Definitely edited/voiced over to make them look stupid. I find this so annoying and tons of people are posting it around now. And, as others have said, it would have been sooo easy to get actually...

Hot Chip
New Order
Jurassic 5
Phoenix
Simian Mobile Disco

HM - 2DCC, Savages, Janelle Monae, the good parts of Blur

Urg to Jamie XX getting moved to before the 2 Bears... guessing it's gonna be even harder to get in there now. Also boo to Violent Femmes/Bat for Lashes/2 Bears conflict. Very bummed at Blur/HDTA...

Hi all, I'm posting this on behalf of my BF to see if anyone wants or needs a ride back to SF or the bay area Monday morning after Weekend 2 (morning of April 22). We are driving down together but I...

Ok, another question that may be a long shot... anyone have any insight into how they assign locker placement? Like, getting a locker further away from the entrance = less walking to and from the...

Sparks and Savages are probably my favorite discoveries so far. Also interested in checking out the 2 Bears, Vintage Trouble, TSPO, c2c, Reignwolf, Divine Fits... still researching!

Sad I can't go...

Hadn't heard of them before seeing the lineup and they're my favorite discovery thus far. I definitely want to see them... I will keep my hopes up for the set, and even if it's underwhelming I'm...

Well, for Polica, they definitely use effects on her voice, but it's a stylistic production choice. I've seen Channy sing live (performing with Gayngs 2x) and heard her sing "un-autotuned" and she...

Sparks
Polica
Foals

crazay!! Really interesting to see them on the lineup, definitely wanna check them out.

Sooooo excited about the lineup!! Though putting Phoenix above New Order is weird to me, I would love NO as a headliner. Plus, BLURRRR.
Saturday: New Order, Hot Chip, Yeasayer, Simian Mobile...

Hi, I purchased a presale pass for 2013 Weekend #2 (I'm still making payments on it) but in my haste to get one, forgot about a very important event I must attend on April 21st in the bay area. I'm...

Overall request: More nu-disco/indie dance, better/more varied EDM pleeeease.

Headliner potential: Jack White + Friends, New Order, Blur, Daft Punk (ha), Beck, return of Bjork or Muse......

Aww, this is great! That old guy is adorable. And LaVerne Sprinkle is, in all seriousness, a contender for the Best Name Ever. Nice to hear that Coachella cares and is constantly trying to improve...

The Rapture, sooo good! Honorable mention to Housse de Racket - For a very small Gobi crowd at 1 pm on Sunday, they had everyone there dancing and smiling - much harder to do than a prime time slot...

Was very pleasantly surprised by how rocking/great Feist was. I had previously thought of her as a mellow singer-songwriter but this show was dynamite, with 20+ musicians on stage. She herself was...

My favorites: Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys (SWOON), Vito of the Rapture, and Fitz.

One of my biggest and best surprises of the weekend, I had no idea Feist could bring it this hard. She seriously rocked. With a 20+ person ensemble on stage, full horn section, quirky and cool backup...

Got so close for them and it was easily one of my favorite sets of the weekend, definitely my favorite thing on Sunday. Wish they could have played an evening slot in Mojave though (like traded with...

Well, I wouldn't call Amon Tobin "dance" music but he was the best EM experience/performance.
Otherwise, I really enjoyed Breakbot, Madeon, the visuals of Sub Focus, and Sunday night when they were...

Yeah, this was all around very, very annoying. Being 25 minutes late (the longest I've ever waited for a Coach set), only playing 30 mins, having the sound cut out, and basically playing 3 10-minute...

We ventured over there for a few minutes to escape some tripped out creepers over at Radiohead, and it was basically the worst few minutes of the festival for me. At the time, every screen was...

As a fan of the band, I really enjoyed the set. I'd describe them as psychedelic synth rock, much more danceable live than on the albums, which are fairly chill. The wind/rain and looming clouds made...

Breakbot, Housse de Racket, and Madeon. I'm hoping, anyway, cause I'd like to see them all again ;)

The Rapture
Arctic Monkeys
Amon Tobin
Neon Indian
Metronomy

Honorable mentions: Miike Snow, Breakbot, Justice (fix ur shit, bros.), Madeon (only saw 15 mins), m83
Cool surprises: Feist (she...

