Nope. You're thinking of The Wall, which is another monster hit album for them. You may have heard of the movie...

Morrigoon - don't feel too bad. The vast majority of the acts are lesser known, and on purpose. The few top bands bring you in but it's the surprise new acts that make Coachella a true experience. :)

With all due respect, Alex ... no maybe with less than that ... why venture forth with your opinion that the lineup may be better or worse when you freely admit you DON'T LIKE MUSIC???

But now the question is .... should this be the year to bust my Coachella virginity???

No Debbie Gibson? No Vanity 6? No Sigue Sigue Sputnik? No Scritti Politti? No JJ Fad? No Sweaty Underwear with a Side Order of Tofu Band?
What's this world coming to?




:D


I'd see Jack Johnson. But only because he's cute.

I offer no opinion on the quality of the line-up. Just on the quantity with which I am familiar. The "better/worse" comment was in regards to whether others would prefer a lineup full of bands and musicians so broadly known that even I had heard of them or full of performers that have had their success without quite reaching that threshold.

The only reason I mentioned it is because we had talked about it and that question last year when there were a few more bands in the former category.

And I don't dislike music. I am just indifferent to it and find the societal fascination with it to be perplexing.

Somehow I knew this post was forthcoming.

So I've been wracking my brain for a couple of days trying to decide the best way to sneak my "professional camera" (they define "professional camera" as "any camera with a removable lens" :rolleyes: ) into the show. My best plan so far...ask for press credentials!

Reading through some stuff on the internet, I have 2 chances of getting them. Slim and none. But sure as hell can't hurt to ask.

You could sneak it in under a large toupee.

Jen could arrive "pregnant"

Alex 01-23-2008 04:27 PM

It might hurt to to get it depending on how (or if) they control credentialed press. For example, there have been Disney press events where the cost of me being there as press is that I don't get to move outside of a very small area and then only with company and a reason.
