I like to follow the Coachella Message Board's rumors section every so often. It's been a guilty pleasure read for awhile, now, but the trick is to only read it only twice a month, at most. It's a slowly moving evolution for them. Nothing new comes along and they argue amongst themselves about every thing that might or might not happen between now and April and why they hate mostly every thing that might or might not happen.
I came across this gem: http://coachella.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24072
Two things:
1. the Smiths are not reuniting
2. it's sad that people gave that post credibility by replying to it with hopefulness.
No new updates. I forgot to add Ladytron to the last post, but I don't feel like copying and pasting it for that.
Most accurate Coachella speculation source on the internet since 2008.

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.
