Coachella 2008 Lineup Announced

The lineup for Coachella was announced today and as previously reported in the L.A. Times, heavy-hitting acts like the reunited U.K. group The Verve, The Raconteurs, Jack Johnson, My Morning Jacket and Rilo Kiley are on the list.

The "classic act" is not David Bowie or Prince as rumored but Pink Floyd's Roger Waters, who will be performing his legendary band's "Dark Side of the Moon" on the main stage.

Coachella will return to the Empire Polo Field in Indio, California April 25-27.
