more than likely true. coachella this year will have the beastie boys and:
Also on board is a strong roster of DJs and electronica figures (Underworld, Groove Armada, Darren Emerson, Timo Maas, Richie Hawtin, et al.) and a presence of the burgeoning electroclash world (Fischerspooner, Ladytron, Felix da Housecat).
Mexico’s Kinky and Caf� Tacuba represent Latin rock, with Sweden’s Soundtrack of Our Lives and Germany’s Stereo Total adding international reach.
Others confirmed include Ben Harper, Johnny Marr, Tortoise, Polyphonic Spree, Cat Power, Ben Kweller, Hot Hot Heat, Joseph Arthur, Thievery Corporation, Dirty Vegas and a package of artists from New York underground hip-hop label Def Jux.”
Tortoise! TORTOISE!!!!!!!! tortoise tortoise? Tortoise tortoise tortoise. Tor tor tor toise oise. Tortoise.
For me.
do you just like turtle friends? or do you actually know who they are?
I *heart* Tortoise. Turtle-friends I’m not as crazy about.
so this means you’re coming though? YEY!
Of course! Was there ever any doubt?
nahhhhh! i mean you came last year! original group reunion! whoo-hoo! i am so excited 2 months in advance!
my bro is protesting lack of funds for bringing stylus, about which i am uber-bummed. but he might come anyway to see the beastie boys and groove armada. this is going to be so awesome!
add red hot chili peppers and princess superstar to that list. maybe we’ll get to hear the follow up song about her boyfriend in the shower and the kid’s dad banging her on the couch. ah yeah, princess.
Man I am more excited about the Blue Man group. They were fucking awesome in Vegas, I can’t wait to see what they come up with.
Wow, and Johnny Marr is gonna be there too. The guy who wrote the music for the Smiths. I almost would maybe have gone if I was there.
hm. well…i do know who some of these people are. but there are precious few i would pay to see in concert, unlike last year’s lineup. so…what do i do? do i trust that coachella will not lead me wrong, and will introduce me to many fine groups who are new to me, even as it did last year? or do i save that $150+ for rent and food?
man i am so torn. i had SO much fun with you guys last year. and there were some really great people who i hadn’t heard of up until then…but the thing that really justified the money were the artists like bjork who i wanted to see more than life. i don’t know what to do! and i hate jack johnson more than citizen put the dog down.
Remember, there’s more than just music at Choachellla. There are claw-robots and steel women that shoot flames out of their boobs.
MUCH more than just music.
Didofoot – I think it sounds awesome, and you should go on faith. And besides, you could go there and rally against Jack Johnson. He could be Public Enemy #1, eh?
And robots. robots are always cool.
besides this isn’t the whole line-up yet so you shouldn’t even be making a judgement yet. although i have already made a judgement strongly in favor and will have the time of my fucking life while you sit at home and stare at your toenail jam. i hope that makes you reallllly happy in the long run.
ahhhhhH!!!!!! ben folds!!! ben folds is going to be there!!!!! EEEEEEE!!!!!!!
also badly drawn boy and g love and the special sauce, kristen. =)
