Which are Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Coachella 2012 acts? I need to know.

[gaypalmsprings]

I am not familiar with most of the acts. I want to see the gayest acts (not gay acting, but actually gay - and not gay as in bad, like Skrillex). I don't see Gloria Gaynor, Donna Summer, Elton John, K.D. Lang, nor David Bowie on the line-up. Thanks.

Gayly yours,

Best post ever...If I were gay and at Coachella (which i unfortunately wont be) and wanted to get all gay with it, you could probably find my at La Roux, M83, Fitz & The Tantrums, Morgan Page, Florance & The Machine, Gotye, Breakbot, tUnE-yArDs, Lissie, Jacques Lu Cont, Spector, Beats Antique, Metronomy, Grouplove, GIRLS (simply because the lead singer hit on me in Albuquerque) and Girl Talk.

Coachella 2012 needs moar gay acts for sure.

[DropletsOfYes&No]

Wonder why Erasure never plays

[Pumpkinhead33]

I wish Anthony from M83 was gay. That's one attractive man (in my opinion). As for actually gay/bi artists, I don't recognize any. But Snoop Dogg deserves credit for his part in Bruno

[Stickjohn]

GPS is not interested in GIRLS.

Because Paul T has ears.

[SoulDischarge]

Some of (all?) the Buzzcocks are homos. I think that might be it?

[david.sound]

Aww too bad no Foofighters.

[Sensuality]

Does Justice count? Pretty sure they're gay for Jesus.

[bobert]

Straight Swedish men are gayer than even the most flaming American men. Hope this helps.

I'd do the lead singer for The Hives and Alec Empire of Atari Teenage Riot.

[kenzbeard]

Feist, Dragonette, Fitz & the Tantrums, Madness, Keep Shelly In Athens, Neon Indian, Miike Snow, Santigold, St. Vincent, Cat Power, We Are Augustines, La Roux, M83, Metronomy, Florence & the Machines if not LGBT themselves should have a decent size crowd representing the community.

I wish Rufus Wainwright was invited back or The Magnetic Fields. The Radiohead crowd will be hella Gay.

[concertgoer]

fwiw Chris from Girls is bi.

[AlecEiffel]

I think Pete Shelley is currently the only gay member of the Buzzcocks (I may be wrong about that), but he is the lead singer and song writer so it is very much reflected.

Too bad you missed last year. You would have loved Scissor Sisters.

[fatbastard]

Scissor Sisters was the gayest I'd ever seen Coachella.

[travelfan]

Scissor Sisters was the gayest I'd ever seen Coachella.

I went to the tail end of Scissor Sisters (and most of Robyn for good measure, at least until Boys Noize), and inexplicably the Marina and the Diamonds crowd was hands down the gayest per capita crowd of the whole weekend. I also, at that set, witnessed a 50 year old man break down in tears during a song about champagne. They seemed like happy tears.

In my absolute ignorance, what little I know of Dragonette seems like it would be a gay dance party this year, minus the fact that she'll be in a tent at 1:30. Digging Jacques Lu Cont a lot, but can definitely see how that could be a gay dance party as well.

[wakeupmandy]

La Roux aka Elly Jackson has said that she is not at all gay. 98% sure Wild Beats are at least partially gay (as in at least one member of the band). I have met Michael Fitzpatrick of Fitz and the Tantrums and I'm pretty sure he's gay.

Dragonette was fun a Lolla at around 2-3 in the afternoon. It was at the stage with all the shaded trees so that helped.

[electrocute]

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.

Dem gays have some decent taste in music

[TomAz]

I would like to know which acts are hetero or bi but are into bondage and water sports. Should I start a thread for it?
