listening to Sabbath's "Reunion" album, only because it's all the original lineup has on Spotify and I don't have any full Sabbath albums on my new computer. I'll have to remedy that this week.

[Miller]

I think Keys could be #2 and Pumpkins could be #3, considering that we have a pretty weak 4-6. This is the only major fest where I think that's possible.

[Willy]

Maybe RHCP was the backup headliner if Sabbath wasn't ready to go?

I hope this is the case no matter how many beers it will cost me

[WretchedSkye2113]

For the record, after a conversation last night, I can say with great confidence that Black Sabbath is our #1.

[Miller]

If only you posted more in the line-up forum. Things could have been different. <4

http://i3.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/006/026/futuramafry.jpg

I might be missing something here. I post in the line-up forum pretty much exclusively. I tried to be a full-on Fans Lounge-type earlier this year, but the Releases of Note thread is all I really frequent on that side anymore, and I don't post much in it.

[concertgoer]

Miller I voted for you.

[WretchedSkye2113]

so

Black Sabbath * Kanye West * System of a Down
The Black Keys * Jack White * Florence + the Machine (or Sigur Ros or something)

or

Black Sabbath * Red Hot Chili Peppers * The Black Keys
Jack White * Avicii * Justice

?

[thombjorke.]

Something closer to the second one, the first one is too awesome.

[IAmScareMongering]

Can't a young n*gga get money anymore?

[concertgoer]

If Sabbath is in then System Of A Down is out.

[WretchedSkye2113]

sabbath, yeezy, system, and jack white together is borderline 08-awesomeness for me, so i'll except the latter lineup.
in which case i still get sabbath and JW and am ecstatic, and can have a decent drunk time at TacoBurritoKing.

[Neader]

I would be ecstatic with the Throne, but more importantly what's TacoBurritoKing?

[arbee]

LOL

[WretchedSkye2113]

If Sabbath is in then System Of A Down is out.

i mean genre/crowd wise, yeah.
but logistically, no.

we had ratm and nin one year, so i'll keep dreaming. :)

[WretchedSkye2113]

but more importantly what's TacoBurritoKing?

the real TBK.

[Neader]

I just looked it up, I'm going to be all over that King Vegetarian Burrito.

[IAmScareMongering]

If Sabbath is in then System Of A Down is out.

Well Perry did say the lineup would be heavy...

[thombjorke.]

Well Perry did say the lineup would be heavy...

When did he say that?


edit: does this mean we're getting Adele?

[nikolajz1]

I won't be at Sabbath, but it is a cool get for sure.

[WretchedSkye2113]

When did he say that?

tweeted it a couple weeks ago.
don't remember the question but his response was something like "yeah! lolla is gonna be HEAVY!"

and we all assumed he was a moron and was referring to rhcp/tbk/louduntzuntz

[the crowing]

I won't be at Sabbath, but it is a cool get for sure.

This.

[WretchedSkye2113]

you are a disgrace to your username.

[Nile19]

I'm leaving the lineup threads until Tuesday night, then its lineup party time

[mgignac]

Final Prediction

Black Sabbath + Jay-Z(and/or)Kanye West + The Black Keys +
Smashing Pumpkins + Jack White + Justice

[Krentistthedentist]

Can't a young n*gga get money anymore?

Tell Perry my mink is draggin on the floor.

[nikolajz1]

Final Prediction

Black Sabbath + Jay-Z(and/or)Kanye West + The Black Keys +
Smashing Pumpkins + Jack White + Justice

That's actually pretty good if it happens.

[Nile19]

Final Guess
1 Black Sabbath
2 Blur
3 TBK

5 Avicii
6 Justice

[mgignac]

[Neader]

http://i39.tinypic.com/2zjhkr5.png

[IAmScareMongering]

My prediction remains unchanged.


Black Sabbath*The Killers*The Black Keys
Jack White*aviici*Justice

[concertgoer]

Friday
Jack White vs. Smashing Pumpkins

Saturday
The Black Keys vs. JayYe

Sunday
Black Sabbath vs. Justice

The Black Keys can only play on Friday.

[Krentistthedentist]

My prediction remains unchanged.

