I want to see a sing off between Britney Spears and Mike Patton on a Faith No More classic! Mike Patton is crazy enough to try and stage such a spectacle. No, for real I'm a huge Mike and Faith No More fan and I hope they do reunite and rock the shit...

Really, besides epic, name me 1 or 2 other faith mo more songs?(that I may have actually heard before) I guess I'm the only guy who can't get excited about bands like Faith no more, portishead, love and rockets, any other washed up band attempting to make a comeback to an audience that was about 5 years old when they were in thier prime. I'd rather see beyonce than brittany, but that's just me. It's just a matter of time before Coachella is headlined by Nickleback, Lil wayne, lil zane, and lil half-dead.

I think bubba666 meant to say "keep your bad grammar off my jambase!! YOU'RE so stupid." Poor timing for a grammatical error, huh?

Fleet Foxes would be worth checking out.

Wow bubba, you are pissed! Not really sure why, but man that's pretty funny... this is just a news item, a rumor-based one - not some big feature on a band. This isn't trying for "journalistic craftmanship" - it's a news blurb to get info out... but again, more often than not it seems people are just looking for something to whine about.

Well... if these are actual leaks than it is news... but posting rumurs, which jambase does often is kinda stupid... I sent them a quick bit of info I wrote last night and nothing is posted... I didnt write an article... but an initial artist line-up for 10,000 lakes festival in MN has been leaked. It is, so far, Widespread Panic, Wilco, Dave Matthews Band, Trampled by Turtles and Wookiefoot... but they didnt post anything, but post on Coachella rumors, interesting... anyways, if you want up to date news, info, discussion boards, rideshare, videos and photos of 10,000 lakes festival, with some rothbury news in there when or if it comes... check out this facebook group....

ohh... and I can understand blasting jambase for grammar... but they get articles submitted from random people... so, they should maybe edit the articles first or just use news from the articles, etc... and it is funny that Bubba, who complained the most about grammar, etc... then did the classic "your stupid." I just thought that was funny... heres a hint, if you can substitute 'you are' then it is supposed to be 'you're' otherwise your is a possessive term... im no grammar wonk, but at least I know not to criticize mistakes and then make my own...

Not sure about this lineup but faith no more is amazing live. One of my favorite shows ever was Melvin’s, faith no more and primus at this little club in Houston called the axiom in like 92, also saw them with guns and Metallica if you have never seen them live pray they come to a city near you.

why don't you ever stay on topic bubba666(may the lord bless your soul). instead of focusing on grammatical errors why don't you focus on the article. and i don't mean the actual article but rather what is on the inside of the article. after all that is what counts. so while you are busy playing english teacher the rest of us will be partying down at Britney. more dancing room for us. you shall succumb bubba666

bubba... im not sure how calling me stupid is purposeful... I was just making an observation that your complaints are humorous because of the grammatical mistakes in your complaint about grammatical mistakes... but, everyone can have their opinon, god bless you... coachella last year, I didnt go, but it seemed awesome!! I do have the live prince at coachella and that blew me away!!! confucious... if reporting rumors wasnt news than a lot of news wouldn't get printed... rumors with some credibility to them, I am not sure if these rumors have credibility or not... but those rumors are news... I could take a hundred examples of rumors in news probably from news printed in the past week...

Hold up..... One, I've seen grammatical errors on the site before but I'm not reading the New York Times so I'm not harping there. On the contrary, this festival has had some great acts before. I guess Jam base is being told by their readers that they just want the jam scene.

Personally, I like the site trying to spread out but Jam kids are the core of support. Nothing but respect but I have a suggestion for Dennis and company. I guess it is time to have another site ALL MUSIC BASE... Call it whatever. Every time there is an article about a band that is not jam or fest someone flips out. I love music and I thought that was what jam was about ( To bring all forms of music together) but it seems to be highly offensive to people here. Cochella is not a jam fest. I bet a lot of these bands are on the bill otherwise the site would not have reported it. Brittany certainly brings something out of people doesn't she... Just an observation

i like most of the 'rumoured' acts, but otherwise peanut butter wolf (sick-ass hip hop beats, for those who care) and no age are good.

and also can we all agree that girl talk, while maybe even par for people who like novelty gimmicky bullshit, is really really bad; like if you were actually sitting at home, seriously throwin' down some girl talk, you are like, totally gay as all get-out...

This reeks of shoddy journalism, but I suppose we should wait until the real lineup comes out so we can compare and see how accurate the rumors are. i don't think anyone should be surprised about the popiness of coachella. they've always been slanted toward the mainstream.

No way faith no more will reunite, especially not the real FNM with Jim Martin. Better chance of Mr. Bungle reunion. I did see Mike Patton with Peeping Tom (sans Rhazel) at coachella in 2007. Danny Devito came out and introduced the band, it was quite a spectacle. Mike Patton also commented on how bad some of the other musicians were.

I can't believe you people waste your time complaining about Jambase posting rumors! I mean, really??? They did not present it as fact, so what's the problem? Some rumors turn out to be facts, and they have to start from somewhere. I like hearing rumors-makes for some good talk and speculation. And all you people do too, else there wouldn't have been so many comments so far. Do you people REALLY have nothing else to get angry over than a damn article on a fuckin' website? And if you're going to attack someone for being grammatically incorrect, PLEASE do yourself a favor and use proper punctuation and capitalization in your nutty crackers rant.

^^ I sure will. It's "YEMOLLY," not "YEMMOLLY." And actually, I could care less if someone is using bad grammar and is sounding like an idiot. BUT when someone is bithing about someone else's bad grammar, I think it only makes sense to use proper grammar yourself (after all, it's what you're bitching about anyway). B/c if you don't, people aren't going to take you seriously. But you're right, the grammar issue was stupid to bring up in the first place.

Hey Bern, your right I haven't heard of any of those bands but I like the styles mentioned. How much is this LYMEF and Missoula is in Montana right?

As for all you angry hipsters and hippies furiously scratching your beards (both ironic and not). I think what I have always thought about Coachella and all its major indie band festivals...they generally lack what makes an outdoor event like that fun. Everybody is so caught up in judging each other that no one takes the time to enjoy themselves beyond bragging about who has a bigger vinyl collection or how My Morning Jacket or Of Montreal keep selling out. And trust me, I'm not just saying that because I don't like 90% of the rumored line-up, I say it because I've been to many different kinds of music festivals from folk to electronic to indie to jam.

Also, since it hasn't been said yet I figured I'll put it out there for everybody that doesn't understand why Britney Spear would make the line-up...it has to do with this uncanny hipster irony of a major pop singer like Britney playing at a indie festival like this. I just think its funny because she doesn't even write her own songs and hipsters love talking about originality even though indie music is rarely original.

Attention to all interested parties on the east coast the best indie festival in the country is a 3 day event in NYC during the fall and it will never be on JamBase because no one has ever heard of the bands that are involved outside of Brooklyn or San Fran. The name alludes me rightnow but its pretty cheap if you buy your tickets a year a head of time(which is what I did a few years back).
