What's wrong with the 23rd?

I really don't want to have to make this decission.

Anaheim schools are out April 17-21, as are half of the surrounding school districts. April 23 attendance is expected to be very high.

Also, we would have difficulty staffing the event fully on the 23rd. April 23 is our second choice date but we'll only go to it if something makes April 30 an impossibility.

New and revised line up from the official site:

Most noteable change the additon of Daft Punk to Saturday - they still are promising that more additions may be announced...

Well, this blows. How the hell can we choose? We haven't missed an MA since we started attending in 2001. Last year, Coachella was a defining event - we almost never buy music, and after the event we bought albums upon albums, some of which is now among my favorite music. Missing either of these would be awful, and there's no way we're doing both.

:(

skip coachella, do the MA.. and go to a cool festival in Europe. There are a jillion of them, and it's the swanky, globe-hopping, jet-setting thing to do.

I have Coachella, MA and a birthday party that is being planned for me in Vegas that weekend. I need two clones.

I suspect I will be doing Coachella on Saturday and MA on Sunday and pushing Vegas back. That is assuming (yes, I know) that MA doesn't require 2 days.

If Coachella's line-up was a tad more enticing, it would be a no brainer. As it is, there's nothing completely "sending" me. But, I've also done MA for years and feel like I can miss one - I've missed before. I'm NOT doing both. If MA's at DCA, that will factor in as well.

And, Jesse, I see nothing wrong with doing Coachella AND doing a European festival. Which one are you up for, eh?

No, MA won't require two days, at least on to play it.

Ok... here's my radical plan: MA in April... then the Reading Festival in the UK at the end of August, and on the way back, you all meet me at WDW.
