With the festival season right around the corner, the rumor mill is turning. Earlier today, Gigwise reported that concert promoter Golden Voice is currently courting David Bowie for the headline spot at this year’s Coachella Festival. Following in the footsteps of Roger Waters’ Dark Side Of The Moon set from last year, the article claims Golden Voice has asked him to perform his glam-rock classic The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust in its entirety.

Before you start booking that trip out to California, NME is currently denying that this will happen. Then again NME has a history of being wrong themselves. There’s no official word on when the Coachella lineup will be revealed, but what we do know is that the fest will take place from April 17 – 19 at the Empire Polo Field in Indio, CA.

So is the Thin White Duke performing Ziggy Stardust enough to get you out to the desert this year? Leave your thoughts in the comments section…
