And so it begins. Festival season has become a 'thing' in the United States for the last several years. It is spread out from April to October, and there are more of them than you can count. The three heavy hitters are Coachella, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza. Coachella seems to be getting more attention because it is the first one, and they have been known for things like Kanye West's performance post-Taylor Swift, Tupac hologram and this year, they bring OutKast together who have not toured since 1999.
My thoughts on the lineup. I would be all for Saturday as a fan of a lot of the top acts. Beck is a puzzling choice near the top of Sunday. They obviously want to appeal to the EDM fans of the world as Coachella brings in several of the most popular acts. Lorde performing before Lana Del Rey could be the worst thing for Lana if we wan to get into the pop music side of it. I do not know much about concert lineups, but this is not like 'Holy shit get me there' so I will go with a B/B-.
