A totally unofficial, yet highly probable, partial line-up for Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2005 is running rampant on the Internet.
Festival organizer Goldenvoice says "nothing has been confirmed" but that's not going to keep fans from getting excited about who might be coming to Empire Polo Field in Indio, Calif., this spring.
There are plenty of hot acts on the list and a number of surprises, including David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails, and Coldplay.
And it wouldn't be Coachella without a bevy of buzz bands. The 2005 edition that's being circulated includes recent Shortlist Prize winner TV On The Radio, as well as Dogs Die In Hot Cars, Death From Above 1979, and Iron and Wine.

April 30
David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails, Coldplay, PJ Harvey, Interpol, The Faint, Franz Ferdinand, Polyphonic Spree, Boards of Canada, TV On the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Squarepusher, Clinic, French Kicks, Secret Machines, Phoenix, Beep Beep, Dogs Die In Hot Cars, Death From Above 1979, and The Helio Sequence
