Journal red5's Journal: Music fests. 8

So they've announced the lineup for the next installment of Coachella I think I'll go again this year if I can scrape the dough together.

I was thinking about if I were to make my own music festival who would I want to be there. Here is my list.
  • Groove Armada
  • Tricky
  • Jungle Brothers
  • Massive Attack
  • David Bowie
  • The Streets
  • Morcheeba
  • DJ Shadow
  • Dub Pistols
  • Freestylers
  • DJ Qbert
  • Télépopmusik
  • Röyksopp
  • Lemmon Jelly
  • DJ Rap
  • BT
  • Felix Da House Cat
  • Underworld
  • The Cranberries
  • Beth Gibbons(Remember the girl from portishead? Well, she's gone solo now. )
  • The Cardigans

Quick list of things I wouldn't want.

  • Blue Man Group. The power of suggestion at work. keep telling people something is great and they'll believe you.
  • Dirty Vegas. They had a cool song that got waaaaaaaaaaay plaid out and all the rest of their songs sound exactly the same.
  • Marolin Manson. (His fans scare me)
  • Michael Jacson. (ditto)

Thats all I could think of just now. What would you want at a music fest?

  • My ex-boyfriend saw Blue Man Group in Vegas, and he can't stop raving about them. I've only seen bits of them here and there on television, but to me they seem totally bizarre. Anyway, I'll be in Vegas in July and my ex keeps telling me that I MUST go see these guys.

    As for the rest of the people on your list, I feel totally out of the loop. The only ones I have really heard of are the Cranberries (whom I love), The Cardigans, and Bowie (of course). Wow, am I getting old?
