Last year was pretty sick, no doubt. And it’s all very relative, too — Coachella is one of the earliest announcements and always tends to *BLOW AWAY* whatever else has been announced before it. These days, that’s Langerado and SXSW, two totally different festivals.

In regards to pointers, I’d say Kraftwerk and Battles is a good spot to start. My Morning Jacket, Rogue Wave, and Spank Rock are all pretty good, too. Really everything on every day is pretty awesome.
