Coachella: just add water

Pulp and iceberg
Jul 19, 2012 Updated Jul 23, 2012

Time to break out the cruisewear?...US Festival Coachella will be swapping the desert for the ocean this year.

The SS Coachella will set sail from Florida for a couple of 3-night cruises - to The Bahamas on December 16 and to Jamaica on December 19. On board will be the likes of Pulp, Hot Chip, Sleigh Bells, Black Lips and Grimes.

Memories of TV classics Gilligans Island and The Love Boat  have obviously coloured the public response, both to the watery gatherings and to the cost, which ranges between 500 and a whopping 9000 dollars.

The full line-up:

Pulp
Hot Chip
Yeasayer
Girl Talk
James Murphy (DJ Set)
Sleigh Bells
Simian Mobile Disco
Z-Trip
!!!
Warpaint
DJ Harvey
El-P
Killer Mike
Black Lips
The Gaslamp Killer
Grimes
Cloud Nothings
Jason Bentley
The Rapture (DJ Set)
Father John Misty
Tokimonsta
Alf Alpha
