There are some wonderful threads addressing this topic in the Coachella Lounge

Gogol Bordello is VERY cool man. They are just plain crazy people making music, this wierd gipsy punk as they dub themselves. I am really looking forward to seeing what they do live, because their albums give sooo much potential for really entertaining, crazy live shows with lots of dancing (no moshing, but still high energy). check out their album Gypsy punks underdog world strike. And hey, bob marley's kid is playing!!!! I have no idea what he is like, but that should be cool

gogol is known for putting on an amazing show.
crowd-surfing on a drum and what-not.
definitely a must.
