Everyone bar Gogol Bordello, Only because he is going up against Bjork. But he is playing at red rocks this summer with Manu Chao so I am not worried!!

There are four that I'm upset about... but they play at the same time as others...
Brazilian Girls is playing at the same time as Interpol (I'm seeing interpol).
Circa Survive is playing at the same time as Amy Winehouse (if she shows up, I'm seeing Amy)
CocoRosie is plaing at the same time as Arcade Fire (there's no way I'm missing Arcade Fire)
And Sonic Youth clashing with Interpol is horrible... I'm not sure what to do...
I think I made the right choices, but they still make me sad.

Interpol vs. Sonic Youth
Winner - Sonic Youth (by a close margin).
Man that's gonna suck to miss Interpol.

It's a band, not a "he".
The guys name is Eugene Hutz. (I think)

Lemme see...
Friday
- Of Montreal or Silversun Pickups - I'll probably go SSPU since I'm familiarized myself with their album more so than Hissing Fauna... Although I heard they put on a disastrous show at the Casbah, from a friend of mine who works there. >.x Besides, I want to see half of Tilly anyway.
- Circa Survive or Amy Winehouse - Well, I dig Amy a whole lot more, so I'll be there, but don't expect me to wait 25 minutes for her to drag her drunkass self on stage.... >>;
- Peeping Tom or Jarvis Cocker - Yeah... It's shitty. I need to figure out which would be a better lead in for Faithless... I think it's going to be an on the fly decision, even though I'm seeing Rufus Wainwright right before either act (and Peeping Tom's in the same tent).
- Faithless or Interpol - Already decided this; Faithless. Why? Interpol ALWAYS tours So. Cal. for some strange reason, so I'll catch them, and by then I'll have memorized the lyrics for the new album. Plus, Faithless is a rare, rare performance on the west coast.
Saturday
- Regina Spektor v.s. Hot Chip - This isn't really a conflict more so than when am I going to leave Regina to catch Hot Chip... I'm figuring to leave her around 4:20 to catch most of Hot Chip. =/
- The New Pornographers v.s. The Nightwatchman - Funny... This is the conflict of bands with hype that I've heard little from. I think New Porn will win this one without much of a fight because I'll get my fill of Morello on Sunday.Plus, I want to see the Decemberists and they're on after New Porn. *shrug*
Sunday
- Happy Mondays v.s. Damien Rice v.s. Ratatat v.s. Teddybears - Not only is there no way possible I'll get a feasibly good spot for Rage via these choices (not that I really intend to get one amid that massacre of a riot), but I'm actually torn between the 4 acts... I think Happy Mondays might do it for me, but I'm praying that they don't implode and/or suck live. If that's the case, I'll try scrambling over for Teddybears at Gobi because I figure it to be the least crowded.

i've got a few conflicts myself. i'm happy about who i am going to be able to see though. i'm also glad that i'll have some time between sets to do some exploring.

Lemme see...
- Peeping Tom or Jarvis Cocker - Yeah... It's shitty. I need to figure out which would be a better lead in for Faithless... I think it's going to be an on the fly decision, even though I'm seeing Rufus Wainwright right before either act (and Peeping Tom's in the same tent).
Are you nuts? Go see Jarvis. Peeping Tom tours America more thoroughly and this is the first Jarvis tour in America since the east coast Pulp tour back in 1998, and only includes five other cities. Mike Patton is always going to be around to promote his inferior side projects, while Jarvis is thinking about retiring from music for good.
- Faithless or Interpol - Already decided this; Faithless. Why? Interpol ALWAYS tours So. Cal. for some strange reason, so I'll catch them, and by then I'll have memorized the lyrics for the new album. Plus, Faithless is a rare, rare performance on the west coast.
Good point. It's bad enough that Sonic Youth is on the same time as Interpol. Hmm.
- The New Pornographers v.s. The Nightwatchman - Funny... This is the conflict of bands with hype that I've heard little from. I think New Porn will win this one without much of a fight because I'll get my fill of Morello on Sunday.Plus, I want to see the Decemberists and they're on after New Porn. *shrug*
These two bands are also at the same time as PB&J and Travis. I'm skipping the New Pornos because Neko Case won't be there, and the Nightwatchman plays LA every Saturday.

And personally, it looks like I'm going to miss Sonic Youth, Faithless either JAMC or Peaches (would much rather see JAMC but I need to stake out a spot for Jarvis), Rufus Wainwright, Tilly and the Wall, DJ Shadow, Travis, New Pornographers, Justice, Girl Talk, MSTRKRFT, RHCP (no big loss, lol) Sparklehorse, Nightwatchman, !!!, Willie Nelson, Lily Allen, the Lemonheads.

For the most part, I think everything will work out fine for my schedule.
My two major conflicts
Friday:
Bjork playing right after Sonic Youth. No way in the world I'm not going to be at that stage prior to Bjork's performance, but I could care less about Interpol.
Saturday:
Stephen/Damien Marley vs. Amy Winehouse. Still don't know which one I'm going to have to miss. I want to see both badly.
Sunday:
I'm going to have to miss Damien Rice, and that truly truly breaks my heart. But there is no way in the hell, I'm not going to be at the main stage early. Especially with all the crazy Rage fans as enthusiatic as I am.
The work outs:
I get to see Kings of Leon and The Black Keys (for some odd reason, the black Keys are closing the Mojave stage, following the Chili Peppers time on the main stage).
I get to see the Roots and Lupe Fiasco, Cocorosie, and some other artists I really wanted to see.
But Damien Rice is my biggest sacrifice. I'd like to catch at least 30 minutes of his set, but I think it's too big of a risk of not being upclose to see Rage.

Love to see you taking a vested interest in my dilemmas, man. XD Seriously, thanks. I dunno, I mean, I've never seen either frontman in concert before, too young for both Pulp and Faith no More (and the rest of Patton's side projects), and I'm a fan of both self-titled discs... I just wonder what kind of mob scene Jarvis' crowd is going to be like... Then again, I wouldn't have a huge problem with cutting from Rufus Wainwright early...
These two bands are also at the same time as PB&J and Travis. I'm skipping the New Pornos because Neko Case won't be there, and the Nightwatchman plays LA every Saturday.
I don't get Peter, Bjorn and John, so I suppose it's my loss. Honestly, it is a coin-flip choice yet again, but New Porn leads into the Decemberists who I'm dying to see live... =D

This is the only downside that I can possibly think of about Coachella. You just never get to see all that you want.

5-15 minutes, depending on distance and traffic. At night it becomes a bitch to navigate, which is why I try to stay in one general area.

a few:
9:45-10:35 Faithless (I’ve seen Interpol-5x, Faithless-0x)
10:45-END Gogol Bordello or Bjork (ugh, are you kidding me)
8:40-9:30 Girl Talk, or Blonde Redhead, or Justice (I seriously can’t decide here either)
7:10-8:00 Klaxons or Placebo (again, seen Placebo a bunch)
