    Beyonce pregnant with twins. Judging by her instagram post, I'd assume she's 4-5 months pregnant, so will be ~7 or so months pregnant come Coachella.

    I'd assume she sticks in - she knew she was pregnant this time last month and they wouldn't have dropped the lineup if she knew she'd have to drop.

    Only Roc Nation artists who would fit would probably be Jay-Z or Rihanna with maybe J Cole or T.I. - but the latter two wouldn't make sense unless I'm missing something.

    Other who knows; Solange, Frank Ocean, the Weeknd, dunno.

    jay-z would be my first guess. i don't think she's collaborated with cole/t.i.

    Good.

    Question is, who do they try to replace her with? I'd love to see Metallica. A like-for-like would be alright too, with someone like Adele or Gaga (her superbowl show was great).


    But I think they'll take the easy way out and book some generic EDM dj headliner.

    My guess is Metallica as of right now.

    They're going to be in the middle of their tour then (with the availability) so will be active. They are a legitimate #1 type replacement. Supposedly The Who dropped at the last minute in 2010 and were replaced with Jay-Z and Black Sabbath dropped right before the poster was released in 2012 and they replaced with Dre/Snoop. So that's more evidence of Coachella liking to book hard/classic rock as well as not sticking to specific genres when making a replacement.

    Plus, I think replacing her with pretty much any pop star would be a bummer. Adele and Gaga are the only two that I think could really match Beyonce and Adele seems like she's starting a quiet period and Gaga's tour won't be ready until the summer. Frank Ocean, Chance, or even Rihanna just seem like a big step down.

    I can dig it. I'd prefer it to Chance/Frank Ocean/Rihanna/Mumfords, neutral to Justin Timberlake, and probably slightly below Metallica. If those were the 7 realistic options, her being 2nd or 3rd on my list, could have been worse.

    I'll watch the first 45 mins of her set and if it isn't wowing me, I'll go to a tent at midnight for a closing show. Not the epic, amazing Beyonce experience I was looking forward to, but it could be worse.

    Would like another couple adds as a sign of goodwill though...

    Not sure if anyone else reads/posts on the Coachella boards, but there's threads over there predicting the set times each year based on history and anticipated guesses. Here's the current predicted clashfinder for Friday (just change URL for other two days). It usually just causes mental anguish thinking about conflicts this far in advance, but is fun to kill time and think about before mid-April.

    Skepta, D.R.A.M., and TSOL added to the lineup among about 10-15 additional smaller acts. Not mega adds by any means, but larger than traditionally happens at this point.

    Wristbands also shipping for Weekend One; I got my e-mail today.

    Someone on reddit said they got a weekend two shipment e-mail today

    If you feel uncomfortable, you can call their line just to confirm it's coming... I did that a month or so ago when the data breach leak thing came out and they said I was fine

    Not really nervous yet, but that help line was worthless for one of us last year. My buddy never got his wristbands shipped and we had to go to will-call Thursday morning

    Thankfully they didn't hassle us on it and we got it with relative ease

    Done:

    -Tickets received in the mail
    -Money collected from 15 of the 16 people staying in our house
    -Paid off the house on VRBO
    -Created a budget for a $1,500 food/booze Costco run for the weekend

    To do:

    -Need 4 more passes for people in our house (including two flying in...)
    -Sent an e-mail to confirm we're all good with our VRBO host after sending the payment earlier this week. She never responded so I'm a little nervous, but probably not a big deal...

    How much is it per person for the VRBO?

    Whole house rental was ~$4,600 for 4 nights including all the miscellaneous fees they hit you with. We originally budgeted for 14 people and set $350 per person on a bed and $300 per person on a couch/air mattress/ground.

    We've since added 2 more people, which is an extra $600, so I'll either send everyone back ~$30-40 or just keep it as the cost of doing business for organizing and putting an extra $1k of my money at risk in terms of security deposit.

    House is 4 bedroom with a pool and about 2 miles from the festival. Similar houses were going for $1,500-2,000 per night online when we booked last summer, so think it's a good deal. I'm a little nervous because the house is listed on Zillow as for sale though, so on the off-chance they sell before the festival we'd be really dicked right now (though she stands to make $12-14k by holding onto the house since it's booked WK1, WK2, and Stagecoach, so imagine at this point she just holds it).

    If your proper address is in there, I think you're fine. I'd say by mid-to-late next week if you don't have them, that's when I'd start reaching out to people wondering what's going on. A couple times I had to wait very long and it sucks, but a random process I think.

    No it isn't legal to buy yet without a card. It is only legal to carry.

    If you want the high quality medical stuff you need to have someone with a medical card buy it for you and then gift it to you. Legally you aren't allowed to buy it from them.
