I just don't like that Main Stage tickets are sold separately from the festival tickets. Is that typical? Or am I misreading their page?

They've been doing it for awhile now. The main stage tickets are free, but they're handed out first come-first served the day of (inside the festival). They started doing it once they started having real big names for the main stage because they need to control capacity some how.

Quote:

This year's music acts include:
The Shins, Wu-Tang Clan, Panic! At The Disco, Crowded House, Lupe Fiasco, Steve Earle, DeVotchKa, Devendra Banhart, Gogol Bordello, Kill Hannah, Norma Jean, Plain White T's, The Gourds, Lyrics Born, Roky Erickson & The Explosives, The Holmes Brothers, The Avett Brothers, Yungchen Lhamo, Allison Moorer, Magnolia Electric Company, The Aggrolites and many, many more to be announced!

Well I booked us a room at the "Marriott's Shadow Ridge Villas at Palm Desert:" - a bigger price than I originally hoped to pay, but at least the amenities are a bit more thanebayed Motel 6 ressies going for the same price are far less than the $500/night the remaining hotels in the area seem to be charging. We'll save a bit by checking out Sunday and going home from the venue. Our room can accommodate 4 people, so if anyone should chance upon some tickets - I know a place you can stay.

Now back to researching the bands...

OKay - I know no one else is going, but set times were announced and it looks like we're going to have to make some hard choices - or just keep running from stage to stage. Friday closes with Bjork - DJ Shadow - Gogol Bordello.

Other tough choices/sprints across the polo field include:
Interpol - Faithless - Brazillian Girls
The New Pornographers - Peter Bjorn & John
The Decemberists - !!!
The Arcade Fire - Coco Rosie
Blond Redhead - Justice
Gotan Project - LCD Soundsystem - Sparklehorse
Tiesto - Cornelious
Air - Lilly Allen
Manu Chao - The Teddybears
Rage Against the Machine - Infected Mushroom

On the plus side it seems things get off to a later start this year, hopefully the hotel's a nice place to hang out. Oh and it looks like we may hit triple digits this weekend.

I heard that, also.

I had heard something else and was going to post it but forgot.

But, have a great time and enjoy the hotel, too. Sounds like a nice place.

Not Afraid · 04-25-2007, 09:48 AM

These are some mighty tough choices. Here's how I'm feeling today (subject to change)

Bjork - DJ Shadow - Gogol Bordello. - This is the toughest choice. I want to see all 3!
Interpol - Faithless - Brazillian Girls - We've seen Brazillian Girls and I am leaning towards Interpol at the moment.
The New Pornographers - Peter Bjorn & John - PB&J get my vote.
The Decemberists - !!! - !!! All the way!
The Arcade Fire - Coco Rosie - Arcade Fire - I've been wanting to see them live again since the previous Coachella.
Blond Redhead - Justice - Justice in where I'm leaning.
Gotan Project - LCD Soundsystem - Sparklehorse - I'm thinking LCD Soundsystem.
Tiesto - Cornelious - Cornelious
Air - Lilly Allen - Air
Manu Chao - The Teddybears - Tough call, but Manu Chao is winning - unless Iggy Pop shows up.
Rage Against the Machine - Infected Mushroom - Eh, either or .....or just go home.

Infected Mushroom! Rage is Rage, yawn. How often do you get a chance to see the premier Israel Psy Trance act?

Not often enough, damnit.
