Well, it’s the big announcement of “who’s playing Coachella?” While Arcade Fire, Kings of Leon, The Chemical Brothers and an odd appearance of Duran Duran certainly make for an interesting headliner list, the rest of the line-up is wrought with very few names that make the hair stand up with excitement. Shpongle could prove to be the sleeper hit in the list and Flogging Molly always brings the heat. NAS and Damian Marley will make Sunday a nice treat on a day where the big name on the marquis is Kanye West.
What do you think of the line-up? Is it impressive enough to get you out to the desert? The event is set for April 15-17th in Indio, CA at the Empire Polo Fields.
Tickets go on sale on Friday January 21st, 2011 at 10am PST. Packages start at $269 for three day pass.
