Coachella 2006 was crazy, imagine having Madonna & Daft Punk both on a lineup not headlining, as well as Tool and Depeche Mode.

I think on the locations section that was taken down:

McFly - 3rd

Mesh - main

 

Apoc - 4th

Cradle - 4th

 

Lorna - 2nd

Sikth - 4th??

 

What’s this? Any more?

It is quite the niche crossover in the current Coachella era. But if anything, suggests how good a booking it is for Download.

I don't think it does really, they are doing a lot of festivals they would usually get booked for in that period over here anyway, Download just luckily got them this time. Weezer makes the difference but Coachella haven't waited as long for Weezer at Download or any other British place have.

How do Weezer factor into Green Day being a good booking for both Coachella and Download?

I’ve listened to the Poppy album 2-3 times a day since Saturday. I absolutely love it. It’s SO good.

Does Meshuggah getting moved up to a logo band possibly mean they thought they had a band for third down on main Sunday to announce in the second wave but they dropped out so they've bumped Meshuggah up?

It could mean that but I assume that the three third down bands are Jimmy Eat World, Don Broco and Spiritbox so I think it could likely mean they’ve put them subbing Second on one of the days.

I’ve added some bands in with an asterisk next to them: 
 

APEX: Green Day / Weezer / Jimmy Eat World / Yellowcard* / Boston Manor / The Warning* / Yours Truly* 

 

OPUS: Within Temptation / Meshuggah / Jerry Cantrell 

 

AVALANCHE: Lorna Shore (or Bury Tomorrow*) 

 

DOGTOOTH: SikTh / Fit For An Autopsy 

 

 

APEX: Sleep Token / Falling In Reverse* / Don Broco / Poppy / Knocked Loose* / Loathe / SiM / Static Dress 

 

OPUS: Sex Pistols / The Darkness / Eagles of Death Metal 

 

AVALANCHE: McFly / Mallory Knox 

 

DOGTOOTH: Cradle of Filth / Whitechapel 

 

 

APEX: KoRn / Bullet For My Valentine / Spiritbox / Jinjer / Malevolence* / Bleed From Within / Orbit Culture / Make Them Suffer* 

 

OPUS: Steel Panther / Til Lindemann* / Airbourne

 

AVALANCHE: letlive. / Me First and The Gimme Gimmes
 

DOGTOOTH: Apocalyptica / Kittie

 

 

My thinking behind Lorna Shore headlining the Avalanche is that they’re a proper buzzy band who have a lot of crossover with the metalcore crowd that is usually catered for quite well on that stage.
