Original Story: Rumors have circulated for several weeks now that Coachella organizers are plotting a major October festival in Indio, Calif. with rock ‘n’ roll greats such as the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Paul McCartney, The Who and Rogers Waters. In recent days, five of the six acts posted ‘October’ teases hinting toward the dream concert.
The only artist listed above yet to post a tease is Neil Young.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the October Coachella concert doesn't have an official name yet. The LA Times says the Coachella-run mega concert will take place Oct. 7-9. It is also reportedly the first time McCartney and Dylan have shared the same bill in their legendary careers.
The schedule for the Coachella mega concert will reportedly feature Dylan and the Stones on Oct. 7, Young and McCartney on Oct. 8 and The Who and Roger Waters on Oct. 9.
Tickets for the McCartney, Stones, Dylan, Young, Wates and The Who concert have not been formally announced. If prices are similar to Coachella, that means music fans will shell out in the neighborhood of $399 for a three-day pass. VIP passes for Coachella 2016 started at $899.
