IN THE NEWS: Coachella 2010 Lineup Announced

I tend to agree that this year's Coachella lineup is, well, bizarre. There's definitely a lot there, but there's a heaping of hodgepodge as well. Some thoughts: I don't think Jay-Z will be able to rock this show (I mean, hip hop doesn't normally translate in the festival atmosphere); it's badass LCD Soundsystem is getting such credit, a couple years ago they played in a second tent while the Chili Peppers had the main stage; Them Crooked Vulture's album was not that good. Muse, Faith No More, and Tiesto is a pretty weak triple headliner, and should appease nobody; Sunday is the best day at the top of the list, but Friday and Saturday have plenty of winners throughout the day; what the fuck is Sly & the Family Stone doing at Coachella; I think I'll sit this one out ($269 + Ticketmaster fees). Maybe next year, party people.
