I would enjoy seeing the Decemberists, but Levi doesn't like them and I will probably have other chances to see them. I'm open to being pleasantly surprised by any of the other bands, well, except the one dude I saw last year who has nothing going for him besides his uncanny ability to imitate Johnny Cash (I feel about that as I do about Beatles impersonators). So, folks, let me know if you know which of these artists might pleasantly surprise me. In the meantime, I'll be right here envying the Coachella lineup.
