The Somewhat Yearly Coachella Post

It’s time!
This year, I’m going for all three days, sharing a rental property with some friends, and (insert Orange County inflection) I’m so stoked, bro.  I was so excited because Grace Jones was originally in the lineup, and anyone who knows me knows that when I grow up, I want to be Grace Jones.  But, alas, her name isn’t on the website anymore.  BOO.  But, for the first time, there are performances on all three days that I want to see.  Here’s who I’m looking forward to:
  • LCD Soundsystem
  • Benny Benassi
  • Ceu
  • Muse
  • Faith No More
  • MGMT
  • Devo (yesssssssssssss!!!)
  • Orbital
  • De La Soul
  • Infected Mushroom
I LOVE LIVE MUSIC.  You can refer to previous posts here and here to get a sense of my previous Coachella experiences.
I’m going to start a video feature of the my favorite Coachella artists this year under the "Coachella 2010" box over there ------------------------------------------------------>

Related – I was musing over facebook about how wonderful it would be if Soundgarden got back together for one last tour.  They’re another band I was really into before they broke up, but I was too young to go to their concerts.  My homie directed me to their website:  apparently, a reunion is in the works.  DUDE, if they were a last minute add to Coachella the way Prince was a couple years ago, it would more than make up for Grace Jones not being there.  I’d freak out!
Here’s some Chris Cornell sexiness for your afternoon.  Men – look, and be jealous.  Ladies – salivate.
