The Cure Booked For Coachella Festival The Cure will headline the second night of the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival on May 2 at the Empire Polo Field in Indio, Calif., according to a post on the group's official Web site. Event organizers confirmed the report to Billboard.com. The site also reports the addition of the Flaming Lips to the event lineup, which will also feature Radiohead, Kraftwerk and the reunion of the Pixies, as well as Air, Prefuse 73, the Thrills, Electric Six and LCD Soundsystem, among many others yet to be confirmed. Coachella tickets will cost $75 for one day and $140 for both days. The Cure's appearance follows a rapturously received set at last September's Inland Invasion concert outside of Los Angeles. As previously reported, the group will on Jan. 27 be the subject of "Join the Dots," a four-CD boxed set from Fiction/Elektra/Rhino.

Coachella seem to be rounding out nicely this year. Let's get Ima Robot in the and I might just wet myself.

Duuuude!!

The big news here is KRAFTWERK, and the reunion of the Pixies!!:o


I already did wet myself.:D

I'm so jealous! You guys on the west coast get all the good gigs! No fair!!!

Someday it will be revealed that there is no reason to live anywhere but southern California.

Except for all of the fake people..And the traffic..And the smog.. I'm stoked..I've gone every year and knew this year wouldn't be any different, but I'm glad there are some damn fine bands playing..Ima Robot would just top it all for me..The only thing that sucks is that the last two years, I've noticed a steady increase of frat dicks and sorority chicks there, which is just annoying..And to prove my point, my brother and his girlfriend are going this year! Ha! The first year was SO kick back and everyone was so nice..Ahh..And Beck headlined..Morrissey played..Chemical Brothers made me dance like I've never danced before..Ahhh..What a great year for Coachella..

Oh yeah..And just a suggestion..I would get my hotel reservations NOW if you plan on going..We got a hotel in Palm Springs the first year and it killed us..We already have ours! :D
