"I hope you like rock 'n' roll, cause that's all we do!" That's what AC/DC's Brian Johnson told an audience of hipsters last night at the Coachella festival.
While Week One of Coachella is often the most hyped, the second weekend can offer some surprises as well. For instance, The Replacements rocked out with Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong joining them for much of their Coachella performance Friday night (April 18).
The second day of Coachella‘s two-weekend run included sets by everyone from old-school legends (the Pixies) to new-school stars (Lorde) and lots in between (Sleigh Bells, Pharrell Williams).
After teasing a Motorhead appearance earlier in the day, the complete Coachella 2014 lineup was revealed late Wednesday night (Jan. 8). This year's event features the reunion of hip-heroes OutKast, alterna-rockers Muse and Grammy winners Arcade Fire headlining the three nights, though there is still plenty of rock to go around.
The Postal Service's 10th-anniversary reunion has had a mighty busy week. On Tuesday, the group's only album, 2003's 'Give Up,' was reissued with an extra disc filled with rarities like B sides, outtakes and remixes. Last night, the band played Coachella.
As the release date for Daft Punk's long-awaited new album approaches, the French electronic duo is stepping up its promotion of the record. First there was the brief teaser last month that appeared during a 'Saturday Night Live' break. Yesterday, during the Coachella festival, they unveiled a nearly two-minute trailer for the album.