Jack White vs the Killers and that's a perfectly fine weekend

[concertgoer]

I am sticking with
Black Sabbath- Beyonce- The Black Keys
Jack White-Avicii- Justice

[IAmScareMongering]

Jack White vs the Killers and that's a perfectly fine weekend

I'd be really hoping for The Weeknd closing out a stage on Friday.

[mgignac]

The Black Keys can only play on Friday.

Thanks, I couldn't remember if it was Friday or Saturday. Just switch those two days, really.

[mgignac]

http://i39.tinypic.com/2zjhkr5.png

Hey you made a funny!

[WretchedSkye2113]

The Black Keys can only play on Friday.

or not at all!


...i'm just sayin'.

[IAmScareMongering]

or not at all!


...i'm just sayin'.

Yes please.

[brynrich]

I just started the Final Predictions thread. Let's make this shit official

[jcp]

The Black Keys can only play on Friday.

Or Sunday... Osheaga's daily lineup isn't out yet.

[Greg Nasty]

How many of you have even seen Sabbath before?

Die, poseur scum.

[Driftwood]

Yeah derp me - I meant fans lounge forum. Would have gotten more votes then (I voted for you).

You and JML have been the stars here out of those that don't post constantly. Kudos to both ofyou for being level headed. Hope you both return for the madness next year.

[here'slala]

Or Sunday... Osheaga's daily lineup isn't out yet.

It's on TBKs site that they're playing Sunday.

[WretchedSkye2113]

i'll move it to here instead of tainting (teehee) brybry's thread.

Sabbath unopposed Sunday because fucking Sabbath. someone like Florence + the Machine closing out the North stage at 6:30.
discuss.

if not, who would you say could play against Sabbath and pull a decent north side audience? edm acts, perhaps?

[Greg Nasty]

Remember when Sabbath would play Ozzfest regularly and lawn tickets were $10 and it would never sell out?

[brynrich]

Remember when Sabbath would play Ozzfest regularly and lawn tickets were $10 and it would never sell out?

:)

[nikolajz1]

Sabbath would be our smallest #1 ever, right?

[concertgoer]

C3 isn't going to want to have 95,000 people on the south field so I would expect the other three stages to be going. Justice would draw a good sized crowd against Sabbath.

[nikolajz1]

C3 isn't going to want to have 95,000 people on the south field so I would expect the other three stages to be going. Justice would draw a good sized crowd against Sabbath.

Justice would draw a bigger crowd than Sabbath. Sabbath is one of those bands like DM in 2009 that should be on the North, but wont.

[concertgoer]

Justice will not have a bigger crowd than Sabbath.

Uhh, maybe not $10 but they were cheap as shit.

Under $30, for sure.

[Broc1123]

More like:


so

Black Sabbath * Kanye West * The Black Keys
Jack White * Avicii * Justice

or

Black Sabbath * Red Hot Chili Peppers * The Black Keys
Jack White * Avicii * Justice

or

Black Sabbath * Red Hot Chili Peppers * The Black Keys
Jack White * Avicii * Florence/Sigur Ros

?

[SecondSet]

Not that it has anything to do with this thread or anything, but Phish is announcing more tourdates on Tuesday or Wednesday.

[MadBird11]

They already have a couple dates at Alpine Valley.

[SecondSet]

They already have a couple dates at Alpine Valley.

And they usually play a third date in Chicago as well.

[Greg Nasty]

How many Phish shows have you seen, SecondSet?

[Krentistthedentist]

Justice would draw a bigger crowd than Sabbath. Sabbath is one of those bands like DM in 2009 that should be on the North, but wont.

lolololol

[SecondSet]

If our sources are correct, it's hard to believe the top 6 will be anything other than Black Sabbath, RHCP, Black Keys, and Jack White plus two button-pushers. #colorfulpalooza

Willy, are you sure your RHCP source wasn't thinking ACLfest?

Agreed (and I'll pass, thanks). I still think Justice is not headliner material, so our keybonauts are SHM (or Kaskade or Bassnectar) and Avicii, unless Perry thinks WTT is electronic, which I doubt.

