So, bought a pair of passes to BOTH Coachella weekends way back when, but I recently left L.A. for a new job ... Therefore, doing back-to-back weekends is no longer gonna work! I need to sell my 2 GA...
So who all, if anyone, is doing Mutek this year (and is there usually a boardie meetup)??? I'm planning/hoping on going for the first time this year, but a) would be rolling solo and b) speak very...
First year condo-ing it (was a diehard camper until last year's debacle when we didn't get enough camping passes in time).
$1,180 (which included a supposedly refundable deposit) for a 3BR + 2.5...
Nico Vega! And March Fourth Marching Band. Album Leaf, sort of? I mean yeah they had the fuzzy ambient electronic thing going on last year but I guess in my head they are still more an indie pop/rock...
I admit, I feel smugly satisfied the years I go in with a specific wad of cash, never go to the ATM (or have to pay for things with a credit card), and walk away from the polo field Sunday night...
to reduce my conflicts/ties, of the artists I have NEVER seen or will not be seeing at some point prior to Coachella:
Gayngs
Foals
DFA1979 (and Trentemoller)
Layaway gives the option to ship to a different address other than the billing address...presumably since it's through Front Gate, not Ticketmaster.
Grizzly Bear puts me to sleep live. Menomena (who I've seen 2x) has the energy of a WP-like band live IMHO.
*but yes - if you like GB you'll prob like Menomena too!
Mount Kimbie's not really that dancy live (at least, not when I caught their first L.A. gig last year). I kinda actually envision them in Gobi for some (strange) reason.
Are Steve Angello (since...
Rilo Kiley ... Thao Nguyen (and Jenny/Johnny, DUH)
Wolf Parade (RIP) ... Menomena
Best Coast or the Wavves' slower stuff ... The Love Language
DFA1979 ... HEALTH
the idea of Animal Collective...
I just hope he continues to have excellent taste the rest of his life...
(PS - would love to see his thoughts next year on the PJ Harvey, Strokes, Dr. Dre, James Blake, British Sea Power and Lamb...
Hmmm...

If anyone else is going to tonight's CYP2 - see you there!!!
Anyone out there planning to hit this up on Saturday night in Downtown LA (location TBD)?? I'm having a (surprisingly) helluva time finding friends to come out to what should be an EPIC night...
Coachella will always be my fave festival music-wise, but LiB this year was hands-down the best fest "EXPERIENCE" and overall vibe I've ever experienced ... I just left feeling totally blissed out (I...
I don't think I see this one from early on in the thread answered, so: JAW-DROPPINGLY GOOD. They were in the Mojave back when that stage was only like half the size it is now and actually had...
Never been to Voodoo or NOLA, so have NO idea about the layout of the fest itself, nor the city, but I'm totally down for a meetup!! And still on the fence about my "schedule" (tentative one below,...
I'm digging it (and love love love the home page).
Monochrome makes me think 2011 will be all about witch house...hmm. I'm envisioning Salem transitioning into Daft Punk somehow.
THIS! I will just be happy if I can easily hop and skip from Boxer Rebellion at the Echo on Friday after their set's done to catch a bit of Klaxons downstairs at the Echoplex, without having to wait...
Just saw that Matthew Dear's doing a show at the Howlin' Wolf that Thursday of Voodoo (10/28) - anyone else planning to hit that up?? I realize he'll be in LA the following week, but this venue...
Boo! I want to be committed for 12 hours, or however long it takes, but Google Chrome continually just saying "Other users are also experiencing difficulties connecting to this site, so you may have...
FlyLo will be on at 10:20 @ the LET stage (as confirmed on his Facebook page / Daddy Kev aka Kevin Marques Moo's comment) WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO
Oh lord, I think I still have nightmares of having to walk around barefoot at Coachella '99 (at some point, I accidentally broke one of my poorly constructed flip-flops). *shudders*
LOL! And easy to find/pick out in a crowd too...
Boo to having to pick between Muse vs. Jonsi :( Guess I'll go with the one I haven't seen yet (Jonsi), though Muse would seem to better fit the...
late to this thread but with my internal countdown officially in full mode w/ set times being announced tomorrow ... I would SOOO be down for any meet-ups! Plus, I'm a total NOLA virgin, should be...
