Random Notes

Bands with a # after the name were all first mentioned on ProductshopNYC
Bands with an * after the name are all mentioned on that hoax list that made the rounds back in late November (although Coldplay was added by the press). But many of these bands are still being mentioned and besides, even an incorrect rumor is still a rumor, and I'm trying to be thorough here, dammit!
 
Wilco :drool:
PJ :drool:
The Shins :heart:

U2? Well, I'll believe that when it happens.

Damn, that's looking a helluva lot more exciting than the Bonnaroo festival I posted earlier.

Hi Sticky! :wave:
 
I wouldn't be surprised if NIN signed on since they have a new record coming out and need the exposure to the masses once again.
 
Happy Monday Morning! :yawn:


The official line-up is now on the coachella website,

and

Coldplay on Saturday night!!!!!:happy: :up:


Even our little local band, Gram Rabbit will be there on Sunday

I am there!

it looks ok, but nowhere even close to as good as last year. but that's to be expected. it's not very often you get radiohead, broken social scene, wilco, future sound of london, etc. etc. etc all performing together at the same festival...
 
Does Coachella usually sell out? I want to go, but don't have the funds to spare at the moment. If I wait a month or so, will there still be tix available?

What a great line up, for Day 1 especially...

show your soul

Coachella sold out last year.

I think there were about 50,000 attendence each day.
how fast did it sell out...i'm in the same boat, i'd like to go but i won't have the cash for about a month...

(p.s. this post just made me an acrobat)

hi pub crawler! :wave: you're still around I see

I went to the first day last year also, did you stay late to see Phantom Planet? I really wanted to see them but I had to leave early.....

Hi jezebel! Long time no talk to. Didn't see Phantom Planet. Stayed at the main stage and saw the pixies, radiohead, then moved to the big tent to see kraftwerk. The kraftwerk show was fucking PACKED. Interesting, nonetheless.

See ya there this year. :wink:

We bought our tix like 4 weeks before the show. I believe it sold out in the last 2 weeks or something. You've got time.
 
should i go? i might go. a VERY recent possible development that is stressing me out a lot. A money v. logic reason. I can do it, but it'd be tight, funding-wise...

:help:
 
:sigh:

BAUHAUS

is this, like, THE Bauhaus playing?

Peter Murphy, Daniel Ash, David J and the drummer (who I really couldn't name)?
