The Etc Etc Of Music

[Nemova]

I'm tired of those silly 80's knockoffs popping from everywhere. I saw a video of one of those new crappy sensations yesterday and it shocked me how similar - i.e. almost the same outfits, singing, lyrics and rhythm - it was from Prince's early works. The song had the same beat, vocals (a male lead singer with a female backing vocal) and, ermm, vibe (if any) of any of his old songs. And people buy their records and go to their shows and hype them 'til it's over and the next band comes in.

I'm so happy with my new acquisitions:

- "Chick Webb & His Orchestra with Ella Fitzgerald"
- "Sinatra - Love Songs"
- "The Summit In Concert - Frank, Sammy & Dean"

All the three costing the remarkable sum of R$27,97 (aprox. US$11)

these are the people that have been confirmed...they haven't announced who's playing what day yet. the rumour is NIN is headlining one night, and coldplay the other, but we'll see...

finally kim..

Coldplay and Nine Inch Nails will headline the sixth Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival, to be held April 30-May 1 at the Empire Polo Field in Indio, Calif. The fest will also feature reunion performances by pioneering rock acts Gang Of Four, the Cocteau Twins and Bauhaus, as well as the first live appearance since late 2002 from Weezer.

The first day's bill will also feature rock acts Wilco (who were originally confirmed last year but forced to cancel while frontman Jeff Tweedy underwent treatment for painkiller addiction), Snow Patrol, Keane, Bloc Party, the Raveonettes, Mercury Rev, Fantomas, Ambulance LTD, the Kills, Secret Machines, Spoon, Razorlight, Radio 4 and Eisley, plus, as first reported here, Doves and Rilo Kiley.

Electronica and hip-hop will be represented on day one by the Chemical Brothers, Sage Francis, Armin Van Buuren, Boom Bip, Jean Grae, Swayzak, M83, Josh Wink, Four Tet and MF Doom, plus the customary DJ set from Jane's Addiction's Perry Farrell (as DJ Peretz).

Beyond Nine Inch Nails, New Order, Bright Eyes, the Prodigy, Roni Size, the Faint and the rarely reunited hip-hop duo Black Star (Mos Def and Talib Kweli) are the top attractions on day two. The Arcade Fire, Junkie XL, the Bravery, the Futureheads, Matmos, Kasabian, Autolux and the Fiery Furnaces will also be on hand.

Tickets for Coachella will go on sale Saturday (Feb. 5) via Ticketmaster.

i think it's awful.. it's the kind of lineup that doesnt encourage me to be in the middle of the desert, dehydrated, surrounded by annoying people.

 

[softgrey]

geez..are you kidding..?!?!?...
i'd almost fly out to california just for that show...
what an incredible line-up...wonder if my cousin is going?...
is that anywhere near berkley?...

 

[MulletProof]

is that anywhere near berkley?...

hmm..I'm not sure as I dont live in the US..but I guess it's somewhere nearby.
Coachella takes place in Indio, right to the east.

I'd really do a couple things just to see the cocteau twins, the chemical brothers, bloc party and even NIN..other than that, it doesnt excited me at all..I remember last year I could've sold my body for tickets

 

[kimair]

the cocteau twins, black star and bauhaus...reunited?!?!



must...get...tickets...

softie indio is near palm desert...so cal...

 

[softgrey]

kimair...thanks...is that near laguna hills or laguna beach?..

 

[softgrey]

what is this...?!?!?!?!?!?


"you got me...playing in the distance...and you can offer no resistance"
heavy, driving guitars...droning male voice...almost like bauhaus....like something you would never hear on mtv...

please...i NEED to know...i love it so much...!!!
