The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has announced the bands to perform at the Empire Polo Field in Indio, California. This is just one giant good time, and has over 100 bands performing during the three days from April 17-19.
Paul McCartney will headline the first day, and then The Killers doing the top billing on day two, and English rockers The Cure taking the top spot on day three.
For a full Lineup of all three days, and ticket prices, you can go to the Official Coachella Website. The 2004 event, featuring a reunion of the Pixies, as well as Radiohead, Kraftwerk, The Cure and a number of other major bands, was the event’s first sellout, with 50,000 tickets sold for each Saturday and Sunday. Since then, the festival has continued to generate large draws due to strong lineups from top to bottom, including such bands as Nine Inch Nails, Coldplay, Depeche Mode, Tool, Daft Punk, and Massive Attack.
The event has lots of camping area, and it is actually encouraged. Coachella also has room for campers, and has lots of art exhibits.
Here is a link to view Coachella Videos of performers, and general mayhem from the three day event.
