The Coachella lineup is here. It's actually here! There have been ten tons of fakes, some quite convincing, and many of which had the Rolling Stones headlining. (West Coast Sound, however, broke the story that they would not appear.)

But never mind all that! The lineup is here, and the headliners are the Stone Roses and Blur the first night, Phoenix the second night, and Red Hot Chili Peppers the third night.

The full lineup is below

On first glance, it feels like a letdown, at least in the opinion of someone who would have loved a Daft Punk, Justin Timberlake, Rolling Stones headlining trio.

And, of course, no Smiths reunion, as is rumored every year -- though there is Johnny Marr. But the Stone Roses reunion will be an event, and any festival with New Order, Wu-Tang Clan, and Nick Cave can't be all bad. Oh, and Earl Sweatshirt!

The festival takes place in Indio, California over two weekends April 12-14 and April 19-21.

Goldenvoice has balls for putting Blur and the Stone Roses at the top of the bill and should be commended for it. As the biggest, most prestigious fest in the US, they have that power to define what is a headliner.

Not Gonna Happen! Coachella is an anti-rock waste of time wishing it was some Woodstock affair. The fact you have to purchase an all weekend pass is Fascist! The fact that Coachella makes presage tickets before even announcing bands shows its about brand ego(Coachellas) and Not about music at all. Plus, it's for teens and 20 somethings! Plus, Coachella has a stipulation in their performers contracts that they cannot play area shows around the same time(2 weeks before or after), and No bands gonna come back to L.A. after that time. Coachella Sucks!

Lou Reed - but it's not worth going for one or two good acts when the other 98% aren't worth it.
