Coachella 2010 Schedule Released April 13, 2010
The Coachella music festival is quickly approaching. This is my first year going to this particular festival, but I’ve been to more than my share of music festivals in the past… Enough to know that I won’t end up seeing even half of the bands that I wanna see.
Why? It just isn’t possible. Half the fun of a music festival is partying in the camping area, and pregaming for the big acts. That being said, here are the bands I’d like to see each day. I’ve got a few schedule conflicts in there, nothing too crazy though.
Friday: Baroness, Deer Tick (?), Avett Brothers, Yeasayer, Aeroplane, Dillinger Escape Plan, Them Crooked Vultures (?), Grizzly Bear, LCD Soundsystem, Fever Ray, Deadmau5 (or Jay-Z)
Saturday: Porcupine Tree, Old Crow Medicine Show, Beach House, the XX (or Coheed & Cambria), Faith No More, MGMT (?), Muse, Flying Lotus (or Les Claypool, or The Dead Weather… Crap), Die Antwoord, Tiesto (?)
Sunday: Rusko, De La Soul (or The Glitch Mob, or Jonsi), Spoon (or Phoenix, or Miike Snow, or Infected Mushroom… Crap), Orbital (or Pavement), Thom Yorke (or Plastikman), Gorillaz
If you’re bored, take a look at the lineup and let me know if you think I’m missing out on any must-see acts, as there are quite a few on there that I’ve never heard before.
This is the first festival that I’ve attended where camping passes were sold separately from the festival passes. I slacked on buying one, and they sold out. Within hours, people were selling the camping passes on eBay for $700-800. I lucked out and found someone on Twitter who sold me hers for $50… So hopefully that isn’t fake. She seemed nice enough. I suppose I’ll find out in 2 days…

I’ll be there too — I’m having that conflict of timing issue also.
I’m essentially going to go Friday and Saturday. Sunday I’m not sure — Gorillaz is the only thing that tickled my fancy.

Was hot chip no good at bonnaroo ’07? If I was going to coachella I’d probably be sure to check them out. Have a great time there man.

I actually didn’t see them at Bonnaroo. Didn’t see them at Coachella either, but I heard they were awesome. Too many bands, not enough time, the usual festival dilemna.

I’ve been hearing the package that is carrying Coachella wristbands comes with some gifts? Anyone receive the wristbands already? I just want to know if they come with anything.

I really want to go to Coachella this year again but everytime I try to find one day passes, there’s only 3 day and I only want to go on Saturday. So I was wondering if i could buy a ticket at the festival. If you have any additional information please tell me! Thank you!
