It's not tough to get Underworld at all. They're not some "rare, impossible to see" act. I'm simply saying that they've been heavily rumored for years, heavily asked for for years, but aren't being booked for the past few Coachellas. In addition, they don't have any new material out and aren't putting anything out around that time that will warrant the trouble it takes to come out here.

If they get booked, I'll give you my right nut.

Kindly explain their failed attempts at getting Boards of Canada.

Unfortunately, going to be missing it this year (first time since 2001): my brother planned his wedding that weekend (argh.)


About Underworld, when I talked to Karl in NY in 2008, he said it was really tough for him to tour in the US because of the pound-dollar conversion rate. But, then, they planned 6 North American shows last year...


I'd bet that they'd be a no for this year (after being in the states twice), but they did want to make up their show because of the Hard Summer mess-up...

Busy, busy, busy.

Id say that the few acts that could pull me out there would be a pink floyd reunion or roger waters show, shpongle, red hot chili peppers, and an overall well put together EDM linup.

I'm so there. I've been the past 3 years and it never fails to amaze, no matter who's playing almost. We should get the lineup by the 26th, I believe.
In response to a previous post regarding projected acts: both tiesto and underworld have been rumored. If Tiesto plays this time around, I'd hope it would be in the Sahara rather than at the main stage. I haven't heard Guetta's name bounced around and I'd almost rather he wouldn't be there.
How about a Lady Gaga performance in the Sahara??...like Maddona did a few years back. Hate all you want that shit would be quite enjoyable (and you know it).
Laidback Luke could be great! And 2manydjs??? That would be fuckin spectacular

Hoping for Eric Prydz to get booked.

They did Daft Punk,Depeche, Madonna in 06. Roger Waters performing DSOTM,Prince, Portishead,Fatboy Slim, Kraftwerk in 08, the Peppers, Bjork, and Rage in 07 and there's a good chance that shpongle will be there this year. The biggest rumor regarding the EDM for Coach this year is Orbital. We'll find out in a week or 2 when the lineup is out.

all the acts i care to see have been through already in recent years but I was never up for it. Thats why the chances of me heading out are slim. Fat boy slim would be another reason for me to go. But Shpongle would be the deal maker, or like i mentioned another appearance by roger waters or RHCP.

looks like lcd soundystem will be there
