Recommended Posts

I would love this as the setlist!

 

1. Hey Baby

2. Just A Girl 

3. Settle Down

4. It's My Life

5. Hella Good

6. **NEW SONG**

7. Don't Speak

8. Underneath It All

9. Running 

10. Simple Kind of Life 

11. Spiderwebs

 

As much as I would love to hear Wind It Up, 4 In The Morning, Used To Love You, Early Winter, Cool and Fluorescent, there is plenty of actual No Doubt songs to pick from instead of solo Gwen. If anything, I can see them throwing in a Gwen medley of Hollaback Girl/The Sweet Escape.

It’s long been a tradition for bands to reunite for Coachella.  Jane’s Addiction reunited for Coachella 2001, in an effort to help the festival get back on its feet after having to skip the year 2000 due to huge financial losses from its 1999 inaugural event.  Paul Tollett, the president and chief executive of Goldenvoice, who started Coachella in 1999, likes to pull off the impossible.  Pixies lead singer Frank Black informed his bandmates that he quit via fax in 1993—by this point, he and bassist Kim Deal weren’t even on speaking terms, and that silence stuck for over a decade.  11 years later, the Pixies reunited for Coachella 2004.  Rage Against the Machine reunited for Coachella 2007, seven years after their breakup. 

 

When asked about the possibility of a Guns N’ Roses reunion in 2012, Axl responded “not in this lifetime”—but Paul Tollett kept trying.  “When I go for [a band] that’s not together, I never lead with the money, because it offends those artists,” Tollett said. “It can turn them off and the communication stops.  Not because of the number, it’s just because commerce is the first discussion.”  Slash did a guest appearance with Motorhead at Coachella 2014, and got a taste of Coachella’s atmosphere, and the seeds were planted for Guns N’ Roses to reunite for Coachella 2016.  Even after the announcement, fans were dubious the band would actually show up.  It’d been 20 years since Axl and Slash shared the stage together.  But after these artists experience performing their classic songs to multi-generational audiences in excess of 125,000 attendees… after they do it once, they realize they can do it again.  And, these days, they’re contractually obligated to do it again as Coachella is now the biggest-grossing music festival in the U.S.; so big that it happens with the same line-up two weekends in a row.  After their respective January line-up announcements, come April, each of these impossible-to-reunite bands would embark on reunion tours. 

 

Funnily enough, many of the Coachella-spawned reunions have latest longer than the time the bands were initially together. Pavement, who reunited for Coachella 2010, however “stuck to their guns” and refused to continue their reunion beyond the festival, but for anyone that was there, it was a magical moment in music history.  Iggy Pop & The Stooges reunited for Coachella 2003, Bauhaus reunited for Coachella 2005, At the Drive-In reunited for Coachella 2012, and OutKast reunited for Coachella 2014. 

 

Guns N’ Roses post-Coachella reunion “Never In This Lifetime” tour, which went on to be the second-highest grossing tour of all time (behind U2’s 360° tour), was announced March 25th, 2016 (a little over two weeks before the Coachella reunion would take place).  G N’ R evaded Coachella’s infamous radius clause (which prevents Coachella acts from performing in Los Angeles or San Diego within a certain window of time surrounding the festival) by playing a warm-up show at the 500-capacity Troubadour on April 1st, before playing two sold out shows at Las Vegas’ new T-Mobile Arena, which has a capacity of 28,849, the weekend before Coachella 2016.  And the 175 date tour that followed their two-weekend Coachella performances. 

 

This year’s festival will see SoCal’s own No Doubt reuniting for the first time in 9 years, after—by many accounts—not being on speaking terms for the majority of that time.  The news of the Orange County band’s reunion has been met with an overwhelmingly positive response in the press, leading many fans to wonder if they’ll announce more shows… but, right now, No Doubt is fulfilling it’s part of the agreement by selling tickets to the festival.  The radius clause means they won’t be playing any arenas in LA in the surrounding months, at least not officially.  Four nights before headlining the televised Global Citizen festival in New York on September 27th 2014, No Doubt played an off-the-books “friends and family” show at The Forum in Los Angeles’ neighboring Inglewood, with many of its biggest fans getting free tickets as even Gwen Stefani doesn’t have 17,000 friends and family.  Whether it’s a secret LA show, or a warm up jaunt in Vegas, one can assume No Doubt isn’t gonna hit the Coachella main stage for their highly anticipated return without warming up—but when and where, and will the reunion lead to more shows, are answers we likely won’t have until late March or April.  More often than not, the reunited band stays together, but only time will tell.
