Firefly?  They seem to have a similar focus... I know it is not technically DMV.

Calvin Harris is a waste of a headliner

Coachella line-up's aren't what they used to be. Times are changing I guess.

Glad to see they still went after Lush and Underworld. Also,see the "Hey Seth" thread to voice your request to get those guys over here too.

I suspect most people going to Coachella these days are in it for the "experience" and not the music. I got that line from a guy I know who has been going every year for the last 12 or so years, and he's one of those people who just wants to party with 60,000 other people and then report via social media who "killed it" and then proclaim that bands like Empire of the Sun changed his life and he felt like a single cell in a greater living organism coming into existence. But if this lineup excites others, that's cool and I hope they'll have fun. I think part of it is I'm older and I just don't want to be around that many people for 3 days. Plus, festivals are a dime a dozen. Chances are you'll find one that's a better fit for your taste than the poopourri of a lineup that includes Calvin Harris, Matt and Kim, and Zedd.

How did the Kills get such high placement? There's a band that's liked by some but truly beloved by nobody. Were they even an active concern? Did anybody know? Did anybody care? If the lead guy weren't married to Kate Moss, would anyone remember them at all?

I mean, Grimes is one of the hottest artists of right now and she's relegated to the 3rd tier. I'm perplexed and flummoxed, all at once.

nice
This reminded me of the Jackie Chiles character from Seinfeld. Relaxer, would you say this situation is totally inappropriate? It's lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous!

I don't think it's exaggeration to say that my entire universe has exploded into a trillion minutiae and the fate of all matter, organic and manufactured, is mortally dependent upon learning -- nay, discovering, pioneering, cascading, avalanching -- why the Kills are featured so prominently at the 2016 Coachella festival.

Clearly the real question is, why didn't Coachella book the massively amazing and popular Girls Generation, Dorothy Little Happy or Princess Cheeky Parade? Real oversight there, I think.

I think it is a build up in anticipation from the set The Kills were supposed to play at the Landmark Festival before they dropped out. 

Ex Hex made the list of Coachella bands, so HOORAY for local bands getting larger stages!
