I would highlight Nine Inch Nails, but then I'd have to highlight a lot of other bands, because there are a lot of really good acts on this list. Naturally, my first instinct when seeing a lineup this crazy is to discount it, but I'm fairly confident about our source.

God, REM, Sleater-Kinney and The shins in one night. I wish I lived on the west coast!

A totally unofficial, yet highly probable, partial line-up for Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2005 is running rampant on the Internet.
Festival organizer Goldenvoice says "nothing has been confirmed" but that's not going to keep fans from getting excited about who might be coming to Empire Polo Field in Indio, Calif., this spring.
There are plenty of hot acts on the list and a number of surprises, including David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails, and Coldplay.
And it wouldn't be Coachella without a bevy of buzz bands. The 2005 edition that's being circulated includes recent Shortlist Prize winner TV On The Radio, as well as Dogs Die In Hot Cars, Death From Above 1979, and Iron and Wine.
Goldenvoice isn't saying when the official roster will be announced, but here's the not-so-secret preview to whet your appetite:
April 30
David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails, Coldplay, PJ Harvey, Interpol, The Faint, Franz Ferdinand, Polyphonic Spree, Boards of Canada, TV On the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Squarepusher, Clinic, French Kicks, Secret Machines, Phoenix, Beep Beep, Dogs Die In Hot Cars, Death From Above 1979, and The Helio Sequence
May 1
R.E.M., Tears For Fears, Wilco, Bright Eyes, Jimmy Eat World, Mos Def, Badly Drawn Boy, The Streets, Cake, The Shins, Sleater-Kinney, Rilo Kiley, Radio 4, Doves, Iron and Wine, The Arcade Fire, and Moving Units
