A perfect line up for Coachella 2010
My favorite day of the year is the day that Coachella releases its lineup. I like it more than the actual concert (because I am an idealist.) Today the lineup was released, and it's making my heart skip a beat. (I also just drank lots of coffee, so that could also be the reason.)
I think this is one of the best lineups I've seen in years. The key to a good billing is simple. You need:
You don't want to like all the bands. If you want to see every band, you'll end up feeling disappointed because you've missed sets. This also provides an important gap in your schedule. For example, I don't care about Public Image Ltd, which means when they perform, I can buy a churro.
Bands billed at different font sizes means they'll play at different times. So you can actually see them perform. If you really wanted to see Muse and DJ Tiësto you'd probably be out of luck, because they will be going on at the same time.
I am excited to see these bands:
Friday: Jay-Z! The Specials! Grizzly Bear! Sleigh Bells! Calle 13! Wale!
Saturday: MGMT! Hot Chip! Gossip! Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes!
Sunday: Pavement! Thom Yorke! Phoenix! Sly and the Family Stone! Matt & Kim! Rusko!
Who are you looking forward to?
Check out Friday's act Passion Pit, on their Embedded Tour Stop.
I think this is one of the best lineups I've seen in years. The key to a good billing is simple. You need:
- Bands you have no interest in seeing.
- Bands that you want to see in all font sizes.
