Yup

[Homer J. Fong]

I'm going to avoid the Sahara like the goddang plague. Looking at the lineups for the past few years, I don't think a single EDM act I like has played. The good stuff seems to wind up in the Mojave or Gobi.

Are you camping or staying in a hotel?

Also, are we FB friends? I have a hard time matching real names to inforoo names sometimes.

I am camping at this point but I might have enough points to get a hotel, we shall see. I'd definitely be up for meeting you guys at some shows. And no, I don't believe we are.

Yes. Can we also count you in if Beyonce is there?

You've got a nice collection of cats there Phi.

Seems to be the case.

Are you going to meet up with us at all Mr. Juggs?

It is a straaaaaaaange place. I have seen some pretty nasty things in there.

I'm pretty likely at this point, but unfortunately weekend 2 works a lot better than weekend 1 for me, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do.


I really need to change this picture. I don't even like Beyonce that much, but I think she'd make a better Saturday headliner than the last couple we've had, and I'd enjoy the chance to see her considering I'd never go to her solo shows. I was just trolling all the "DURR POP MUSIC SUCKS" mouth-breathers.

[Don Flamenco]

She came out and did "Forever Young" with her hubby in 2010. She's even better looking in person horn, no need to change the picture.

Not if you're hanging out at the Sahara.

Paul Kalkbrenner and Kill The Noise have apparently said they are on board for Coachella 2013. Whoever they are.

[elimsnéttikyzarc]

Whoever they are, you and Abra should come check them out. Weekend 1 please.

[krstphr]

Just added Paul Kalkbrenner to my playlist for when I drive to Memphis tonight. Will report back soon.

[Phi]

Kill The Noise is electro/dubstep on Skrillex's OWSLA er wahtever label.

[Don Flamenco]

Been listening to Paul Kalkbrenner all afternoon. Digging it.

[krstphr]

Yup, Kalkbrenner is very solid.

[gardenfresh]

This is me as soon as I step into Coachella:

[gardenfresh]

And if by some miracle I am somehow convinced to get down and boogie in the Sahara tent, I'd imagine this is what that might look like:

[Phi]

According to Sigur Ros's new US tourdates CoS now has them as expected for Coachella!

[krstphr]

So far Coachella rumors seem to keep going my way. 2013 is going to feel so right.

CoS has a tendency to jump the gun on stuff like this, but with them lingering on the West Coast for almost a week, I'd be inclined to agree with their analysis here.

Still strongly considering making my first trip to Coach this year if I can make it work with my school schedule. Especially if they land The Replacements.

For some reason this sentence doesn't make sense to me. Why not just say "based on Sigur Ros' tour dates, they look likely for Coachella"? I'm just confused as to why you threw in the "CoS has them as expected" bit, when all CoS is going off is the dates.

I'm fully prepared for Sigur Ros to be closing out the Outdoor while Daft Punk plays on the main or something. Conflicts.

Because CoS has them as "Expected"?

Right. But CoS only has them as "expected" because of the tour dates, and it's not like that "expected" designation means anything more than that. They don't have inside info or anything. I was just wondering why the CoS mention was needed is all. You could have just said "these are the tour dates" and it would have meant the same thing.

I kind of just hate CoS.

[rosko]

I think part of it was the construction of your sentence, Phillip. The way you wrote it makes it seem like Sigur Ros' tour dates have it listed that POS (er, COS, excuse me) has them as "expected" for Coach, which is an odd notion. Sorta like this:

04/12 – Phoenix, AZ @ Comerica
04/12-04/21 - COS, the website run by complete hack writers, has us as expected for Coachella 2013!
04/17 – San Francisco, CA @ Bill Graham Civic Auditorium

Haha.

[Phi]

Lol i reported the CoS in there as to not take credit for finding the tour dates and gap myself. I posted it because I saw it on CoS?

Someone has a case of the Mondayssssss

Who gives a shiz? Good report Phi, definitely good news.

[FuzzyWarbles]

I will look similar to this most of the weekend
