Coachella 2010 Lineup!

Finally the 2010 Coachella Lineup has been announced. This year I am going with my friends Kurt, Dan and Mikey and a couple of other friends of theirs. This is my 40th birthday gift to myself. The rumor mill was churning for months and most of the rumors were true, and there were several other surprises that are very exciting.

For me, the acts I am most excited to see are the following (in no particular order):

Friday:

LCD Soundsystem
Vampire Weekend
Grizzly Bear
Public Image Ltd (no Jah Wobble and Keith Levene though)
Specials
Echo and the Bunnymen
Fever Ray
Grace Jones!!!
La Roux
Yeahsayer
White Rabbits

Saturday:

Muse
Devo
Hot Chip
Dirty Projectors
The xx
Mew
Flying Lotus
Girls

Sunday:

Gorillaz
Pavement
Thom Yorke
Phoenix
Orbital
Sly and the Family Stone!!!!
De La Soul
Gary Numan!!!!
Deerhunter
Yo La Tengo
The Big Pink
Rusko
Florence and the Machine
Miike Snow
Ceu
Delphic!!!

Friday and Sunday are going to be complicated owing to the large number of bands I want to see. I might have to make some last minute executive decisions. I am just hoping that most of the bands are not playing at the same time.

I haven't been this excited for a trip in ages. I will definitely be doing lots of posts and pics from the festival so stay tuned for April 16-18!
