Last night the interweb was ablaze after the Coachella 2011 lineup was announced. I saw more than enough "OMG" facebook posts for me to head over and investigate myself. The verdict...eh.
There's a handful of bands listed that I really like but I've already seen (or plan to see shortly) them play recently. There's a bunch of other acts I wouldn't mind seeing but not for the monstrous 3-day/million dollar price tag that comes with it.
Truth be told, I'm really not too found of paying a shit ton of money to watch bands play from miles away amongst crowds of thousands. Call me spoiled, but I'm so accustomed to watching my favorite metal acts play in venues the size of my apartment and then have conversations with the dudes afterward, I don't think waiting two hours for Kanye West's lighting rig to be installed onstage sounds too appealing in comparison.
Maybe if I was a little more like these folks I wouldn't mind so much...

ReplyDeleteSome good bands, some bad. Mixed bag there.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely some awesome bands on that lineup that I would love to see, and I'm sure there are some that I've never heard of that I would really like, but that price/time commitment is way too steep (mainly price).
ReplyDeleteCrystal Castles and Bright Eyes are win, the rest = bleh
ReplyDeleteWorth the money IMO. i don't go to enough concerts, but when i do, I'm always like "shit, i should go to more concerts"
