Coachella 2009!

04.17.2009 | Entertainment | 13 comments

So every year around this time I get to chill and hang out at one of the best yearly Music Festivals: Coachella!

Here is the Lineup for 2009.

Sometimes it’s tough when certain bands overlap that I want to see on certain days. I usually hit up the bands that I have never seen and probably never would. Like European Bands that never travel through Phoenix!

Please let me know in the comments who is for sure a band I shouldn’t miss seeing!!!

:)

Becka Knight: Looks like fun! (17/04/09, 07:58)

Ryan: That outdoor stage lineup is tight! Especially on Friday and Saturday. I also wouldn't want to miss T.V. on the Radio or Yeah Yeah Yeahs. (17/04/09, 07:59)

Angela Hubbard: have a really AWESOME time! jealous.. I have been every year BUT... (17/04/09, 09:25)

Michele B: That's a pretty sick lineup! The Cure is my all time favorite band, but you should also check out Beirut and Groove Armada. Girltalk is fun in concert too. Just my 2 cents :) (17/04/09, 09:47)

amelialyon: Matt, so glad Hudd could get you tickets every year...isn't that awesome?!!! Two best friends going to Coachella! Have a fun and watch out for eachother:) (17/04/09, 09:53)

Andreanna: Hav fun! I so wish I could have made it to at least see Morrissey and Paul McCartney. I can't believe the awesome line up they have with everyone else too!!! (17/04/09, 10:58)

Brandon Lowe: Don't miss P.O.S. on Saturday! (17/04/09, 11:50)

cactusshadowsmystery: my only suggestion is to not miss ariel pink. its a damned miracle if the bastard even plays. i've tried to see him twice now...both times, a no show. (17/04/09, 02:08)

tracylynnt: I wouldn't miss M.I.A for all the money in the world. Cloud Cult, Band of Horses, and Conor Oberst. (17/04/09, 04:24)

Michelle Moore: Wish I was there! (17/04/09, 05:21)

cristen chester: we REALLY wanted to make it to coachella this year...but sadly couldn't make it work schedule-wise. so much great music going on in that lineup! have fun! (17/04/09, 07:22)

brenda: oh man i have to go to this some year before long. how do you even decide what to see and what to skip??!! (17/04/09, 09:45)

BK: A lot of good music here, damn. Wish I was going! Need to give a shout for Paolo Nutini and Glasvegas who are locals boys. Enjoy. BK (11/05/09, 03:45)
