Coachella Set Times, Lineup Announced [PHOTOS]: Performances Set For 2013 Music Festival

Let the overlap complaints commence! Coachella 2013 has revealed its set times for the first weekend of the Indio, Calif. festival/juggernaut.  I've compiled a handy list of overlaps so that Coachella festivalgoers aren't surprised that they "missed X cuz I was busy watching Y."

FRIDAY

  The unfortunate choices start early with an indie darling showdown between Lord Huron (1-1:40, Mojave stage) and  The Neighbourhood (1:25-2:05, Outdoor Theatre), before carrying on  throughout the day with several difficult decisions.

Overlaps That Will Be Decided By Which Genre You Prefer: Aesop Rock (3:25-4:10, Outdoor Theatre) and Jake Bugg (3:05-3:50, Mojave).

Canadian Civil War: Japandroids, Metric and Alt-J's sets all overlap around the 5 o' clock hour.

Clusterf&#ks Of DOOM:

 Modest Mouse-Local Natives-Jello Biafra

Blur-Band Of Horses- Purity Ring

The Stone Roses- Tegan and Sara-Earl Sweatshirt- How To Destroy Angels- Bassnectar in the late shows.

SATURDAY

Day 2 keeps it relatively overlap free for the first half of the day, before dropping some seriously touch choices on the back 9

Overlaps That Will Be Decided By Which Genre You Prefer:  Allen Stone- Dropkick Murphys- 2 Chainz; the Postal Sevice- Descendents

Breakbeat Beatdown: Action Bronson- Birdy Nam Nam; Danny Brown-Baauer

Clusterf&#ks Of DOOM:

El P- Violent Femmes - Major Lazer

Grizzly Bear- Yeasayer- Hot Chip

The xx- Two Door Cinema Club- Janelle Monae- Franz Ferdinand

Phoenix- New Order

 SUNDAY

Sunday has almost no notable overlaps until the late afternoon, when the ish gets real. Wu-Tang Clan and the Red Hot Chili Peppers have almost no competition at their late shows, oddly enough.

Overlaps That Will Be Decided By Which Genre You Prefer: La Roux-Vampire Weekend- Father John Misty- Hardwell

Tanlines-Dinosaur Jr.- Social Distortion

Battle of the 1s and 2s: James Blake-Paul Oakenfold

Clusterf&#ks Of DOOM: Other than the previously mentioned 4-way, there aren't any. If you have trouble deciding between Wu-Tang and Roni Size & Dynamite MC, you don't deserve to attend.

That's it. A handy primer of all of the difficult decisions that you will have to make at Coachella (music-wise, anyway). Check out the full listing of Coachella set times here and let me know if I missed any in the comments.

(P.S. Is anyone else weirded out by the way Coachella's schedules are written? Bottom to top? Who reads like that? It took my longer than I'd care to admit to figure out what was going on.)
