Will festival vendors be selling band-specific merchandise, or only Coachella-themed shit?
I needs me a Sleigh Bells tour shirt something awful. Me and approximately 2,136 fourteen-year-old girls trippin' on weak MDMA tablets.

yes they do, but buy early because band specific merch tends to sell out first. many times only available the day they are playing, too.
Some bands do special shirts for Coachella too.
Here is a great pic ivankay took last year of the merch "table"
from ivankay's Coachella 2010 Day 2 spring collection
I love the tour shirts that include Coachella on the tour dates, like my Jay-Z shirt that says Indio and my daft Punk shirt that says Coachella as their first date!

Recommended plan of attack: Get there early. Go to merch tent immediately upon arrival. Buy things and bring them back to your locker* (which you already reserved, because you are a savvy festival attendee). At the end of the evening, pick up locker stuff and go home. Repeat the following day.
*Recommended plan of attack may vary for campers.
Very wise advice.
Headliners and larger billed bands will have merch all three days. Basically, they sell it all until it's gone or it's the end of the weekend.
I am kicking myself for not buying a Major Lazer hoodie last year, but I do love my Coachella football (only assholes call it soccer) scarf.

What used to be my YouTube Channel before dozens of my Coachella footage were flagged for copyright and my channel was terminated, erasing 10 years of Coachella and live concert history (that I recorded) from the internet.

Better hurry - from the FAQ
Will there be lockers on site?
There are a very limited amount of lockers available for rent. Please go to: http://lockersonline.com/ .
Be nice to Lou the Locker guy. He's super cool.
We purchased all our merch with credit the last 2 years.
If we're lucky something will happen. Some adversity will happen and something unexpected will happen and you'll get tired and you'll get hungry, you'll have trouble going to the bathroom, and you'll lose your car keys, and all these wonderful things will add up to some powerful experience that 10 years from now we'll say "We lived, we lived." - Wayne Coyne on Coachella
I actually have a Comedians Of Comedy shirt that was made specifically for Coachella. They weren't allowed to sell them, because they aren't allowed to actually say "Coachella Music & Arts Festival" (or it needs to be properly licensed.) They wound up giving them away.
Oh, and when you search Google Images for Comedians Of Comedy Coachella Shirt, you get this...
