Some good stuff, but pretty underwhelming and weak for Coachella. I still can't get over that the Chilis without John in 2013 is still a headliner.

New Order is atrocious live.

Wow. Kinda underwhelming.

BUT VIOLENT FEMMES? WOAH BRO.

It's not godawful, but Coachella usually blows my knickers off. First time I can remember looking at one of their lineups and shrugging ambivalently. There's a lot of stuff I wouldn't mind seeing (again, for the most part), but I couldn't bring myself to make the trip down there.

Plus they don't have The Knife. D+/10

So bad these days.

This will be a slow burning excitement for me. Some artists in the undercard immediately make me squirm with excitement, but HOLY FUCK did they absolutely fuck themselves over with headliners. Looks like maybe deadmau5 bailed last minute as well? Who's the Friday night main stage EDM act?

Posted by Cysquatch on Jan 24, 2013, 11:46pm

I'm excited to see that How To Destroy Angels is doing live shows. I think there is a very good chance they'll be at Sasquatch. Trent loves the Gorge.

Social D is the fourth name on a Coachella day! I mean good band but you can count on them touring through your town 5 times a year and get tickets at the door each time. Crazy...

A lot of really cool stuff I never expected on this lineup. Funny how everyone lost their shit over the Primavera lineup because their undercard was so great, yet people are bitching about Coachella because their headliners suck.

I wonder what the consensus would be if the Knife was at Coachella instead of Primavera?

what the fuck

Posted by stamper on Jan 24, 2013, 11:49pm

fuck off, I'm stoked.

Sorry you guys are haters, but there are tons of absolute favorites of mine on this bill. Lots of acts I haven't seen and lots of acts I have seen who are some of my favorites.
