Whoa...that looks like a line-up I'd be pretty stoked to see. Any information on where its coming?

Rockafella Skank 01-29-2004 02:51 PM

WOW! Great lineup!

djxio 01-29-2004 02:55 PM

This particular festival is held yearly in Indio, California. It's hot...it's dry and there's not much for miles, but a great place for this venue. I'm really excited about this line up...I mean the Pixies are playing together again for the first time since the early 90's!

IamAlejo 01-29-2004 08:18 PM

Man, that hurts. I'd love to see a lineup like that travel around the country. But it would be difficult. O well, I can dream.

djxio 01-30-2004 08:21 AM

yeah I know :(

I just feel lucky it's somewhere I can drive to.

But if I only saw the Pixies I would be happy as a clam.

im flyin out there for the weekend....it should definitely kick ass....im looking forward to radiohead, sparta, the pixies, and the flaming lips the most

IamAlejo 02-24-2004 04:51 PM

I'd love to fly out there, but it's cross-country. So I don't really see that happening.

Edgil 02-25-2004 01:49 AM

Don't forget to charge yourself far too much money!!


Ooh and giving yourself food poisoning is optional.

jibber 03-11-2004 07:35 PM

ahhh, oh i should punch myself in the face too, just like in a real mosh pit

Shan 03-12-2004 03:30 PM

ROFL!

Yep that pretty sums it up. Don't forget to turn up the thermostat to unbearable since this one is held in the dessert. I imagine that would cook you nice and well into that mudbath, but hey your skin would look fabulous once you chipped yourself out of there!

p.s I'm still bummed I didn't go :P

What about stagediving and catching yourself...

... Or maybe inflate a gigantic beachball and pass it along to yourself...

Why are people bumping threads about festivals that happened nearly 5 years ago?
