Yes. The Stones and Radiohead have worked together for the last eight years to establish an egalitarian joint touring schedule based on a 'spread the love'-type philosophy.
That seems pretty far fetched...
I was thinking more like if Coachella burns 5 million on the stones then maybe they wouldn't have enough for Radiohead as well.(unless they plan on not having an undercard)

This is only speculation (so in other words a pointless post), but...
I think the Stones would see playing Coachella as a two fold windfall in terms of cash money. They will still receive a pretty penny, but maybe not an amount that would cripple the fest's chance at still getting 2 more big headliners. The reason this works for them is exposure to one of the most easily manipulated audiences who are still giving money to the music industry. Being associated with the "Cool Coachella", especially if they are being presented as the grandfathers of the Strokes and what not will no doubt boost their relevancy (briefly) among young people. By relevancy I mean, people buying their shit.

That's funny, mothmonsterman, I don't know WHAT to expect from you because I don't know who the hell you are. That was my little way of saying I'm jealous. Hating on your dear old Horned Gramma is so five minutes ago, by the way. Tres gauche.

WE ALREADY SPENT OUR FIVE MILLION DOLLARS, MISTER COACHELLA, WE JUST CAN'T AFFORD THE RADIOHEADS.

well it seems pretty clear: Radiohead is the obvious winner, but modest mouse is in a close second. couldn't we could come up with something a little more original than that?! I'm so sick of hearing about radiohead. It's like radiohead this radiohead that. I'm beginning to think this band doesn't exist. maybe we should just call this forum the unofficial radiohead fan board.

Yes, nothing more funny than another misogynistic asshole in the making with 10 year girls learning that being sexy solely constitutes as fulfilling a degrading male fantasy (i.e. the under aged video girls)
More than anything I'd like to see Roger Waters performing 'The Wall'. That show is the epitome of hugeness. I've wanted to see it since I was like nine years old.
Realistically, it's such a ridiculous idea that I wouldn't even verbalize it if we weren't playing make-believe.
