Actually, Bumbershoot had quite a bit more than 55 bands (500 perfomers by their count). You can view the entire 4 day list here:<BR> <A HREF="http://www.bumbershoot.org/allartists.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.bumbershoot.org/allartists.html</A>; <P>And Austin had 69 act in two days.

Lollapalooza 2003 lineup annouced
Well, i dont know too many of the Bumbershoot artist (maybe 1/2, 5 of which i would actually care to see) and the Austin City thing looks to be a completely different kind of show altogether, i dont think there is even a comparison.<BR> Thanks for the info tho, very interesting<P><BR>
Can't be denied that Coachella has an impressively long list of popular mainstream acts.The fact that they have so many popular acts no doubt contributes to the hefty ticket price.<P> <P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial, Veranda">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by sonickteam2:<BR><B> Well, i dont know too many of the Bumbershoot artist (maybe 1/2, 5 of which i would actually care to see) and the Austin City thing looks to be a completely different kind of show altogether, i dont think there is even a comparison.<BR> Thanks for the info tho, very interesting<P><BR> </B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>
at least it doesnt have anything called a "Jam Stage" YIKES!
If you are referring to the jam stage at the Austin City Limits Fest, I'll take those artists over the loud, aggressive hard rock bands on the Lolaploosa list. I'm not that familiar with the ones on the Austin jam stage list, but Luna was on the jam stage, and they'ere a pretty damn good little band. Also, the list of alt-country performers on the Austin list was quite impressive.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial, Veranda">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by sonickteam2:<BR><B>at least it doesnt have anything called a "Jam Stage" YIKES!</B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>
<BR>Excellent point. Rock and HipHop acts, and DJs (especially DJs) get paid MUCH more than jazz, altcountry and bluegrass musicians. Making the cost of the concerts way way high.<P>take the Beastie Boys and Oasis out of Coachella and the price would probably drop $20 right there!!! <P>Therefore we have 2 completely different concerts at 2 completely different prices!!<P>maybe the Radiohead/Coachella rumor will turn true and i'll have a reason to pay $120!!!<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial, Veranda">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Henry Dark:<BR><B> If you are referring to the jam stage at the Austin City Limits Fest, I'll take those artists over the loud, aggressive hard rock bands on the Lolaploosa list.

How about just calling this tour "Hooray For Grunge" or "Early 90's Snoozefest 2003"…..

Tickets are no problem……the problem is a place to crash……we stayed at the marriot last year……gotta jump on the phone as soon as the lineup is announced……
My friends and I were thinking of camping out there last year, maybe we'll do that this year as we didn't end up going last year.

Coachella:<P>Beastie Boys<BR>White Stripes<BR>Jack Johnson<BR>N.E.R.D.<BR>The Donnas<BR>Black Eyed Peas<BR>Blue Man Group<BR>Underworld<BR>Groove Armada <BR>Darren Emerson<BR>Timo Maas<BR>Richie Hawtin<BR>Fischerspooner<BR>Ladytron<BR>Felix da Housecat<BR>Kinky<BR>Café Tacuba<BR>Soundtrack of Our Lives<BR>Stereo Total<BR>Ben Harper<BR>Johnny Marr<BR>Tortoise<BR>Polyphonic Spree<BR>Cat Power<BR>Ben Kweller<BR>Hot Hot Heat<BR>Joseph Arthur<BR>Thievery Corporation<BR>Dirty Vegas
and that only like 25-30 of them. with 4 stages and 2 days, thats most likely only HALF of the list. since it wasnt really like the HFStival and all the same bands both days.<P> i have my plane ticket AND hotel already. We got a Motel 6, 7 miles away from the venue for $60 a night!<P>
and on certain bands websites, and label sites they have themselves listed at Coachella as well<P> Chemical Brothers, Z-trip, Bjork , Foo Fighters, Pink and Oasis are among those.
