Jimmy Kimmel Tricks Coachella Attendees into Raving About Bands That Don't Exist: VIDEO

"Did you know that Coachella is actually the American Indian word for dumb white guy?"

Heard of Doctor Slo-Mo and the GI Clinic, Shorty Jizzle and the Plumber Cracks, The Obesity Epidemic, Get the F**k Out of My Pool, or The Chelsea Clintons?

These Coachella attendees have, and they're very big fans.

Tupac Back from Dead to Play Coachella, as Hologram: VIDEO

Sixteen years after his death, Tupac Shakur appeared on stage Sunday night with Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre at the Coachella Festival in Indio, California to perform a set — as a realistic hologram.

THR:

Among the comments registered in the moments after: “i can't even begin to imagine what this Tupac hologram is doing to all the people at Coachella that have been on acid for 3 days straight,” wrote @JordanETID

Tweeted @KirillWasHere: "Next year Coachella should just have a HOLOGRAM TENT featuring all the acts that we wish we got to see live...," while @Swagstro offered this thought: "I wonder how many rappers retired from seeing the Tupac hologram on COACHELLA."

Still, some in the crowd found it unsettling. "Was completely freaked out by the Tupac hologram and I'm fairly certain I was one of five people out of 100,000 not on drugs," tweeted @molly_knight.

Coachella Announces 2012 Line-Up

Coachella's 2012 line-up was announced on its Facebook page today. Radiohead, The Black Keys, and Dr. Dre & Snoop dogg will headline the festival, which takes place over the weekends of April 13-15 and a repeat on April 20-22.

Billboard notes:

Coachella is known for its reunions, and this year's festival will coax a number of acts out of hiding: it will feature an appearance by Neutral Milk Hotel's Jeff Mangum, marking the first Southland appearance of the previously hermetic indie musician's current tour, as well as punk icons Refused and At the Drive-In, which announced its reformation on Twitter earlier on Monday. '90s alt-rockers Mazzy Star, who surprised fans with new recordings late last year, will perform on the festival's first day -- as will the resurgent Jarvis Cocker-led British act Pulp.
