In the name of fair & balanced reporting, here are the acts keeping me from Coachella this year:

Paul McCartney: his fans are old, and it’s entirely possible they will die at the sight of him.  You do not want to be near legions of dying Beatles fans.

Morrissey: his singing will make you kill yourself.  and if that doesn’t do it, his fans will make you kill yourself.  (see also: The Cure, My Bloody Valentine, Leonard Cohen)

The Killers: they are awful, and they MUST have awful fans.  Being around awful fans wil make you kill something.  

Amy Winehouse: she will rape you for drugs. 

Fleet Foxes: will put you to sleep.  And I’ve a hunch all their fans smell of patchouli. (see also: blitzen trapper, dr. dog, ariel pink’s haunted graffiti)

That should be enough information for & against.  CHOOSE WISELY.
