it'll have to be impressive for me to make a return trip too...aphex twin or someone else who you usually can't see stateside. coldplay is a ridiculous headliner. if they're confirmed, i will definitely NOT be going to coachella this year. ditto for the doves, or tears for fears, or any of the other bands that have been "rumoured" to be on the bill.
...and a u2 headline is pretty bunk too. last time i saw them was on zooropa when i paid almost $70 (this was back in 96 or 97 mind you) to see them play a painfully short set at RFK...broken screens, no encore, no acoustic set as they had played for every other stop on that tour. aren't u2 making enough money doing their own thing to make coachella seem like a big waste of time?
