Goldenvoice Announces Coachella Lineup, Offers Tickets on Layaway

This morning, Goldenvoice announced its lineup for the 2009 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, which will take to the Empire Polo Field in Indio, California, from April 17 to 19. Some of the bands taking top billing this year include the Cure, Morrissey, Paul McCartney, and the Killers. In a sign of the financial times, Goldenvoice will—for the first time—offer its steep ticket packages ($269 for the three-day pass) and its camping passes on a layway plan, with consumers having the option of paying either 50 percent down or in three installments.
