A couple of Coachella 2003 rumors

Now all this info I have read is ONLY rumors and NOTHING
has been confirmed, as far as I know.

Starting to sound like GOOD RUMORS though...:

From the Coachella Message Board::

"Coachella WILL take place April 26th and 27th. The
Polyphonic Spree will be performing on Sunday, the 27th.
Local hotels have already gooten word that the Beastie Boys
are scheduled to be the headliners on one of the nights.
Additional rumors place The White Stripes, Royksopp and
Underworld at the event. Book your hotels now - they are
already filling up. Based on the success of last years event
- prepare for a more mainstream line-up with more rock
oriented acts."

" Will also see the triumphant return of the girl nextdoor,
Courtney Love & HOLE! Their fan website Pretty on the Inside
is reporting the group is working on some Nivana covers &
will be back in full force for Coachella 2003! "

From a small Radiohead site:
"Rumors are starting to fly around 2003's Coachella Music
and Arts Festival in Indio, CA, the closest event America
has to Europe's ever-popular festival culture. The dates
have not been made official but sources won't confirm or
deny that it's the weekend of Apr 26. Hotel prices in the
Indio-Palm Springs area, where the event takes place on polo
fields deep in the palm tree shrouded desert, have already
been hiked up for that weekend and places are filling up
quickly. One rumor had it that Radiohead were in negotiation
as a headliner, but people in their camp (who probably
hadn't been to the event to understand its full grandeur)
were not in full support of the maneuver. The dance tent
possibilities look fantastic with talk of Underworld, Deep
Dish, Groove Armada and Timo Maas ? if they add Satoshi
Tomiie, Danny Howells, John Cramer and Stephane K, it would
be unflappable. Last year The Strokes, Foo Fighters, Oasis,
Queens of the Stone Age, Bjork, John Digweed and Prodigy all
rocked the two-day event, which was held in stunning weather
and went off with few complications. This year will mark the
four

My inititial reaction to coachella 2001:

"its.. its so beautiful :')"

I always wanted to go camping there. They have some nice
camping spots in the area. Itd be so cool to take the party
back to your campsite and go fucking mental.

Oh man, you HAVETA go, I only did not go LAST YEAR cause it
was over 2 days and I couldnt get both off from work.
The other 2 years before that ( 1 day events ) were
completely unbelievable.

Yeah that would be sweet, The last couple times I went, the
show was only 1 day, but there is a HUGE HUGE grassfield I
would imagine they would use for camping. I would be pissed
if they made you pay for a spot...

Either way Ill be there!!!=)

In fact I think we should get a whole grip of xltronicers to
come and rough it in some adjacent camp spots. That would be
so cool.

There are a tone of sites, some are really great. I found a
few by a "river", Im sure there are some naturey spots
there. I think theres an Indian reservation there as well.

It would certainly be cool to reserve a couple of camping
spaces and have a big freak out after the concert.

i went when squarepusher played-- i was a bit dissappointed
boys.
not in the music, the talent there was high. but its made
out to be a festival, and i really didn't get that vibe.
for one, there's no where to just sit out, and there's not
much else going on. it's on the move from one tent to the
other.
lots of passed out kids getting kicked.
then, on the last note, eveyone's pushed out the gate -- i
slept in a van on the grass field, and when we woke up, 3000
vehicles had dwindled to about 15.
maybe the afterhours were in the campground, but they
weren't there.
everyone road trippin.
then again LA must be the intoxicated driving capitol of the
world.
