Coachella 2010

[wml7]

My flight has been booked for a few weeks now. I've been the past 2 coachellas and this one is the best yet.

Can't believe I'm going to see Orbital and Thom Yorke... holy shit.

what happens if they both play at the same time???   

[betao]

Oh man, I dont even want to begin to imagine the possible conflicts. Upon first glance, I really want to see:

Orbital
Thom Yorke
Infected Mushroom
Echo & the Bunnymen
Fever Ray
Gorillaz (at least some of them)
LCD Soundsystem
Jay Z (at least some of him)
Gary Numan
The Whitest Boy Alive
Flying Lotus
Faith No More (at least some of them)
Plastikman
Deerhunter
Z-Trip
Mew
Glitch Mob

and so many more. There are so many of the "holy shit they actually booked them?" acts on there. Arguably Coachella's best lineup yet.

you do not want to see infected mushroom.  at a minimum, have another act at the same time that you'll be ready to move on to once you realize how much they blow.

nice catch on plastikman, didn't notice that.

i wonder what the deal is with the question marks after thom yorke's name on the poster.  i'm hoping he'll have the same band backing him as he did in LA recently (included flea), but maybe they're indicating something else?

[Got Haggis?]

thats actually a great lineup.  Hey Seth........

[azaghal1981]

I was just going to say the "Hey Seth" thread is about to have three pages tacked onto it.

Are "? ? ? ?" affiliated with "! ! !" ?

[hutch]

Babasonicos!!!!!!!!! Very cool!

[betao]

It's been confirmed that Thom Yorke will be performing with the project he was with in LA last fall, the one including Flea and Nigel Godrich.

and I like Infected Mushroom - they were awesome at V-fest a few years back. But I'll probably be missing them due to conflicts.

This lineup is just so damn stacked.

EDIT: I bow down to GGW.  Never again will I post without reading the whole thread.

damn, sorry i missed that... nkotb, i assume you made some zinger in my direction only to have me proven correct by ggw?

[nkotb]

Nah, I just left basically the same joking comment: "I believe is that new !!! side project."

Thom Yorke??? is how they refer to the unnamed collaboration between himself, Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker, Mauro Refosco, and Flea. I believe they were billed this way when they played the few ?The Eraser? shows last year in CA. 

[serpent boy]

Eh. I'm not too fond of the lineup. I'll wait for another festival that has FNM with better headliners and a much better mid-card.

Plus, being a teacher, you're probably not going to get the time off to go, or be able to afford it for that matter.

Yes, this is that same collaboration.
