Coachella, the first major festival of the summer, just revealed it’s entire lineup earlier today, after a pretty long period of waiting and waiting. Headlining the event will be Jay-Z, Muse and the Gorillaz, joined by other incredibly talented acts like Them Crooked Vultures, Grizzly Bear, Yeasayer, The Dead Weather, Flying Lotus, Hot Chip, MGMT, Pavement, Ra Ra Riot, Vampire Weekend, The XX, Owen Pallett, Sly and the Family Stone or Thom Yorke???? (not sure…
Those masters of the shoe gaze, My Bloody Valentine, plan to inflict another dose of high-octane, high-volume progressive sounds at a secret LA show – said to be a warm-up for their Coachella appearance at the weekend. They will perform at the El Rey Theatre, located on the city’s Miracle Mile, on April 16th. For anyone who hasn’t heard it already, Kevin Shield’s guitar-laden wall-upon-wall of sound shook the plaster off many music venue ceilings…
This year’s Coachella fest lineup just went live yesterday night, and from the looks of it, it just seems worth going to. Kinda. It’s actually kinda last year’s lineup, a cool balance between big names and indie small timers. Speaking of last year, if you were a bit mad My Bloody Valentine didn’t play Coachella ’08, despite the ever revolving rumors, you can rejoice as they’ll be one of the headliners for the last day….
I was really heartbroken when I came to sense I couldn’t possibly make it to this year’s Coachella Festival. I’ve always been a fan of this wonderful weekend musical extravaganza, even though a lot of people have been a bit disappointed with this edition’s lineup. Dudes, Coachella is still Coachella, no matter what bands play it. Anyway, one of the bands that played there, this last weekend of 25-27 April, was none other then Cansey…
Yes, you’ve read it right folks, Prince has been added to this year’s Coachella lineup, as a Saturday (4/26) headline, joining other acts like Breeders, Portishead, MMJ, Kraftwerk, or Roger Waters. When he’s not suing fans, his royal majesty, Prince, actually makes some music. To be honest I pretty much despise Prince for all that he represents, but while it’s clear I’m not anywhere near being a fan, I have to admit he’s a great…
Well 2007 was a year of reunions and it seems this year is going in the same direction. Now, the latest name that hit that list is English rock band formed in Wigan, the Verve. They haven’t started a tour in more than 10 years, but they already announced thier North American tour will start at The Warfield in San Francisco, CA on April 23rd, warming up for its performance at the Coachella Valley Music…
That’s it guys, after months and months of lineup speculations, the news are in, for this year’s Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, that takes place between April 25-27, in the hot, but always cool Indio, California. No big surprises here, with no spectacular bands announcing a comeback or something (we’re obviously thinking about My Bloody Valentine), but there’s still time for that. The lineup is still very solid with such headliners like Roger Waters…
