Honestly this is not a mind shattering prediction, but I predict that De La Soul and Gorillaz get on stage together Sunday night at Coachella. They are both scheduled to play on Sunday April 18th. Also no one can forget the "Feel Good Inc." collaboration, and I can't imagine the Gorrilaz doing a show and not playing that song. That and De La Soul and the Gorrilaz have teamed up again for a new song called "Superfast Jellyfish". Also on the track is the Gruff Rhys the lead singer of Super Furry Animals, and terrific Welsh band my dad introduced me to. You can check out the new Gorillaz song on their youtube page... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4UtbrbsrjY
This seems like more than a coincidence. A month and a half before they both happen to be playing the same festival on the same day a new single comes out? Also, knowing the Gorillaz, this track is going to be huge. You couldn't get away from Feel Good Inc. in 2005. My real question is, how is this going to take place? The Gorillaz is an animated band and I believe that when they do lives shows they play behind a giant silk screen or something that have the animated characters projected on it. I am dying to see this in person. I want to know is will De La Soul come out as themselves or as those giant animated monsters from the music videos? I for one would love to see them come out on stage. Half the fun of seeing a band live is watching how they play to a crowd, I am beyond intrigued by the Gorillaz style of live show, but I think that adding real life humans will make it even more dynamic.

Also, starting today you can stream the entirety of the Gorillaz's new album "Plastic Beach" through NPR. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=124114812
