It's that time of year again. The lineup will most likely drop on the 20th, with a small chance of the 13th. Tickets will go on sale the Friday after.

I will update the OP as more information becomes available. Until then, get hyped.


As of today, there are 99 days left until camping opens.

Tycho should be in this year, as well. New album in March, he passed on an offer to play in 2013 to focus on finishing his album (or so I've heard).

Bonobo posted by Coachella. Guess I'll finally able to see him without paying $50-70! (skipped out on the last two opportunities in SF because of ticket pricing)

I am hearing there aren't any Weekend 1 camping passes to be had for those of us who bought at the presale? IS THIS TRUE?? Where did I go stupid and miss out on this?

edit: someone tell me that they will release those tomorrow at 10am PT and I'm being a big baby.

No. This is not true. There are camping passes that will be on sale with GA.

There is enough room in the entire campgrounds for everyone who goes to Coachella. If you don't get a camping pass, find someone with a campgroup you can join. Generally speaking people go in groups of, i dont know... 3-5 or so per car camping spot, sometimes more. Not sure about non-car camping

e: I am willing to open my campgroup to any lost goons but you'll have to find your own transportation to/from indio.

The website says all Week 1 GA passes are sold out and so are the week 1 camping passes. The only thing going to be available is a limited supply of GA + Shuttle Passes. Dammit.

Keep me in mind if you come across a week 1 + car camping please! It's probably going to be a long couple months.

I'm pretty sure their website is currently not accurate. I find it hard to believe they sold 70,000 tickets at the presale, i was under the impression presale was 20k

Incoherent, do you know?

e: Coachella has never sold out during presales, I wouldn't worry about it at this point but there are people on coachella forums saying it's accurate, but I don't trust any of them.


e: :siren: Lol, yep. 888-512-SHOW. All camping is SOLD OUT for weekend one, and so are just GA ticket sales. You'll have to get a GA+shuttle pass (like $25 more) :siren:

My internet shut off last night for unknown reasons and was still off this morning. A friend is staying with me and had to go to a nearby Panera bread to try to get tickets, I don't think he's going to have any luck.

Way to make yourself look like you know nothing about music. Electronic music is the biggest and most varietal genre of music right now, by far.

Things I have discovered recently:

> Caravan Palace (at a party I was at on friday. Loved it. Then heard the Sunday after that they are playing at Coachella? gently caress yes)
> I thought that duck sauce was lovely electro house/dirty dutch. I don't know why. Probably because Afrojack used to play the poo poo out of that terrible song Barbara Streisand. Anyways, I discovered they are more disco house and am now super stoked to see them.

If anyone is interested in meeting up with a bunch of goons, please let me know. I'll try to organize something. Fill this out or PM me or something.

Likely will be Fri or Sat morning (around 10/11am?), let me know if you have a preference. I'll give out my number to anyone interested, and my phone will be charged all weekend

My campgroup will be in very early Thursday if anyone wants to hang out

Rollcall:
1. jonmitz (+4 goons, +3 non goons)
2. incoherent ?
3.
4.

Going to make it for :siren: Friday morning, anytime around 10-12 (or earlier/later) :siren:, come hang out, get high in the desert with goons, whatever.

I don't plan to go in too early on Friday - but really hard to know for sure until timeslots come out.

I'll post an update Thursday early afternoon with our campsite cross street and identifying info. As I said before, my phone will be charged all weekend thanks to an awesome 15000 mAh battery I'm bringing. All goons are welcome to stop by at any time over the weekend and hang out with our mostly-goon camp.

The Do Lab stage is moving to the new food area (5 acres), and the Yuma is supposedly now an L-shape, much larger, and has a beer garden inside

Do lab set times are slated to come out today

I actually was going to skip flume on account of seeing him.something ridiculous like 3 times in the past year, but he has been in the studio supposedly working on new stuff the past couple months. I'm hoping he'll play some of it.

In the previous 3 years I've been to Coachella I've been to the Heineken dome (now called a house I guess) I havent enjoyed it, so I didnt even bother checking out the lineup this year. From what I've read here and on the Coachella forums it sounds like it was indeed pretty amazing this year.

but... I'm going 2015 so I'll give it another shot then!

I got in line at 9:59am and then at 10:01 my computer screen went grey and restarted. Thanks Apple!

My girlfriend was able to get me a ticket though, but we don't have a car camping pass so that's going to be interesting. Maybe we will camp offsite next year...


e: incoherent is going to swap me his car camping pass for one of our GA. awesome <3 goons are da best

Shuttle pass alone is going for $200 on stubhub. :)

Yeah good luck with that. Shuttle passes are not in high demand. In fact, they hardly have any demand at all. You will likely lose money on your shuttle pass. They were selling for like $20-30 this year.

Hasn't it been late January recently, are we sure it's coming out so soon?

Either way, I'm hoping it's incredible because there's a chance this might be my first time not attending since '09. Experience another big festival maybe. But a stellar Coachella lineup wouldn't be so bad.

Its been trending earlier and earlier every year. Predictions are tomorrow (6th) with tickets on sale Friday, but I'm more inclined to think it will be next week. Either way, since the tickets sell fast and go on sell very quickly after the lineup, now would be a good time to let people know they are probably going on sale soon!