[SecondSet]

How many Phish shows have you seen, SecondSet?

I have a friend who's a big fan.

[Greg Nasty]

Me too.

Genghisnyc.

[Willy]

When did he say that?


edit: does this mean we're getting Adele?

Here is Perry's tweet -- "@perryfarrell: Thanks man- I won't. Lolla is going to be HEAVY! Rt @Yndyg0: Yeah don't listen to that. I can't wait to see the Lolla lineup!"

[thombjorke.]

Avicii could draw a bigger crowd than Sabbath, or at least a very sizable one.

[stealyourcarbon]

I had never even heard of the guy until I came back around here. Then I looked him up and found out he's playing a full house show at Target Center in May. I'm old.

[nikolajz1]

I had never even heard of the guy until I came back around here. Then I looked him up and found out he's playing a full house show at Target Center in May. I'm old.

[thombjorke.]

I've known about them forever but I thought everyone knew who they were after this:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkQ5rEJaTmk

[nikolajz1]

OMG the undercard for dat lineup.

[Isyourbedmade?]

OMG the undercard for dat lineup.

Yeah the undercard is pretty amazing but At the drive in headlining and florence NO WAY!

[MadBird11]

Names of bands.

But if it is, that lineup is #fappable.

[WretchedSkye2113]

http://mtv.uol.com.br/musica/conseguimos-o-line-up-oficial-do-lollapalooza-nos-eua

"original Red Hot Chili Peppers" is a good indication of bullshit.

[thombjorke.]

http://mtv.uol.com.br/musica/conseguimos-o-line-up-oficial-do-lollapalooza-nos-eua

Has anyone seen this.... :/

That looks pretty believable at first glance.

[nikolajz1]

Yeah the undercard is pretty amazing but At the drive in headlining and florence NO WAY!

There might be 2 surprises, or RHCP might play unopposed? Really awful headliners

[thombjorke.]

"original Red Hot Chili Peppers" is a good indication of bullshit.

I think what they're saying means "headliners of the original Lollapaloozas", no?

[MadBird11]

That's pretty messed up billing order wise too.

Also, Afghan Whigs are too cool to play Lolla.

[concertgoer]

http://mtv.uol.com.br/musica/conseguimos-o-line-up-oficial-do-lollapalooza-nos-eua

Has anyone seen this.... :/

Please be real

[Isyourbedmade?]

"original Red Hot Chili Peppers" is a good indication of bullshit.

I didn't even pay attention to that at first glance

[sleeping]

That looks pretty believable at first glance.
Agreed. I know better than to trust randoms on the internets, but I don't see anything I'm immediately skeptical of. I'd be extremely happy with that lineup.
Also, Afghan Whigs are too cool to play Lolla.
We've been good. We deserve them.

[WretchedSkye2113]

would be thrilled if that implied that AtDI is headlining, but if they were on the bill, they'd probably get the APC slot.

[MadBird11]

Can someone who sprekons the espanol translate the actual article?

[WretchedSkye2113]

Can someone who sprekons the espanol translate the actual article?

Portuguese, you twatface.
also, use google chrome.

That's in Portuguese, otherwise I would.

[MadBird11]

Agreed. I know better than to trust randoms on the internets, but I don't see anything I'm immediately skeptical of. I'd be extremely happy with that lineup.

Afghan Whigs made me cry bullshit on that.

[MadBird11]

also, use google chrome.

LIKE I GIVE A FUCK

[nikolajz1]

Afghan Whigs made me cry bullshit on that.

why?

[thombjorke.]

I'm almost 100% certain they weren't saying "the original Red Hot Chili Peppers", though.

[concertgoer]

Afghan Whigs made me cry bullshit on that.

Well they are playing that shitty festival in Cincinnati in July so......

[nikolajz1]

On 2nd glance there are a lot of 2010 bands

[thombjorke.]

The only thing that doesn't seem right about that list is the billing order but maybe that list just doesn't have the names in the exact official billing order.

[MadBird11]

Well they are playing that shitty festival in Cincinnati in July so......

Oh, forgot about that. Probably because it was shitty.

