- Posted: 1 yr 8 mos ago Comments (2)
CORONA, California – Last night was the sixth annual Coachella kickoff party thrown by Filter magazine. While
Filter had a very succesful turnout, the organizers couldn't get a grip on how to turn everyone away. [cut=What happened?] That made the overall experience a complete turnoff.You arrive at the party by shuttle from a casino parking-lot pickup, and you are taken down a long dirt road, which, if you are not from the area, you probably… in Coachella

Is Prince Cramping Portishead at Coachella?
- Posted: 1 yr 8 mos ago
With an event as huge as Coachella, there's bound to be some clashing. The three-day festival in Indio,
California, has barely begun, and already there are reports of unhappy musicians.

Portishead member/instrumentalist Geoff Barrow has never been one to keep his thoughts from the press, and he doesn't seem to care who might get peeved by his… in Coachella

- Posted: 1 yr 8 mos ago
[cut][/cut]It's been five years since we last heard from Spiritualized, but the wait is finally over. The
experimental psych-rockers are making a grand return with a new album and an exclusive iTunes EP. [cut=Read more...] Songs in A&E is the first album since Amazing Grace, and judging by the noisy guitars and choir on the first single, "Soul on Fire," the record is sure to deliver on the group's trademark sound. At this point, "Soul" is available only by stream on… in Coachella

[cut][/cut]It's always tough trying to catch all the bands at a music festival without missing your favorites,
and coordinating the experience with your friends. So, to make life easier, the folks over at Coachella have created the Coachooser (Coachella + Chooser). It lets you designate which bands you are planning to see on each day, and avoid the ones you don't. Now that you've got your very own custom schedule, don't forget to join your… in Coachella
