Coachella Lineup is Out: Chili Peppers, Phoenix

The Rolling Stones are out and The Stone Roses are in. That's the word from the producers of the annual Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival, which on Thursday night released the much anticipated lineup for the Indio festival's 2013 edition.

The festival, which typically draws 20 percent of its audience from San Diego County, will run April 12-14 and April 19-21, with the same lineup appearing both weekends. The Stone Roses will headline on April 12 and April 19, while Phoenix will headline April 13 and April 20 and Red Hot Chili Peppers headline April 14 and April 21. (See the bottom of this article for the complete, day-by-day lineup.)

Other major acts set to appear include -- on April 12 and 19 -- Blur, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Modest Mouse and Lou Reed (who, at 70, joins Detroit troubadour Rodriguez as this year's oldest Coachella performer).

The April 13 and April 20 festival lineup also features the XX (which performed here last year at SOMA), the reunited Postal Service, Iceland's Sigur Ros, New Order, Hot Chip, Grizzly Bear and The 2 Bears.

Joining the Red Hot Chili Peppers, figuratively, not literally, on April 14 and April 21 will be Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (who perform at Humphrey's Concerts by the Bay in between the two Coachella weekends), Vampire Weekend, Social Distortion and Wu-Tang Clan.

In lieu of a Smiths' reunion, former Smiths' guitarist Johnny Marr will perform with his new band April 12 and April 19.

Tickets for both weekends go on sale Jan. 29 at 10 a.m. via the Coachella web site (which, as of this writing, is very difficult to access, no doubt because of a fan overload). In a new twist, festival passes for the first weekend must be bought with either a shuttle pass or a car camping pass.

Rumors that the Rolling Stones would perform at this year's edition were sparked last month, when the band's official app listed an April 12 Indio performance. Those rumors, while entertaining, were unfounded, as were the rumors that David Bowie and Justin Bieber would also be on the bill. Of course, Coachella does sometime beef up the bill with late additions, so you never know who else might appear.

Last year's Coachella festival, the first to be extended from one weekend to two, was a near-instant sell-out. It was headlined by Radiohead, The Black Keys and hip-hop superstars Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, who were joined by Eminem and a holograph of deceased rapper Tupac Shakur.