Anyway, translation makes it sound like one of the promoters just handed this to the dude in the field, which sounds sketchy to me for whatever reason.

[WretchedSkye2113]

I'm almost 100% certain they weren't saying "the original Red Hot Chili Peppers", though.

and Frusc def ain't playin.
and seriously, that order bugs me.

[concertgoer]

That Perry's lineup actually has some acts that I would be excited to see.

[concertgoer]

and Frusc def ain't playin.
and seriously, that order bugs me.

Maybe that isn't the billing order that will be on the official website?

[stealyourcarbon]

It could be real (and I think it probably is), but what makes me second guess is the shitty Word document with no formatting at all that looks like it was printed off of a $75 Lexmark that's running out of ink.

[sleeping]

I'm almost 100% certain they weren't saying "the original Red Hot Chili Peppers", though.
"Among the headliners of the original Lollapalooza are Red Hot Chili Peppers, the recently reunited Black Sabbath, Black Keys, ex-White Stripe Jack White, the English group Florence and the Machine and post-hardcore revivalists At The Drive-In."

[thombjorke.]

Also, couldn't this dude have taken like 5 seconds longer to take a clearer picture? Asshole.

[Isyourbedmade?]

Odd future isn't on it must be a total fake just thought i would inform

[dr. ace]

either i'm high or that's the lineup.

[concertgoer]

On 2nd glance there are a lot of 2010 bands

And there were a lot of 2009 bands on last years lineup.

[thombjorke.]

"Among the headliners of the original Lollapalooza are Red Hot Chili Peppers, the recently reunited Black Sabbath, Black Keys, ex-White Stripe Jack White, the English group Florence and the Machine and post-hardcore revivalists At The Drive-In."

That makes sense, the Brazilians now have a Lollapalooza so they refer to the Chicago one as "the original".

[concertgoer]

Odd future isn't on it must be a total fake just thought i would inform

Hmmm good point.

[IAmScareMongering]

So can anyone find any acts on there that can't be playing Lolla?

[MadBird11]

either i'm high or that's the lineup.

Maybe both? Medical reefer is pretty good.

[stealyourcarbon]

"Original" lollapalooza means the US version of it, since he got this info at the chile version.

Edit: what thomb said

[IAmScareMongering]

At The Drive In would be a bizarre choice for a headliner.

[WretchedSkye2113]

And there were a lot of 2009 bands on last years lineup.

YOU MEAN US FESTIVALS RECYCLE THE SAME LINEUP EVERY OTHER YEAR?
preposterous.

[thombjorke.]

At The Drive In would be a bizarre choice for a headliner.

Like I said, maybe that list isn't in the official billing order.

[concertgoer]

YOU MEAN US FESTIVALS RECYCLE THE SAME LINEUP EVERY OTHER YEAR?

:D

[carligula]

Does anyone see The Features on that list?

[MadBird11]

At The Drive In would be a bizarre choice for a headliner.

No it wouldn't. Especially if it's one of the last/the last reunion show.

[MadBird11]

Does anyone see The Features on that list?

Don't think so.

Go do your thing.

[nikolajz1]

No it wouldn't. Especially if it's one of the last/the last reunion show.

That crowd will be TINYYYY

[WretchedSkye2113]

Like I said, maybe that list isn't in the official billing order.

could be the 9 or 12 headliners sorta deal that chicity suggested.
6 standard slots with 3 or 6 subs that get 90 minute headlining sets.

or play an expanded grove closing set.

[thombjorke.]

Odd future isn't on it must be a total fake just thought i would inform


Does anyone see The Features on that list?

These Brazilians have met their match with the Lollapalooza lineup forum!

[Irving_Red]

I didn't see Justice on the list

[nikolajz1]

What happened to that one band nana said was playing this year from Chile?

[concertgoer]

I didn't see Justice on the list

Justice is on the list

[carligula]

I would be pretty happy with that lineup, by the way. If it's fake, it's still really close to what I'm expecting. Afghan Whigs were a big surprise.

http://i.imgur.com/sE8k7.jpg

[IAmScareMongering]

Remember the discussion Drifty and I had about the issues of bringing back RHCP if they weren't a #1?

