The Rolling Stones have been a heavy favorite for Coachella 2013, especially after the Indio, CA festival was briefly listed in the Tour section of the band’s mobile app.
However, in a new interview with RollingStone.com which took place in late December, Mick Jagger claimed that the band has yet to be approached by Coachella organizers. He also swore no knowledge of why the Coachella listing appeared on their mobile app. Jagger added, “I always said that we’d see how this would go,” referring to the band’s recent string of 50th anniversary concerts, “then we’d think about doing more – or not.”
Discussing their 2013 tour plans in general, Jagger said, “There have been quite a few offers. I’m going to see what’s on the table and discuss it with everyone. We’ll announce it when we’ve figured it out.”
Coachella 2013 takes place over two weekends from April 12th-14th and April 19th-21st at Indio’s Empire Polo Grounds.

HOW DID WE GET THE NICKNAME "COPE" AND "THE COPE"
Early on I was always the youngest deejay at most stations I worked at. Needless to say they called me Junior or Joo-ney. One day I walked up to my boss, the program director, and said "you know, I really don't appreciate being called Joo-ney!"
The next day he came in and started calling me "Cope" (short, of course, for Coppola) and it stuck. The "The" was added as an alternate to honor "The Fonz" from Happy Days. I always thought he was a cool character. And when you're dressing for the Rock 'n Roll lifestyle you feel like "The Fonz." Also should give props to "The Belz" Richard Belzer the comedian/actor his "The" influenced me as well...so I opted to be the 3rd "The" in the series. But let's not forget the "The" in "The KGB" may have been before "The Fonz."
