The official announcement of the lineup for The 2015 Coachella Music and Arts Festival is still most likely 2 months away – but the internet is full of speculation of who might be performing this year (Reverend Horton Heat does appear to be the one act performing that may have already leaked).

One rumor picking up steam is that The Foo Fighters will be headlining on one night of the three-day festival. And why does the speculation over Dave Grohl and company coming to Indio make sense?

Well, The Foo Fighters just released dates for their 2015 world tour which begins in South Africa next month and ends in Chicago in August. But, as Reddit points out, if you look closely at the lineup you will notice:

  1. There is no scheduled tour stop on the West Coast (yet)
  2. The band has no scheduled dates in April (when Coachella Fest is held)

More North American tour dates are expected and could be released as early as next week – at which point music fans everywhere will be looking to see if there is still that April gap in the schedule.

The Foo Fighters previously played Coachella in 2002.
