My Dream Coachella (+ Yours, Sitting in a Tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G)
So, you know how every year, months and months before anyone has even spoken to any of the bands, people start cranking out fake flyers for the current edition of Coachella?
America’s favorite sweethearts, Kevin + Bean (♥4ever!♥) will be spilling the beans (that came out wrong) about this year’s official line up on Tuesday morning, I hear. BUT, WHO CARES? Who do YOU Want to see?!?
Let’s fanfiction Coachella. Make it all top of mind bands. Dead, alive, still together, hate each other and will never play together again – don’t let reality stop you! 3 Strange Days of what YOU want.
I threw together this list of bands I’d love to see all in 72 hours (and know I must be missing some faves, but, OH, WELL! They never all show up anyway, so…)
FRIDAY – Day One:
NIRVANA SOUNDGARDEN
Buddy Holly The Clash THEM CROOKED VULTURES Silversun Pickups
Radiohead Dead Kennedys Mr. Johnny Cash Juno Reactor Ministry Bad Religion Prodigy Puscifier 311 Sir Mix-A-Lot The Gossip Brazilian Girls Air Miike Snow The Black Keys Joan Jett & the Blackhearts Morcheeba
SATURDAY – Day Two:
LED ZEPPELIN NINE INCH NAILS
THE ‘IT MIGHT GET LOUD” 3 Flight of the Conchords Pearl Jam Pixies Tool Sex Pistols Sonic Youth Oingo Boingo The Faint DJ Shadow White Zombie Eagles of Death Metal Kodo Sweet Adolescents Yeah Yeah Yeahs Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Happy Hollows
SUNDAY – Day Three:
THE DOORS MUSE
THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE Oasis Prince Lady Gaga DAVID BOWIE Santi White Supergrass The Smiths Weezer Cut Chemist Phoenix Nouvelle Vague Madness Propellerheads Roxy Music Portishead Röyksopp Fischerspooner Sigur Rós
K, so, comment below or, better, email me your list and I’ll sell it to Coachella and makes lots of money from your work. Sluggo@KROQ.com

props on the “It Might Get Loud” 3, that would be a collabo of epic proportions. Kinda like when Tom Cruise, Will Smith and David Beckham all touched wieners…

Um…hello? How about QUEEN? Black Sabbath-(30 years ago of course)? Pink Floyd with Syd Barrett? Johnny Cash? Frank Sinatra? Miles Davis with Coltrane? But the ultimate headliner for any show would have to be Bob Marley…seriously how much fun would THAT show be?
