His Name Is Prince...

You know how I posted the clip of Prince singing his version of Radiohead's "Creep?" Well, an mp3 of it has magically popped up on the interweb.

One Little Piggy...

The organizers of Coachella are offering $10,000 and four lifetime passes to the festival for anyone who returns Roger Waters' inflatable pig.

It seems that it broke free from it's cables this weekend and is floating around somewhere. I guess that means it won't get broken out for his show in Dallas on Friday. Didn't this very thing happen on The Simpsons once?

Anyone with information can contact the organisers at lostpig@coachella.com. (Rock & Roll Daily)

Lotsa Coachella

Well, there was a lot of stuff going on this weekend. Well, just Coachella really. And to a lesser extent the first ever Norman Music Festival. But, This is all about the Coachella.

Prince covers "Creep" by Radiohead.

An interview with Mikey Rocks of The Cool Kids.

An interview with Geoff Barrows of Portishead and review.

Review of the Prince's set.

Coachella From Your Couch

If you're anything like me you will be sitting at home this weekend or doing stuff around the house or around town. And you didn't get to go to Coachella. But, the good folks at AT&T Blue Room will have live webcasts of the grand time being had in Indio.

Click here to see band schedule times. I personally will tune in to see Portishead since this will be their only U.S. Show of 2008.

Coachella Is A Mixtape

If you go over to I Am Fuel, You Are Friends you can get a mixtape courtesy of that fine blog.

It's a good little mix for your trip out to Indio. Or, if you want to fall into a pit of pity because you couldn't afford the tickets, airfare and hotel expense, then this is the next best thing for you.

That's Bull-jive!

Apparently Portishead isn't into the "touring" thing at all. Adrian Utley has confirmed that when the band plays Coachella this weekend it will be their only Stateside appearance this year.

BULLJIVE! I've waited 10 fn years for a new album to come out and you aren't going to tour?! That's messed up dude. And besides, now my wife can keep telling me how awesome it was to see Portishead in Austin 10 years ago. And I will have to bow my head again and say "Yeah, it would be cool to see them."

Dude, if you don't do it for anyone else, do it for me. (Spinner)
