    Last time I checked….Chromeo, M.I.A., Vampire Weekend, Les Savy Fav, The National, Jens Lekman, Death Cab for Cutie and Jack Johnson do NOT make a sucky lineup. Why don't you get some musical taste, Perez?

    He is soooooo HHHHHHHHHHOT. He is a great writer/performer and can tear up the guitar and piano….he is really good looking in person but is shorty shorty short (like 5'2" !! His confidence and talent are what make him (as with any rockstar) super sexy. A concert outside in the heat is not for me though. Hope whoever goes enjoys.

  47. Too Bad for Perez says – reply to this
    47

    Naturally, you would say the line up sucks because you haven't been invited to participate and you fancy yourself some kind of musical wunderkind. Sorry to say it, Perez, but not everyone in the world likes poseur pop bands who copy the sounds of talented artists before them. That said, Coachella sucks now because it's gotten way too big for its britches. It was way better before it became a photo op for drunk celebs.

    Perez WTF are you talking about, the coachella line up is fucking amazing. Why should Prince perform there? WHO GIVES A RATS ASS ABOUT PRINCE

    Just because MIA and SIA are your only bitches in the lineup doesn't mean is sucks. It means you personally don't have enough invested to keep your interest.

    The lineup rocks!!! cept Jack Johnson. He will get more applause if goldenvoice burns him alive rather than letting him sing.

  52. AD says – reply to this

    Ok Perez I have had enough of you. I like your site, it is funny, but saying the Coachella Line-up is shitty moves you to a realm that I can't even give a name for. What is it with gay men and their complete lack of originality when it comes to musical taste? Madonna has not done anything good since 1989. Britney has proven she is nothing but a talentless piece of white trash. Yet gay men continue to eat that shit up Don't even get me started on the rest of fag music. Thats right you heard me. Fag music. I am a gay man so I can say that whenever.

  55. Coachella Rocks!!!(Cont) says – reply to this
    55

    As a gay man it pains me to see our community be so closed minded when it comes to musical tastes. Aren't we supposed to be a cutting edge group of people always on the front of pop culture trends? With the mainstream music industry dying a slow death it is indie music that will thrive. That is what Coachella is all about. Sure it was not originally as good as last years headliners but now with Prince it is as strong as ever. The "lower" acts are amazing. Architecture in Helsinki, Vampire Weekend, VHS or Beta, Battles, Tegan and Sarah, I could go on forever. These are acts that actually put thought and real feeling into the music they write, record, produce themselves. Do any of the bands/divas you push on this site do that? No. Why? Because all it is is a bunch of "safe" crap that is written by writers and producers who are out to make a buck. Yes bands/artists need to make a living. But it should be based on real talent.
    So before you go on saying the line up sucks stop and think for a second will ya. Because fag music sucks. Always has sucked, and always will suck. So fuck off.

    Re: Coachella Rocks!!! – love that you ripped on madonna in this post, do you remember maddonna's performance at COACHELLA in 06? cause i did and it sucked ass, just like the overpriced "indie" festival will this year. I knew it was downhill when they added jack lame johnson.

    I was just going to comment on Perez's bad taste…how is that line-up shitty? Look at all the up & coming artists…beats the shit out of Janet Jackson and Madonna. At least these artists have depth and talent, as well as sick DJ'ing skills…love to see The Jonah Brothers on a pair of turntables. Blech Perez…I used to think you were alright…not so much now. Go listen to MGMT!!!
