Pure, unadulterated childhood joy! 🙂

Since someone else took the spot at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, I honestly feel I have every right to be upset...

jadeskipper18 said:Kiril Džajkovski confirmed on Facebook that he's coming back 🎉 🎉 🎉

It would be truly wonderful if he would just "shine" a bit less in America... He is honestly about as exciting as a stomach flu.

I came across this rumor circulating on an international forum:

"The Red Hot Chili Peppers are set to perform on June 23, 2010, here in America!

While there is still about a 10% chance things could shift and certain logistical specifics need to be finalized, it feels like a nearly guaranteed deal...

They would be appearing as one of the headliners for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival..."

Hershey's Napolitanke covered in chocolate glaze. When they’re actually fresh, there isn't a single one left in the entire world! Just thinking about them right now makes my mouth water...

want? Did anyone here even suggest that maybe 😉 Billy or the Flaming Lips should be part of this
?

We didn't even know if Billy was still breathing until the announcement dropped.
And I'm the one who actually started the whole rumor mill regarding the Lips way back on January 8th, 2008.🙂

I am just waiting on those Bivacyn drops to arrive, which I desperately need for my sinus treatment! If anyone happens to have some sitting in their medicine cabinet, please send me a private message. I am more than willing to buy them!

This melodic, retro indie pop carries such a wild, driving energy reminiscent of The Smiths, yet I suspect even those who aren't typical Smiths fans will find themselves captivated by it... Truly a brilliant album. You simply must get it!

Actually, Indie Rock Scene is known to perform alongside Feist... I wonder if we might see a potential new artist at Coachella this year? 🙂

Wonderful news indeed!
Indie Rock Scene released their phenomenal "You Forgot It in People" way back in 2002, and now they have a new album on the horizon that is supposedly just as incredible...

quietcobra said:Look, you guys already have a dedicated thread for the concert, so what does Coachella have to do with any of this?

To be perfectly honest, I truly hope there is absolutely no connection whatsoever... 😲

Kevin Chavez3 said:No.

And what about... ☕

Kevin Chavez3 said:I would also be willing to drop thousands of dollars just to fly a band all the way from America to the States to perform music that mimics local folk tunes🙏 🙏 🙏

The fact that Los Caballeros were named one of the best mariachi groups in the world at an international meetup in Guadalajara... isn't that quite significant?...

Imagine how incredible that show would be if they actually confirmed it! 🙂

I find it absolutely baffling how everyone constantly brings up Gogol Bordello—who have already played in New York twice, by the way—yet nobody seems to mention Beirut, or Devotchka, who play much more skillfully...

It really shows the narrow-mindedness of Americans... they only ever care about what's being spoon-fed to them!

(And yes... Devotchka did the music for "Little Miss Sunshine"... and they even wanted to perform at the very first Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, if there had been any interest)

nimbleheron3 said:What exactly is the logic behind posting that on the homepage before anything else goes live...😕 By the way: hey, Rise Against...☕

Rise against Jeeej!
It seems as though every fifteen-year-old and younger is finally about to get exactly what they deserve... this geriatric-pedophilic association just keeps on going... ☕

Paolo Nutini needs to be brought here; he is pure magic...

Yeah, if you're only twelve years old! ☕

Haven't they already played here back in the day, maybe three years ago?

They definitely played, and honestly, it was easily the greatest performance in the entire history of this festival! Anyone who missed The Stooges and caught them instead will surely understand what I mean... Absolutely wild, just purely fantastic...

Jesse Sanchez60 said:that kind of vibe belongs in a theater, not at music festivals...

Live performances are true spectacles, but unfortunately, they were far too expensive for anyone who hadn't even released an album yet...

Now that they have finally dropped the record, prices are bound to skyrocket...

Given how incredible the quality of the released album actually is—it’s not surprising at all!

I would truly love the opportunity to experience the wonder that is "The National"...

We really ought to be selecting bands that possess the sheer power to absolutely dominate festival-style stages:

Just listen to the beginning of "Do you realize?" by the flaming lips (starting from the 1:40 mark) and try to imagine that energy exploding at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYYRjzuk__w
