    The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival just released the lineup for its 2016 incarnation, to be held over two consecutive long weekends, April 15-17 and 22-24, on polo fields east of Palm Springs, Calif. Electronic/rock group LCD Soundsystem, a reunited Guns n' Roses, and heartthrob DJ Calvin Harris will headline the megafest. Sounds pretty straight, but queer — and queer-adjacent — acts definitely made it onto Coachella's vast roster. 

    Above: Out Aussie sensation Courtney Barnett will bring her modern Janis Joplin-style music to the desert on the festival's second day.