[Irving_Red]

Justice is on the list

My bad then. I'm on the iPhone so I just skimmed it. Still skeptical though

[MadBird11]

I'd say it's 50/50 at this point.

Features were just a conversation, same with Steel Pulse. Tyler just answered a question via formspring, which we all should know sucks. And I don't know what a Kimbra is, so I bet it's not good.

[WretchedSkye2113]

well i'd get Sabbath and JW, so i'd be thrilled.
could deal with getting wasted and watching rhcp or tbk or maybe even florence.

annoyed if we do get atdi at this point because it devalues their coachella appearance. :p

[carligula]

Kimbra was an answer to the Lolla leaks.

Just noticed we have a parallel conversation in the semi-confirmed thread. Can we take this over there?

[MadBird11]

Sabbath, Jack White, At the Drive-In.

Yeah, I can fuck with that.

[Irving_Red]

Really confused if ATDI is actually a headliner. Even more wtf than Phoenix

[MadBird11]

Really confused if ATDI is actually a headliner. Even more wtf than Phoenix

Not really, no.

[carligula]

I'd be willing to bet money that ATDI will not have a 90(+) minute set on either of the two the main stages that will end after 9pm. I just don't see that happening.

[Krentistthedentist]

Fake.

[MadBird11]

I'd be willing to bet money that ATDI will not have a 90(+) minute set on either of the two the main stages that will end after 9pm. I just don't see that happening.

But wouldn't it be great if it did?

[Krentistthedentist]

Fake

[MadBird11]

Fake

Elaborate.

[nikolajz1]

Maybe this is a wacky pre-2007 billing, or they left out 2 surprise headliners for Tuesday night

[Greg Nasty]

I'd just like to see Sabbath and At the Drive-In on the same day and not go any other day.

[MadBird11]

I think the only thing everyone seems to be questioning is the order.

Can we all agree that everything on that list checks out at some level?

[WretchedSkye2113]

I'd be willing to bet money that ATDI will not have a 90(+) minute set on either of the two the main stages that will end after 9pm. I just don't see that happening.

agreed.

i don't doubt that the majority of the lineup is here, but i think there are headliners and subs being left off the list for the moment-- for whatever reason.

[nikolajz1]

I think the only thing everyone seems to be questioning is the order.

Can we all agree that everything on that list checks out at some level?

mhmm. Nothing shocking.

[MadBird11]

agreed.

i don't doubt that the majority of the lineup is here, but i think there are headliners and subs being left off the list for the moment-- for whatever reason.

Can't blow the load all at once.

[stealyourcarbon]

I think the only thing everyone seems to be questioning is the order.

Can we all agree that everything on that list checks out at some level?

Aside from lack of Kimbra and OF, yeah.

[Thisismyname]

IF this is real, I'm gonna assume they took our advice and are doing the "headliner" -> a night time act on the North stage.

So ATDI, Jack White, and Florence playing 6-830 and AVICII Justice and Sigur Ros playing 9-10. Or something close to that. Just sayin'.

[MadBird11]

It could just be a list.

[netta]

Anyone think MGMT will be there? Since they're coming out with a new album and all...

[MadBird11]

Anyone think MGMT will be there? Since they're coming out with a new album and all...

lulz, go back to the facebook page.

[carligula]

Keys vs ATDI -> Avicii
RHCP vs. Jack White
Sabbath vs. Florence->Justice

[carligula]

lulz, go back to the facebook page.

Let's try to be a little more welcoming, okay?

Although I have to say the MGMT questions are getting a bit insane.

[WretchedSkye2113]

Keys vs ATDI -> Avicii
RHCP vs. Jack White
Sabbath vs. Florence->Justice

all of atdi and part of tbk.


ok very happy with that.
just not how i pictured it happening.

[Thisismyname]

Keys vs ATDI -> Avicii
RHCP vs. Jack White
Sabbath vs. Florence->Justice

But you forgot Sigur Ros!

[Driftwood]

Also no Hives right?

[concertgoer]

Keys vs ATDI -> Avicii
RHCP vs. Jack White
Sabbath vs. Florence->Justice

That would work for me

[concertgoer]

Also no Hives right?

