Music: Yay awesome! Coachella expands into a multi-week endeavor

  • 2 weekends of hot, sweaty people dancing to tunes in the desert source
  • » The lineups stay the same, though: The Coachella fest, which has earned itself many imitators since it started in 1999 (including a retooled Lollapalooza!), will offer music fans options for the next festival go-around. They pretty much need to: This year’s event sold out in six days, despite the fact that over 90,000 people bought tickets. The bands will sign on for two weekends, not just one, so don’t worry about missing anyone.

Music: The Coachella lineup’s out; Macca’s a headliner?

  • Even weirder: So are the Killers. That said, this year’s lineup sounds pretty killer, with TV on the Radio, Girl Talk, Fleet Foxes, Morrissey, Leonard Cohen (!), Clipse, Lupe Fiasco, Amy Winehouse, Gaslight Anthem, Conor Oberst, Drive-By Truckers, Calexico, M. Ward, Fucked Up (hey, we’re not a newspaper, we can print that word!) and many other bands totally worth your time fronting a stage in the middle of the California desert between April 17-19. The downside, of course, is that the headliners (barring The Cure) are usually better than this. :( source
