East Coast Coachella Festival coming in August

GoldenVoice, the presenters of the annual Coachella music festival in California, will be staging an East Coast version of Coachella in August.
Quote:
Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that the Coachella Music Festival is heading east this year!
"In addition having the festival outside of Palm Springs, like they do every year, this year they're mounting an east coast version of Coachella in New York or possibly New Jersey," an insider tells us.
The East coast version is expected to be a few months after the Cali affair. "It should be in August," we're told.
And a little birdie whispered in my ear that none other than Radiohead can be expected to headline...

It would take every smiley layered on top of one another, in a 3D projection as large as the Statue of Liberty to convey my excitement.

I know but can't tell. The person who tells me these things knows I post about them, and he doesn't mind me saying some things but does mind me saying others, because then it spreads around the internets. I'll say that I've seen a show there before and the scenery will be most beautiful.

So Billboard just posted the location so I guess I can too: The event will be at Liberty State Park. With the Statue of Liberty behind the crowd, and the NYC skyline behind the stage. First place I ever saw Radiohead.
The Queen Mary cruise liner is larger than the Statue of Liberty. How weird:

At least it's an island off of NJ, easily accessible by ferries that leave from downtown Manhattan (Battery Park).

Still though, you are going to get a bunch of people coming from New Jersey. Too bad they aren't gonna have it in upstate NY or somewhere in CT.

If it was in Upstate... well holy fuck I can't even begin to describe how excited that would have made me. NYC/Jersey is cool enough though, not too long of a drive at all.

While it's possible, I doubt it. According to Bjork, when I saw her in Vegas, that was her last North American show for quite awhile. Things change though.
All I know is I will be pissed if Radiohead does Coachella east, but not west. Looks like it might be that way though. Radiohead is really fucking over their fans in the southwest. No stops in Az, Ut, NM or CO. Sure there are some in cali, but that automatically doubles, triples or more the cost for fans in AZ/UT, and worse for those in CO/NM.

Also, being at a state park = pigs everywhere. And not the fun, mud-loving kind either.

There have been tons of pigs and security at every coachella, so the park won't change that.
Actually coachella in liberty state park sounds superior to coachella on a polo field in the middle of the desert if you ask me.

If it even happens, the local community is very against that festival.

I fucking hate when locals are against fests. It's what got Hellfest kicked out of Syracuse, and ultimately lead to the demise of the (shitty in hindsight) Syracuse scene and Hellfest (which ruled.)

Actually yeah it will affect it. On government property some of the laws/regulations for law enforcement are different/looser. Mainly in what the land owner (or lessee, by proxy) can dictate in terms of police presence.
