10:15 a.m. Update: According to the Kevin & Bean show, Coachella is “still working on the big names” and consequently, the expected 7:20 a.m. lineup announcement has been postponed. This jives with an email we received earlier this morning. We’ll keep you updated…
By this time tomorrow, the lineup for the Coachella 2009 will have been offered, devoured, and digested. With an announcement imminent, we figured now would be a good time to open things up to you, the reader. Feel free to use this post to share your hopes, dreams, predictions, and any news you’ve found.
