Still more than a half-year away and Coachella has already unveiled the dates for their 2009 festival. The three-day event will take place April 17-19, two weeks earlier than this year’s festival. The line-up for the event, which will once again take place at the Empire Polo Field in Indio, California, will be announced early next year. Coachella 2008 saw performances by Jack Johnson, Prince, Death Cab For Cutie, MGMT and many more.
