so i saw in the tool thread that quoth is going, as am i. who else?
should be a good year, i cannot fucking WAIT to see daft punk in the dance tent (hopefully ill be rolling too :D).
and of course, sigur ros, tool, massive attack and all the rest are gonna be good fun too.
anybody got any suggestions for some of the lesser known bands? (by lesser known i mean not well known by me) ive heard good things about the animal collective show, and id really like to catch paul okenfold for the shit of it.

Stay the hell away from the main stage. Especially for okenfold, Youll be able to see his visual effects from a mile away anyway so itll be a lot of bother over nothing. Unless you really want to get a good look, but then youll basically have to park your ass there all day to have a good position. Invest you time moving in and around the rave tents. But if you want to get really fucking close to what you know will be a packed performance, get to the venue atleast 2 acts early. There will be ten million fucking people there, and when word gets out that someone is doing something really fucking cool, theres a person standing in every concievable vantagae point.

You know im sure thats true for every venue, but ive been there every year except last year, when I had to go to a wedding, and theres always too many people for the accomidations. Every year they add more shade but they always underestimate the crowd. I always get pissed off and say to myself Im never comming back, but then as the festival draws near I start getting all anxious and go anyway.

This will one of the only years I am not going to be attending...
I have had wonderful memories of past Coachella festivals, but this year I thought was one of the worst lineups they have ever had.
Be sure to check out Madonna in the SAHARA tent.... VOGUE

Theyre headlining bigger and bigger names, and booking too much boring shit that everyones already tired of.

Some of my reasoning also had to do with the fact that the acts only get MAYBE up to 75 min for thier act....
SO the headliners (Depeche Mode,Tool,etc) wont be playing a full set as they would in a show of thier own.
I remember being so bummed when they cut off BJORK at the 1 hour mark...

I was just so stoaked to see her for the first time, but now looking back on it, seeing her indoors and on her own tour would have been much nicer.
I guess some of my best memories were acts that were in the tents or on the smaller stages....
Squarepusher, Autechre, Plaid, Roni Size, St. Germain, Fischerspooner, Dillinja, Chemical Brothers, etc....
