Official 2009 Lineup Approval Rating:

[PlayaDelWes]

How does the approval rating of the lineup change over time?

That’s the question we’ll answer with the same poll asked over the next 5 months.

Scale is 1 – 5, and I will publish the weighted average in each of the subsequent polls:

January 30th Approval Rating: TBD
February 28th Approval Rating: TBD
March 28th Approval Rating: TBD
April 15th Approval Rating: TBD
April 30th Approval Rating: TBD
July 31st Approval Rating: TBD

Polls will expire.

[one2fast]

its freakn horrible it lacks electronic and hip hop acts =(

[Courtney]

I like this idea and will be interested to see how approval changes over time.

[paulb]

i approve, its ok though...could be a little better.

[Newro7ic]

its freakn horrible it lacks electronic and hip hop acts =(

I wish someone would take your keyboard and beat you over the head with it.

[thatfinkleygirl]

for now, i am in LOVE.
but that could very well change before april.

[ivankay]

i love it. This shoulda been a public poll.

[boarderwoozel3]

The Sahara needs help, bad.

Girl Talk, Thievery Corporation, Roni Size, The Crystal Method, MSTRKRFT and Groove Armada? Some solid under-cards but where are the big guns?

The Fri. and Sun. trios are so good though. I like.

Voted average at this point.

[pancakespancakes]

I think I would vote 4/5, but, I still "love" it. So I voted the top choice. I think it could use some adds but for me personally it's awesome and it will be a wonderful weekend.

But this is a great poll idea. I most FULLY approve of this thread! :thu

How the fuck do you
Call the Groove Armada the

How the fuck do you
See Thievery Corp. as the
Fucking undercard?

Who do you see as
The OVERCARD? Christ's Second
Coming in the Tent?

[sin213]

looks good to me. friday is gonna be my loaded day. tons of good stuff.

Friday > Saturday > Sunday

[betao]

The Sahara is looking good. Friday could use a hand though.

Sunday is set.

Saturday could use a name or too as well. Would Thievery headline the sahara though?

[luckyface]

Dani already said there is more to come in the Sahara, so I think we could see some big names coming down the pipeline to fill in the top of the Sahara.

[sin213]

that'd be cool. still some basement jaxx and chem bros hope?

[sin213]

totally psyched for the crystal method.

[Smokenut]

all above mentioned = zzzzz

there will be two phases of more artists to be added(i hope)

thievry should DJ set the Sleeping tent

[Drewsky]

Average to below average. I thought this festival was suppost to be unique, not the county fair.

[Memorial_07]

I love it but it has a lot of potential to be better but I think it's the best lineup overall since '07.

[Jakewc151]

I would say I love it, but Saturday almost has nothing for me so right now I'd say it's OK. I am definitely going to go though mainly because I have a feeling that like last year it's going to be a lot easier to get around and get closer to the stages!

[davrone]

I am loving Sunday and Friday, Saturday is missing something. *coughs*Bowie*coughs*

[Derekx]

It has potential. It's good enough for me to go, but I really do hope the Sahara adds are bigger names like Underworld or Chemical Brothers.

[uniform72]

Average, and a little underwhelmed right now... anti-climactic to say the least.

[Prof. Amaretto]

Just wait guys, Springsteen is coming.

I'd say it's about average now.

[Jon Blazed]

fucking amazing

[Jon Blazed]

I <3 it.

[JULIAN F]

TO GV:

PLEASE...SAVE COACHELLA...GIVE US ANOTHER HEADLINER............

[JelloPuddingChat]

The only reason I put ok is because I feel like the sahara needs some help. Not necessarily in the big name dept, just more. But holyshit some of my fav bands are on here. I jjust can't wait to see amy winehouse get knocked down from her spot. The same goes for PB&J. How the hell do you put Public FUCKING Enemy or Groove Armada under them?!

[Kid B]

I love it. Friday is going to be one of the best days in Coachella history.

[PurpleDanks]

Love it but would love to see some robots ;]

[dancE Electric]

theres no intelligent electronic music at all...add bassnectar in the sahara at dusk and ears will orgasm.

[Memorial_07]

Love it but would love to see some robots ;]

don't worry there will be plenty of scenesters

[frozen pilgrim]

I want kraftwerk back. add them or the chemical brothers to saturday and everything's gravy.


well, everything's already gravy, so things would be friggin'... poutine.

fuck yeah.

[Sleepingrock]

well, everything's already gravy, so things would be friggin'... poutine.

fuck yeah.

ahaha So canadian =D

Polls will expire. So, let me get this straight...If the poll goes through July 31st, then I can sit back and watch all the IDIOTS that drove me nuts posting their negativity for the 2 months prior to the fest, finally eat crow for the 2 months after the fest? Shit, I know it's early but,I'll start the BBQ! 5800 posts??? How the fuck did that happen?

[Sokkerkid101]

GIVE ME KRAFTWERK OR GIVE ME DEATH!

[benhur]

I'm at aprove - its OK

....to make it I love it please add one of the following: Basement Jaxx, Underworld, Pavement, Stone Roses.

or three of the following: M83, Deerhunter, Primal Scream, Chemical Brothers, Tricky, Wire, Built to Spill, Yo La Tengo

[instinct]

wow.. i am really shocked by this poll.. I thought this is by far the worse Coachella line-up.

[instinct]

How the fuck do you
Call The Crystal Method the
Fucking undercard?

How the fuck do you
Call the Groove Armada the
Fucking undercard?

How the fuck do you
See Thievery Corp. as the
Fucking undercard?

Who do you see as
The OVERCARD? Christ's Second
Coming in the Tent?


Groove Armada is a dj set.. that's why it is an undercard.

[boarderwoozel3]

How the fuck do you
Call The Crystal Method the
Fucking undercard?

How the fuck do you
Call the Groove Armada the
Fucking undercard?

How the fuck do you
See Thievery Corp. as the
Fucking undercard?

Who do you see as
The OVERCARD? Christ's Second
Coming in the Tent?

Point conceded on Groove Armada and Crystal Method. But they need to bill out a big name on Sat. to oppose the mainstage.

[PlayaDelWes]

As of Feb 2, and after 177 votes, the initial approval rating is 4.01 (out of 5)

In a few weeks, this poll will close and a new Approval Rating poll will be issued.

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

so far its average but i have high hopes for Coach '09 ;)

[PlayaDelWes]

So, is there general interest in this for 2010?

[psycobetabuckdown]

er, sure why not
