Coachella pays its artists alright. Some acts reportedly costing millions over the years. Either way, they pay their artists and often put a clause in their contract that they can't play near where Coachella is for so long. I am not sure if that's on an artist-to-artists basis or if it's standard in all their contracts though. But if the artist does have the clause, don't expect to see 'em in any club in SoCal anytime soon. |
I always thought it was across the board, can't play within 100 miles within a month or something? |

FAIL - in my opinion at least.

Not necessarily true. ZOE is playing on Saturday at Coachella, and they're also playing at the Glasshouse in Pomona on Monday.
In the past, Cafe Tacuba has the done the same.
If anything, the clause might just be for the headliners. |

the standard Coachella contract negotiation excludes SoCal shows within a specific time period right before and after... but exceptions can always be negotiated...
having said that you typically won't see a big name act or dj play LA right around Coachella due to that restriction.... but they can play SF or Vegas... |

That's quite an exaggeration. There's a big difference between a rave in the Mojave desert on BLM land and a commercial event held on a polo field in Coachella.
Video of a REAL desert rave back in '97 - '98, a few years before the first Coachella Music Festival:

| I went to a rave at the Polo Fields before. It was way back when there weren't any houses around. It was literary in the middle of nowhere. |

It started as a rave in the desert, and only in the past 5-6 years or so (maybe more) strayed away from dance music and into more indie rock/mainstream. |
Yeah, the first Coachella was headlined by those big rave acts Rage Against the Machine, Beck & Tool.
Oh, wait... |

Well, than here's another exception. JAY-Z is performing at the Staples Center on March 26. That's about 2 1/2 weeks before Coachella. |

Probably because Jay-Z won't be the main headliner for Friday night. It has happened in the past; when they announce the second batch of performers they've bumped certain main headliners down one or two pegs. I've had a feeling that they'll bump him since I first saw his name on the lineup. |
