    Coachella 2008

    Im a bit disappointed in the headliners this year, but most likely will be going Sat - Sun! (If I can find the justification to pay that much to go. Shits like $70ish per day.

    http://a382.ac-images.myspacecdn.com...4b543e4f3d.jpg

    Bands Im looking forward to the most: Portishead, Deathcab, Rilo Kiley, M.I.A., VHS or Beta, Sebastian, Uffie, Metric, Justice, Chromeo, Les Savy Fav.

    Friday has *some* good names, but not enough I guess...

    Who here from California goes to these? :D

    Judging from the sign he's going to play Dark Side of the Moon. That's not his solo stuff.

    Minus the Bear would be a huge reason for me to go on Friday, and Aesop Rock/Vampire Weekend/Mum. But meh, I dont know who I could get to come on Friday for such a weak line up in general.

    Did you get my picture mails yesterday?

    Minus The Bear should be enough for anyone to go, especially since they're breaking up soon. You need to know some people who don't suck

    Also, I texted you back saying they didn't work

    I saw Roger Waters back in August. He played all the Pink Floyd hits(except DSoTM) then then second half was the entire album cover to cover. He finished with the wall which everyone went fucking nuts over.


    its actually looking pretty good, Jack Johnson or Roger waters would be enough to make me want to go. But its too far

    This year has just about all my favorite "girl singer" bands. Rilo Kiley, Portishead, and Metric are all pretty awesome to see live.

    i was ready to buy plane tickets months ago with the rumors of my bloody valentine but that never worked out i guess. i'm not disappointed in the lineup but i'd be much more excited w/them playing.

    Re: Coachella 2008

    i'll be honest, the line up(short of the 'oh hay roger waters looks pretty cool') is kinda weak this year, considering previous years have had bloc party, interpol, the go! team, etc.

    i would say that unless you completely HATE jack johnson's music, which is ok, everyone's entitled to their opinion, he puts on a great live show. also, the only band that really blew my mind on there that would make it worth a 70 dollar ticket is the swell season. for those who don't know, that's glen hansard from the frames and marketa irglova(the couple who acted in, wrote the music for, and performed the songs from the movie 'once'), and while i'd rather see the frames live, they are bloody brilliant.

    and yeah, cold war kids are great, and so are flogging molly. otherwise there's just not a ton of bands on there that do it for me, although i'm told that sharon jones and the dap kings put on a hell of a show(the dap kings are marc ronson's go-to group for production, they've done most of the back up music for amy winehouse, lily allen, and several of his solo albums).

    but yeah, for the most part i looked over the list of bands and thought 'oh hay, madness... i could hear 'one step beyond' and then go get a beer.'

    and i know im going to get mauled for this, but death cab for cutie are fucking awful live. they used to tour with a friend of a friend's band named the dismemberment plan(who were amazing), and other than clever tour names like 'the death and dismemberment tour,' the dismemberment plan blew them off the stage every night. plus, yknow, less high school emo girls lol.

    it's a moot point for me, im in dc, and the last decent festival we got here was the tibetan freedom concert and some poor fucker had to go get hit by lightning at that.