Were The Hives rumored?

[Greg Nasty]

At the Drive-In --> Avicii --> Sabbath aftershow at Empty Bottle.

Cool.

[carligula]

But you forgot Sigur Ros!

I forgot a lot of acts, that's the top 9 acts minus Shins (who will probably sub for Black keys or something).

Notice that they list Perry's separately with only a few acts that aren't EDM. Sigur Ros isn't one of them.

I forgot a lot of acts, that's the top 9 acts minus Shins (who will probably sub for Black keys or something).

Notice that they list Perry's separately with only a few acts that aren't EDM. Sigur Ros isn't one of them.

Er, yes, that's correct.

So you forgot Sigur Ros!

[Greg Nasty]

I'd rather see Sugar Ross.

Edit: Oh man, when you Google "Sugar Ross" it asks if you mean Sigur Ros. Cool.

[carligula]

Okay, fine:
Shins/Black Keys vs. ATDI/Sigur Ros vs. Basnectar vs. Miike Snow
Passion Pit/RHCP vs. Afghan Whigs/Jack White vs. Kaskade vs. The Weeknd
Florence/Sabbath vs Justice/Avicii vs. Santigold vs. M83

So were actually believing this? This is just a sheet of paper with possible band names and a Lollapalooza logo at the top, a monkey could make this. We have no reason to believe it even though it is entirely possible.

[thombjorke.]

Don't you think ATDI -> Sigur Ros and Florence -> Sabbath would be pretty jarring?

[thombjorke.]

It came from the MTV website! Legit!

Well it did supposedly come from Lolla Brazil so there's that.

Hmm, is this racist?

M83 can't play Lolla on Sunday
Friday is their only available date.

[WretchedSkye2113]

Hmm, is this racist?

RACIST.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

It's like.. Where are all the headliners? I count 2

[Greg Nasty]

Sabbath, RHCP, Avicii and Black Keys are all real headliners.

A couple of 'em also double as assliners, though.

[thombjorke.]

Jack White as well.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

I don't buy sabbath or Rhcp. Don't think sabbath would be into it, and Rhcp are playing the allstate

[Greg Nasty]

Jack White as well.

That skinny motherfucker with the high voice?

[Thisismyname]

idk where to post shit anymore.

But with this in mind...


Thought:

If there was a situation where Justice would say "fuck it, we'll play in the daytime", opening for Black Sabbath would probably be one of them. They like guitarz. Just sayin'.

Shins -> Black Keys vs. ATDI -> AVICII
Passsion Pit -> RHCP vs. M83 -> Jack White
Justice -> Sabbath vs. Florence -> Sigur Ros

Idk where the hell the Weeknd goes.

*Cause wasn't there some shit about Justice, Florence, and Sigur Ros all having to play Sunday?

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

Jack White as well.

Jack white solo is a headliner on a major? I'm not buying it.

Think if this is the lineup, my tix are for sale

[thombjorke.]

This doesn't really make sense. Just flip Justice and ATDI in your prediction and it would work out a lot smoother.

[stealyourcarbon]

Right. Because Meg was the big draw with the stripes.

[thombjorke.]

Guys, Jack White is playing Sasquatch and Hangout in the same slots that the Foo Fighters did last year. I'm pretty sure that makes him a real headliner.

[Greg Nasty]

Right. Because Meg was the big draw with the stripes.

She was BOTH of the big draws.

Amirite?

[Thisismyname]

Yeah, I just edited. If I remember correctly, Justice can only play Sunday.

*Yep

Derp

[carligula]

Derp indeed.

[Greg Nasty]

I don't like the lineup or anything, but I don't find it particularly surprising considering the last couple years.

Like, I don't get how anyone who had fun in 2k11 or 2k10 could look at this lineup and think, "yeah, this isn't for me."

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

White stripes would only possibly headline due to their present status

[carligula]

Greg gets it. If you're a Lollapalooza fan, then you should be a fan of that lineup.

[Greg Nasty]

White Stripes are a fucking huge band.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

Derp

I'm wrong? Great. Which festivals is jack white solo headlining?