The coolest possible way I could have ended Friday, and one of the hugest surprises for me... I'm glad I hadn't listened or watched anything of it beforehand, so I could just be completely awed by...

Fri: Neon Indian or M83
Sat: Miike Snow
Sun: Metronomy or Gotye

OK, I just wanted to mention those Acai bowls too. They were my favorite food item that I craved every year, and then they didn't have them last year!! I know it sounds dumb, but I kind of had a...

Ok, that's a bummer.. was looking forward to seeing her especially as the Gobi tent was entirely too overflowing to get anywhere near in 2010 so we didn't watch more than a song or two. The excuse is...

OK, and what about Simon Cowell launching that DJ competition show?? Also based around the "DJs are the new rockstars" thing... ahh. The endtimes are truly upon us.

No way. Friday is by far the best for me... Neon Indian, Breakbot, Madeon, Arctic Monkeys, M83, The Rapture are all among my most anticipated for the weekend. Sunday is decently good too.
...

I saw them live probably 3x during the first album phase... despite the descriptor "chillwave" their shows are often very energetic and danceable. I'm very excited to finally see them at Coachella...

I think this will be a ton of fun. Anyone who liked Yelle last year should not miss them! Their album Forty Love that features "Oh Yeah!" has some other good songs too... "Synthetiseur" is my...

"DANCE DANCE DANCE", inDEED.

No joke. Also, not to continue the sad list of indignities (overlooked disco acts), Todd Terje just dropped an amazing new EP that is setting the blogs afire. ADD PLEEEEASE. I'm pretty sure my cries...

Pretty excited for their set, though I hope they play a good mix of songs from all their albums (esp the second, my favorite)... not a big fan of "Suck it and see" at all. But I still love them and...

WORD.

Indie dance is probably what I should say. But "electro" just sounds so much cooler. B)

Definitely needs more disco dj's and bands. GTFOSHM It's like they got a 10-for-1 deal on swedish...

I'm not going to stop saying electro - old habits die hard and it's an easy, pleasant-sounding catchall term for my favorite music that differentiates it from other electronic dance music. I am aware...

God, yeah. The Mojave has been totally on fire for the last 2 years. I'm just so sad about this :( Royksopp would have been absolutely great.
I'm curious which other festival, if any, will pick up...

Oh yes, and if you liked Old Calvin Harris, you will hate what he's become (Club Bro Calvin).

If you like Robyn, check out Dragonette and La Roux.
If you like Daft Punk and Girl Talk, don't miss Madeon. (kid is only 18 years old. He's fantastic.)
If you like Yelle, check out Housse de...

Fair enough. I'm really just not a fan of OFWGKTA and did not like what I heard of Novacane so yes, you assumed correctly, haha. From past experiences I've learned that's generally enough for me to...

I, for one, am disappointed by the lack of electro and disco acts on the lineup this year, especially with so many exciting ones releasing stuff and touring/doing shows right now. Most of the...

Ok, I might try to dignify this rotting horse with a response...

Best so far: Madeon, Gotye, Wild Flag, Wolf Gang, Jacques LuCont (cause of the alias..),

WORST: Borgore (GAHHH.), Childish...

/agree with most all in this thread. This kid is freakin amazing! Like Girl Talk had a baby with Daft Punk... fantastic. One of my most anticipated as well, and one of the lineup's saving graces for...

Wild Flag, for the ladieeez ;) Otherwise disappointing on the gay front. I was really hoping for Jessica 6 or Herc and Love Affair. Last year MEN was pretty dang gay. And I liked it.

Fantasy headliners: Bowie, Blur, Daft Punk... lulz

Fantastic time at the festival. Really easy to get around and see everything I wanted, danced up a storm. Most of the time the grounds seemed pretty empty... lotsa room for dancing, easy to get up...

I've been to it a few times, and while I consider it one of the coolest things in SF, it can sometimes turn into a clusterfuck. The parking especially is a nightmare and I do not advise. In fact this...

Sooooo I'm late to the lineup commentary party, but... my favorite TI lineup ever?? I usually only go to 1 of the days (usually Saturday), this year gonna be SO GOOD.
