Coachella organizers tweeted on January 6 that the line up for the 2012 festival (to be held on consecutive weekends in April) would be announced "next week" (i.e. this week). Sure to be the premiere 2012 rock event for the West Coast, there are high hopes that this year's line up will feature some of the most popular acts of the moment, as well as some up and coming artists... of course there will be outstanding indie rock and 80s/90s nostalgia acts, but expect awesome hip hop and electronica to be on offer as well, on the various stages and in the various tents under the desert stars, next to the palm trees... and there might be as much going on in the camping as there is on site....
a few acts have been "announced" on the festival's website www.coachella.com with the posting of a video featuring a song by artists such as reggae superstar Jimmy Cliff.... Arctic Monkeys are rumored to be among the headliners for Coachella 2012, as are The Black Keys, Radiohead, and The Foo Fighters....
ReplyDeleteThe Weeknd was just announced for Coachella 2012 by a video post on the Coachella site.... the message boards are currently down for "maintenance"... does that mean they are about to announce the whole line up??? If there is a God, please God, let it be The Stone Roses.....
