This is the exact kind of mega-headliner that the festival needed from the very beginning. It certainly makes up for Jack Johnson. Now with Prince attached to Portishead, Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin (another great last minute addition), The Verve, Spiritualized, My Morning Jacket, The Breeders and The Raconteurs, the festival seems more grandiose.
With the festival just over a month away, this is about the same time that Coachella announced that Madonna was being added to the 2006 line-up. She was billed as "Performing in the Dance Tent" and it was made clear that it would be a mini-set. She was brought in because the festival hadn't been selling as well as they had hoped it would with Depeche Mode headlining. I wonder how bad this year was selling for them to shell out for Prince?
I'm hoping he does a full set on the main stage. No word yet about what day or stage he'll be performing on. ........

This rumor has been around since January. It is nothing but a rumor. The Cochella people said "This is absolutely not true". They could use him though. He blows away every act they have playing there.

I’m sure that I’m the only normal person here. Why would I think so? Because no one normal would have written anything like posts below on this kind of website.
