Show Me The Body Actually Will Play Coachella

Samuel Eugene

After Show Me The Body denied that they were playing Coachella after being included on the lineup poster, it now appears that they will play the festival after all. "UPDATE: @coachella amended their offer. We will play on day three at 4pm for 25 minutes," they tweeted.

They're playing two shows in Los Angeles before the fest, one "in support of homeless LGBT youth" and another "in support of California climate advocacy efforts," and are donating the money they get from Coachella to these efforts, presumably as a reaction to the "revelation" that the owner of the corporation that owns Coachella donates a lot of money to anti-LGBT and climate change denier groups. Corporations are ... bad?! Who knew?

UPDATE: @coachella amended their offer. We will play on day three at 4pm for 25 minutes.
