Is it me, or does this seem like a more interesting lineup than Coachella? Is it fair to compare? It even has so many of the same bands....

#2 Zack says:

METALLICA!

#3 CN says:

If you like electronic music, then Coachella's lineup is tons better. Bonnaroo has more ROCK. I'd take Sigur Ros over Portishead anyday though...and Pearl Jam and Metallica over any of Coachella's headliners. So much overlap this time though. Given my interest in electronic stuff, I prefer Coachella. Definitely jealous of Sigur Ros and Mastodon.

#4 sean says:

I don't see how anyone could find this to be that much better than Coachella. Headliners for either festival are pretty boring (Jack Johnson at both? What the hell?).

I like this for Sigur Ros, Ladytron & BB King. But otherwise Coachella has the edge for me.

#5 Nope. says:

It's "Swell Session."

Nice try, though.

13 minutes to go...

#6 CN says:

Coachella's main poster has it listed as "The Swell Season" as well so I'm not sure what you're talking about #5.

#7 Once Again says:

It is "Swell Season"--that guy from The Frames and his co-star in that indie sleeper hit ONCE

#8 nice work says:

The Daily Swarm nailed it...

#11 Sean says:

enough said............................!

#12 rachel says:

why does jack johnson have to stick his monotonous ass in my two favorite times of the year, bonnaroo and coachella

#13 peaceb says:

Sean - it's not Led Zeppelin, it's LEZ Zeppelin, an all-female tribute band.

Robert Plant is performing with Alison Krauss this year.
