I think Neko Case is required to play all these hipster festivals. Nothing really stands out here. Seems more like a standard festival. |

Not enough bands with exclamation marks in their names. |

It's nice to see Darkside got a spot on the bill. |

Seems more like a standard festival. i'm not quite sure i'd call Coachella a hipster festival their big thing is the "reunion/one-off" thing so Outkast of course..... the only serious draw for me would be The Knife, who for some reason have never played a proper US club tour which drives me insane, in fact they've only played 3 US dates ever |

The Saturday dates have a handful of bands I would see but certainly not enough to buy what is likely a very expensive ticket. |

Will this be better or worse than The Gathering of the Juggalos? |

That lineup is awful. At least now everyone won't have to worry about the music distracting from the rampant drug use. Finally, a festival that gets what is most important. |

Reminds me of my one TV interview. It was the summer of 2004. At a Cardinals game, I was approached by the Fox Sports Midwest crew and asked who was playing in the Stanley Cup Finals. Apparently I was the first person to get the answer right, out of at least 20+ people. My buddies called me up a couple days later to say they're watching me on TV. I didn't get any royalties from that appearance. Dammit. |

There you go, even though it is Southern CA so I dont think it too much editing to get those answers. Those are the people I went to school with and I think this is a bigger % of those who attend than you would imagine. |

I don't think it's terrible. The smaller print bands are more worth the price than the large print. Much like Lolla, how many times do we need bands like Arcade fire, Beck, QOTSA, and Muse headlining these big festivals? Look past them and see who is there. There is some crap in there too: Beady eye, 1975...actually the more I look at it, that Sunday lineup is hurting. yikes. |

oh and for those of you about to book your plane tickets....apparently since 2010 you aren't able to buy single day passes, it's either a 400$ 3-day pass or nothing.
