The lineup for Coachella 2010 was posted a few days ago, looks to be pretty sick.

Anyone else planning on going? If so, who are you interested in seeing most?

**Lliandra** · 2010-01-21 09:35

Amagawd, i'd be torn between Friday and Sat. Love deadmau5 but 2ManyDJ's, Kaskade and Tiesto on sat >_<

Good job i don't live anywhere remotely near this or i'd be mildly upset XD

**TacoTaru** · 2010-01-21 09:49

I would kill a child to go to that<_<

Unfortunately my lady is student teaching and I don't think she's allowed to miss any days while doing so, so I there's very little chance I'll be going.

Oh yeah bands I'm most excited about. Probably LCD Soundsystem and Gorillaz, although I've never seen Dillenger live so that should be good too. Jay-Z, Muse, Hot Chip, Vampire Weekend I'd be stoked on too.

And surely that can't be the Devo I think it is?

**grantlogan** · 2010-01-21 12:56

Holy shit at all the acts they have. I must go! As I was reading the list I kept seeing performers I would pay good money to see by themselves and then I saw Pavement. Now I have to go.

edit:
Ok here's the groups I would love to see: Fever Ray, La Roux, Little Dragon, Muse, MGMT, The Dead Weather, Sia, Gorillaz, Thom Yorke(wtf at the ???s next to his name), Florence and the Machine & PAVEMENT.

Devo

**ClarkSammich** · 2010-01-21 17:08

I went to Coachella about 4 years ago.
I can't believe how much the line up sucks now, people should feel bad about being excited for this.

Spoiler: show

Cool story bro

Granted its no '06, but the reason to go to Coachella isn't the headliners (never has been). They have a really good selection of indie bands every year, most of whom don't tour the US often, limit their tours to the circuit cities (NY, LA, Chicago, Atlanta ect.) or the random reunion. Add that to the general experience, the art, the parties, ect ect...its a really fun event regardless of who's playing.

This year you have bands like The XX, The Cribs, Baroness, Vampire Weekend, Mew, Beach House, Tokyo Police Club, MGMT, Pheonix, Justice (as Club 75) ect.

**Haiko** · 2010-01-21 21:19

So I take it that their selling only 3-day tickets? I am only interested on day 3

**Chocoboy** · 2010-01-21 21:28

Fuck I didn't even see Club 75 on there.

And fuck I didn't even realize you lived in Florida, who the hell am I supposed to stay with now. fuuuuuffasdjfasldjf Q Q Q Q

Dude if I lived in Cali, I'd be in fucking heaven.

Just get some friends, and split a hotel (outside of Indio, and just drive in. Hotel rates skyrocket in town bc of the event).

**Penthesilea** · 2010-01-22 00:33

Porcupine tree is worth seeing if you're going.

Nice, hookups are always amazing. Last year i managed to score a backstage to Mastodon, it was incredible.

I'm kinda wondering who the ???? on sunday is going to be >.>

**Beckwin** · 2010-01-22 10:58

day 3 looks the best by a fair amount; day 2 has some worthwhile stuff, and day 1 is pretty underwhelming.

2 > 1 > 3 imo.

Day 3 I'm really only interested in Club 75 and Pheonix; Gorillaz might be interesting, but if the album is as good as the single...well let's just say I'll be beating the line of cars to leave.

**Seraphise** · 2010-03-12 00:38

Just bought my pass, so damn excited! Has anyone here been before? I have a few questions

**Slapper** · 2010-03-12 00:52

The ???? next to Thom Yorke is RadioHead

Was this actually confirmed? It could just be the fact that his band's name changed for this tour. I can't really see him doing 2 sets in the same day unless they're shorter sets. It's not like there's large difference between the two acts, since he plays Radiohead songs during "Thom Yorke" appearances.

Nope. Its Yorke's live act, "Atoms for Peace."

ok so in April the other band.. that i got together to do the eraser and other stuff u know .. Mauro, Flea, Me, Joey and Nigel is going back out to do some shows in the US.. ending with playing with Coachella. we had too much fun to just leave it there...

it has been decided that we call ourselves Atoms For Peace. hope you like the name.. it seemed bleedin' obvious.
