Coachella Music Festival’s lineup is out and the show is right around the
corner.
This week for Coyote Watch we surveyed several students on campus and
asked them a few questions about Coachella.
Matt Slocum(Sophomore):
“I have a lot of friends [who] go every year, [but] I’ve never been. I briefly looked over [the lineup]…it’s cool; it’s like really diverse. It goes from artists like 2chainz to Modest Mouse. I like the older bands like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, I’d like to see them.That would be cool. [The line-up] doesn’t have as much hip-hop it seems like last year, it’s kinda different you know?”
Mayra Beltran(Freshman):
“I’ve seen part of [the lineup], I [like] Red Hot Chili Peppers. [I’ll] most likely work at Coachella, because I live over there. There’s a lot of [artists] that I don’t know [on the lineup]. [They should] just get some more alternative rock bands on there.”
Amanda Fernandez (Sophomore):
“[The lineup]…it’s ok. Personally, I’m not into the rock music. A lot of the rock bands I don’t really care for, Modest Mouse, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, it’s not really my genre in music, so i wouldn’t really want to go see them. I’m into more of the electro artists, or some of the hip-hop artists, like A$AP Rocky. I’m probably not gonna go, if it was a lot cheaper I’d probably go just to go. If someone invited me to go for free, I would go.”
Amanda Moore(Sophomore):
“I’m going. [I’m excited for] Red Hot Chili Peppers. Who else? Passion Pit, they’re my favorite! Who else? 2 Chainz is gonna be there. I have [the line-up] on my phone. I look at it all the time. [But] I don’t know who the headliner for Friday is. I’ve never gone before, this is gonna be my first one. I’m stoked. I’ve heard from a lot of people that the line-up isn’t as good just because…I guess it used to be more rock and roll, and now they changed it. [I’m looking forward to] seeing the bands, and just the atmosphere. It’s about the music but it’s also about the atmosphere, and I’m really excited about that.”
