[paige]

yaaaaaaawn except for J5 and queens of the stone age. but like i'm really going to spend a crapload of money on all the other bands just to see two in a huge venue when you're never close enough to the stage anyway? no thanks

Rumor has it Interpol may also be playing. I think we should see the full line-up before making any rash judgements, but I tend to agree, the line-up is, dare I say, too mainstream. Something we wouldn't have said in 1991.

Interpol? OMG would that be a career ending mistake.  That would rank right up there with something like.... sandwiched between sum 41 and kelly osbourne at HFS.  Hopefully they steer clear.  Stay with clubs until radiohead needs an opener.

I thought Lollapukeloosa was about musical diversity...all I see here is hard rock and a token negro band thrown in...

[Guiny]

Was it a career ending mistake when Coldplay played at HFSestival? They were by far the worst band there, yet everyone in this forum seems to bow down to them. (Ok mostly all of you)

[Henry Dark]

$120 for two days? What a ripoff. Bumbershoot in Seattle is like $20 a day, Citystages in Birmingham is $30 for three days, and the Austin City Limits Fest was $35 for two days.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial, Veranda">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by sonickteam2:<BR><B> yeah, no diversity in that "as of now" lineup.  its too bad but people wont pay money for bands they dont really know, but the bands they know, suck.  haha.<P>  anyway, Coachella......heres who they have "as of now" announced....<P>The Hives<BR>Beastie Boys<BR>Chemical Brothers<BR>Oasis<BR>Foo Fighters<BR>Bjork<BR>Siouxsie and the Banshees<BR>Polyphonic Spree<BR>Soundtrack of our Live<BR>Z-Trip<BR>Ben Kweller<BR>Deep Dish (!!)<P>and thats like 1/10 of it....for $120 for two days....let this give us all faith that a large festival CAN happen. even if its in cali.</B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>
