After festival bosses brought a reunited Stoogesto the line up in 2003 and helped get the Pixies back together for their 2004 show, Coachella 2005 will follow the tradition of bringing back reformed groups by hosting Bauhaus and Cocteau Twins in this year’s line-up.
"With the Cocteau Twins - I just kept persevering," festival promoter Paul Tollett told NME.COM. "The same guy who helped me with Pixies, helped me with that one. We just want to have all different types [of artists]. We’re not looking for bands that haven’t been around necessarily, just different types of music that add up."
The official Coachella line-up is :
Saturday April 30
Sunday May 1st
