Coachella Lineup?

I know it’s not just me who feels this way.

Paul McCartney (Love me some Beatles and Wings), The Killers, and Amy Wine(Crack)house? I thought Coachella was cutting edge?

There hasn’t been much speculating, or talk about this year’s lineup previous to it’s release, and now we know why. There’s a handful, but for the most part…ho hum.

    yeah, but there’s a bunch of good stuff too… glass half full?

    TVOTR, APTBS, BJTM, MBV… damn I’ve run out of recognizable acronyms… how can you complain about My Bloody Valentine?

    how about No Age, Calexico, Fleet Foxes, Leonard Cohen, frigin Mastadon, Band of Horses, Black Keys and Beirut? Doesn’t sound too bad to me.

    You have a valid point Rob, but with a lineup consisting of this many bands, there will inevitably be something of interest.
