I enjoyed their set last year, although my experience of it was pretty weird. I was sitting down against the side of the tent for awhile until I noticed the couple next to me... they were probably...

They call it the 'worst' cover, but I love it

It's weird to see youtubes of this set, since my memory of it feels more like a really strange and amazing dream than something that really happened

I was fortunate to be up front too... this was by far my favorite performance of the weekend. Very powerful stuff

I don't think it was all that shocking considering that all his comeback shows over the past few years have been similarly chaotic, by all accounts. It was definitely kind of sad to see a diminished...

That guitarist's name is Jason... I like that. I noticed Pete/Sonic was in a good mood too, which I guess was contrary to my perception of him; I got to meet him briefly afterwards which is always...

My favorites that I didn't see mentioned are

British Sea Power - The Decline of British Sea Power

Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain

My top 5 are probably...

Paul McCartney
MIA
X
My Bloody Valentine
Throbbing Gristle

No bottom 5, I liked everyone I saw!

I was there too, I got there early so I go to see the Primals walking around beforehand and eventually grab a front row spot. What a great great show... my second time seeing one of my favorite...

The LA gig is about a month earlier than Coachella and then they're heading to Philadelphia, NYC etc through the end of March... I'd love to see them added but I don't think it's likely

I was born like this, I had no choice
I was born with the gift of a golden voice
And twenty-seven angels from the great beyond
They tied me to this table right here
In the tower of song

I really love this song, and the video is funny

This is one of my favorite videos in the wide world of youtube and I am extremely pleased they chose it to represent TG for the site

Apparently Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones have given up looking for a different singer and touring as some alternate Led Zep. So as it stands there isn't gonna be any sort of reunion tour anytime...

I'd add to the list of snubs "Che", "Synecdoche NY", and "Rachel Getting Married" (which deserved nods for screenplay and picture I think)

I was shocked by the Springsteen snub too, and surprised...

I heard AC on the radio here in San Diego for the first time today... 'My Girls' on 94.9

Apparently he has a solo album coming out in May. I was a big Grandaddy fan and I'd been...

I think it could happen, either with the Bad Seeds or Grinderman. Birthday Party reunion would be great but as far as I know they've never had any intention of using that name again

I saw Nick...

I don't know if this has been discussed already. From the latest Rolling Stone...

"To keep expenses down, Coachella organizers have pledged not to sign high-cost headliners like 2008's Prince and...

The Stooges reunion at Coachella 2003 was one of the best shows I've ever seen, and he was one of the best rock guitarists of all

But that in itself is actually another acknowledgment of their influence. Anyway even if somehow they'd never heard the BBs I think the comparison would be a valid one, 'cliche' or not

I'm from North County too, and Encinitas specifically... hmm... maybe living in this sunny climate near the ocean and surrounded by lots of flowers and things makes us especially appreciative of...

RS has reviewed their albums at least since 'Sung Tongs' and has profiled/interviewed them a few times. I think the contrarian anti-hype backlash is more about Internet 'hype' though. Unfortunately...

Most of my favorites have been mentioned... but I also like

Lou Monte - Dominic the Italian Christmas Donkey

and

Jon Bon Jovi and the Intergalactic Droid Choir - R2-D2 We Wish You a Merry...

The setlist is...

Accelerator
Miss Lucifer
Rise
Shoot Speed Kill Light
Pills
Burning Wheel
Kill All Hippies
City

Apparently they are playing in NYC in late March. I don't think any other US dates have been announced yet

I think 'Dear Science' isn't a bad choice for #1, although it's not mine. Lists like this should probably be separated by genre though. Their #1 for reissues (Dennis Wilson's 'Pacific Ocean Blue')...

I would really like to see Acid Mothers Temple show up in one form or another

In spite of the sound difficulties it was one of my favorite sets of the weekend, and I had seen Acoustic Mainlines before... that said I also really hope they're back next year