Hmm, most annoying noise bleed I recall this year was in reverse - Tiesto drowning out the end of Beats Antique (GRRRRRR). Would think all the smaller tents plus the Do LaB, would get moved around...
Lemme try responding to this again (darn you message board for logging me out)!
No, can't bank on the "vast majority" *not* knowing who she is (since Coachella is teeming with uber-indie hipsters...
Fever Ray in the Mojave makes me bummed ... I mean, I guess there's no other logical tent for her to be at, but if the boards (and the "critics" a la SPIN crowning her the No. 1 must-see) are any...
oh crap, I don't know why I didn't even notice til just now Orbital was on at the same time (thinkin my eyes have already been too crossed/hurting from staring at the schedule figuring out how to...
Does Sean Penn's drunk slurred speech right before My Morning Jacket count? It sounded at first like he was promoting a good cause, but he made absolutely no sense.
Oh yeah, and TOTALLY agreed...
Seriously...would love the map ASAP! Have a really big split group this year (as well as a lot of newbies) as opposed to previous years b/c of the whole "we failed at buying enough camping passes on...
I wouldn't have voted them for douchey-EST crowd, but from my experience seeing them last year, they have a really damn pushy crowd (like, just for the sake of being bitchy vs. being enthusiastically...
That was a pretty damn epic moment. I was so sad my camera is the suck and didn't get decent video :(
AH! So I'm totally going for the first time this year (thank God for layaway, hah) - there's no way I am missing this lineup. BUT having a helluva time convincing friends to go (yeah they kind of...
The Angel aka 60 channels in '99. Google tells me she was in the Mojave tent at 2:15. From what I recall, the Mojave tent back then was maybe 1/3 the size of what it is now...
I came for...
I DO get it (and I'm not a bro, btw) - all I'm saying is for people who *ARE* driving in (which I'm guessing is the majority), it's gonna be interesting to see how this all plays out. Basically I see...
Not getting the people adopting others from different regions/states ... it's only ONE car per ONE camping pass right?
Hmm, kinda wondering if I should have waited this out and see how the whole...
OOOOOOOH, nice catch. Could totally see Deru as a perfect way to ease into an afternoon in the Sahara ... and I have yet to catch Free the Robots!! *fingers crossed*
Have yet to see Bassnectar, so that's how I voted ... and while entertaining I wasn't blown away or anything by deadmau5's last coachella appearance (granted, it was still daytime) ... so, for anyone...
THIS MUST HAPPEN.
As a fellow Valley resident who enjoyed the first Coachella in 1999 at your youthful age, I would normally offer ... but since "the organizers reserve the right to deny entry of the vehicle and/or...
This grid rocks. THANK YOU!!!
They sound really good but yes, are kinda (errr... REALLY ... boring) live. Maybe they just had an off night cuz it was the very last day of their US tour, but me and my friends plan to be at their...
Just gotta say it's about GD time!!! Haven't they always allowed Stagecoach Fest campers to bring in beer as well? (I wouldn't know... imagine not many of you would either, but... so I have heard).
I want this template (AKA another way to procrastinate at work w/ regard to coachella)!!!!
PS - thank you guedita for your signature ... had no idea Memory Tapes was touring. I am SO gonna go to...
This is basically the question I posted earlier (http://coachella.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35867 , and my concern was also about security) but based on the FAQ, you only need a festival pass to get...
Yeah, speaking of "remix" type collaborations - I'd like to also see these also done together live:
Jay-Z/The Glitch Mob - 99 Problems But a Glitch Aint One
Bassnectar/Fever Ray - When I Grow Old...
Poll: Bean at KROQ is lying? Yay or nay?
http://kroq.radio.com/2010/01/26/coachella-single-day-tickets-yes-please/#more-18751
Oh well, I already bought my 3-day pass as soon as tix went on...
Do NOT skip live:
Fever Ray
Passion Pit
Muse
The Dead Weather
FlyLo
Thom Yorke???? (yes I was lucky enough to catch their show last fall in LA)
King Khan & the Shrines
THE GLITCH MOB
Day 1 of 2006 (Daft Punk ... period)
Day 2 of 2008 (one of the better top-to-bottom, all-around days)
Days 1 & 3 of 2010 are tied for me right now, time will tell
Day 1 of 2009 (sir paul and the...
