NYC is one of the best places to see live music. It’s pretty hard to argue against that. Whenever I see the lineup announces for the festivals outside of NYC, it’s a rare moment that I’m truly envious. Now that we no longer have All Points West (R.I.P.), there’s no convinient festival for New Yorkers.
The lineup for Coachella 2011 has made me very jealous. Arcade Fire, Kanye West, and Kings Of Leon headline. Then you got The Strokes, Animal Collective, The National, The Black Keys, Interpol and the truly unexpected return of Death From Above 1979. That’s truly amazing. Then as you go deeper into the bill you got acts like Crystal Castles, Sleight Bells, Cut Copy, The Chemical Brothers, Bright Eyes, Empire Of The Sun, Duran Duran, The Morning Benders, Ariel Pink, Klaxons, The Drums, Broken Social Scene, The Radio Dept., Foals, Two Door Cinema Club, Foster The People, Chromeo, and Duck Sauce. That’s not even half of it…
Are you kidding? That’s quite an amazing lineup. I’m actually seriously considering going this time. That lineup is too good to pass up. Who is with me?

Dude, I’m so in that it’s not even funny.
