COACHELLA COUNTDOWN – 81 DAYS: DFA 1979

By Mykal • Jan 24th, 2011 • Category: BLOG, FEATURES, MUSIC

There is only 81 days left until Coachella and although that may seem like a long time, you will be surprised how fast those 81 days are going to go by.

So from now until C-day, we will be featuring artists that we can hardly wait to see in the cocaine covered deserts of Indio. There are so many great bands playing Coachella this year, that it might be difficult for you to plan your schedule accordingly but for me it’s very easy… I’m going to Coachella for one reason and ONE reason only.
DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979!!!!!!!

When I saw their names on the press release last week, it seemed too good to be true but a tweet by AL-P (MSTRKRFT) confirmed the confirmation (ha!) they are using Coachella as their debut reunion show and I will be standing right there front and center!

It’s hard for me to precisely describe why DFA 1979 is my favorite band of all time, in fact I’m having a hard time putting it into words right now so the best description I can come up with is this: “Two genius’ on stage blowing your mind with a bass guitar, a synthesizer, a drum kit, and a voice that would even make Seal cry”.
Yeah see, I didn’t even really do them justice. Lucky for you, I happen to have a huge collection of live recordings from DFA 1979 so Ill let Jesse and Sebastien do what they do best.

I can go on for days about these guys, in fact, Im pretty sure I have enough material to dedicate all 81 days of the countdown to DFA but I digress and I promise Ill keep my DFA posts to a minimum. I mean there are other bands playing Coachella right?
