Back to business

Just got back from a long holiday vacation. Things are looking weird for this festival. Apparently, while I was gone, The Killers became an official headliner.

The Coachella Message Board says that these three will be there, as well:

The Airbourne Toxic Event
Drop The Lime
No Age

Not too familiar with those bands, though.

Man, you are way off on some of these. Black Keys are playing, 100%. I'd put No Doubt at 100% too, as well as the Specials.
