For all you poor unfortunate souls that won’t be a part of the desert musical madness that we like to call Coachella, don’t cry, dry your eye. Although the fun begins April 16, 2010 at the Empire Polo Fields in Indio, Calif., there’s still a good amount of Coachella bands playing before, during and after the event.
