I'd love to see (in order of excitement):
Guns N' Roses
Flume
Ice Cube
Vanic
Jack U
ZHU
Major Lazer
Disclosure
Miike Snow
Thomas Jack
Ellie Goulding
M83
LCD Soundsystem (Not a big fan of their music but seeing them live might change that)
Zedd
Chainsmokers (although they SUCKED last time I saw them)
Lido
Sam Feldt
Calvin Harris
Seems like a pretty weak line up for non-edm though. Maybe I'm just out of touch.

The techno lineup is actually quite good (by techno I mean the actual sub-genre, not dance music as a whole). As a huge fan of the Drumcode label, I'd give anything to have someone from the label play here, let alone that entire group at one event. Been trying to see Adam Beyer for a while now. Even when I go to Europe in the summers I manage to miss him every time
Adam Beyer
Ida Engbeg
Marco Carolla
Nicole Moudaber
Nina Kravitz
Dubfire
Maceo Plex
John Digweed
For a tech fan like myself, that's a pretty stellar group and almost worth the admission. I'm much more a fan of the underground dance scene and I'd prefer this lineup compared to the lineup when I went back in 2014. But if you're a more mainstream big room EDM fan, you might not like this coachella lineup. I predict a lot of the kids will be whining and complaining (and they already are).
I've been listening to Parov Stelar recently and he's pretty entertaining. If you're a fan of electro house, you'll love him. He's got quite the jazzy/swing dance sound and it worth checking out.
I'll also be amazed if Guns n Roses even performs. I have an ongoing bet with my cousin that Axel doesn't even show up. My cousin bet he shows up, but is either too wasted to perform or they get canned halfway through their set.
