hmmmm, maybe its just me, but i think xiu xiu's music is better suited for a really intimate setting. i think that if they were to play at the festival, a lot of that intimacy would be lost. dont get me wrong, i think it would be awesome for them to get the publicity from the festival, and turn on some potential fans - but judging from when jamie came to play here in az; the venue was really tiny, and it was really neat to be a couple feet away from him.

Oh I'll agree on the intimacy point. . . . coachella has probably over 5 stages, some inside tents, others outside and a little bigger. Xiu Xiu would definitely develop a crazy word of mouth buzz down there. ie: "(did you see that one band with all the weird instruments and the guy who wants to kill himself?)"
ha. but don't get me wrong, nothing is better than a small sweaty venue and jamie up close and intense.
