This is nothing new - just new for "coachella". Music cruises with bands have been around a while.

I don't think hologram Pac would keep the set going as the ship was going down.

Coachella is about as hipster as Lollapalooza is.

True. I saw Rights of the Accused play on the Star of Chicago about 25 years ago. I think it was promoted as "Anarchy on the Lake".

I'm just not much of a festival guy since the old Lolla days. I just like my pavilion seat too much.
Although, I do go to Summerfest every year for at least one day.

They used to do those with some frequency. I saw Demented Ted and Vic Vacuum and The Attachments on one of those. I think Tony LaBarbara from the Thirsty Whale used to book it.

I like Summerfest in general, but it's pretty much


Pitchfork > Summerfest

:lol: excellent.

Hopefully one day nickelback and creed decide to do a cruise tour and the captain sets sail directly for the Somali coast or some other known pirate hotspot. Or take one for the team and summon a Kraken.
