This is the first time the Cocteau Twins have performed live since 1996, and their first collaborative effort since disbanding in 1998.

It is in Indio, California each year. The link is working for me, try it again. Its two days of some of the best modern music. The styles vary for sure, but always a fantastic line-up, usually the best and biggest names for a fest this side of the Atlantic. In this case they got at least 2 bands to get back together for just this show. I wouldn't be suprised if it was part of the Dinosaur Jr. reunion shows.