The one that had Foo Fighters as a #1 and the one that had Paul Simon as a #3 last year.

[Krentistthedentist]

[MadBird11]

Buzz B. Word: Worst troll 2013.

Fuck, even Beefy Toe was beating him to it.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

Buzz, we're really too busy right now to put up with your shit.

Why is this troll bait? They never headlined the fest... The highest from any incarnation was the racs in the 6th non headliner spot.

I just don't think they'd be headliners without shutting it down.

[Krentistthedentist]

So The Weeknd/Jack White/Sabbath?

I can fuck.

[MadBird11]

Also, anybody who says that that lineup (real or fake) is worse than 2011 is fucking insane.

[concertgoer]

I'm wrong? Great. Which festivals is jack white solo headlining?

Sasquatch and Hangout. You do realize that he is playing White Stripes songs right?

[nikolajz1]

Hey Buzz, deadmau5 is headlining the south, right?

[carligula]

So The Weeknd/Jack White/Sabbath?

I can fuck.

But which one will you choose that night?

[Didier]

Interesting that so far there have been a few offhand comments about how this lineup might be fake but those same commenters can't elaborate on their reasoning for saying so.

This looks 100% legit to me. My only surprises are the inclusion of Afghan Whigs and the exclusion of Odd Future.

[concertgoer]

Hey Buzz, deadmau5 is headlining the south, right?

:D

[MadBird11]

The black, obviously.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

So, you're all in agreement? Jack white is big enough to headline lollapalooza? Even though he hasn't been booked by any majors, and is only getting the 3 slot on secondary and tertiary festivals?

[MadBird11]

You can't be this clueless
Smaller acts than Jack White have headlined the North field in past years.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

Ugh it's like talking to a brick wall.

I'm only asking because it's quite a leap to be headlining lollapalooza, based on logic containing the words "headlining hangout."

Its not an apples to apples comparison, and anyone who says otherwise has their head up their ass.

Is Beck not a Lollapalooza headiner? Is Wilco not a Lollapalooza headliner?

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

K... Which ones were smaller than jack white is right now in their year?

[MadBird11]

Arguably the biggest rock star in the world right now can't headline Lolla.

K Buzz.

[Krentistthedentist]

But which one will you choose that night?

Have you ever listened to the Weeknd?
I think having sex with him would be terrifying.

[concertgoer]

Did you miss the part where he was the #1 overall act at Sasquatch and that The Foo Fighters had that slot last year?

[Thisismyname]

and is #1 at Sasquatch

But yeah, no way is he on par with Phoenix, Wilco, or the Strokes!

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

Is Beck not a Lollapalooza headiner? Is Wilco not a Lollapalooza headliner?

Beck is bigger than Jack White solo.

Wilco are hometown heroes.

[MadBird11]

Oh, so Sasquatch has no credibility.

And yet he is billed below Jack White at Sasquatch.

The Dead Weather.

Not according to Sasquatch this year.

We haven't had a buzz moment in a while. I've almost missed them. Almost.

I wasn't aware this was 2009.

You're excited for Depeche Mode I take it.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

Oh, so Sasquatch has no credibility.

#problemsolved

You understand that Sasquatch has about 1/3rd the capacity of this festival, right?
More people attend lollapalooza on a single day than sasquatchs entire weekend.

You can see how this makes festivals like Sasquatch and hangout on a par less than a fest like lollapalooza, right?

[Thisismyname]

You literally can't think about more than one point at a time, can you?

Yeah, Sasquatch and Hangout could never book a Lolla headliner like Black keys, RHCP, Foo Fighters or Beck, guys. They're too small to hold all those fans!

Seriously, Buzz, just please go away.

[MadBird11]

Guys.

There's obviously no way that Jack White and Beck could maintain the same appeal they have in May 2012 to August 2012.

[TheCountofMonteDisco]

You guys dont seem to get that Sasquatch and Hangout are playing from the ladies tees, and somehow you think the final scores are equivalent.

[carligula]

Jack White is #1 at Sasquatch and #3 at Hangout. He'll be 4th or 5th at Lolla because Lolla is bigger. Can you get your head around that?
