I haven't seen the Knife (I would pass on the opportunity to do so), but I'm willing to bet they'll end up at either Wavefront, Lolla, EDC, North Coast, or Spring Awakening.
You obviously don't know shit about The Knife. This will be their only festival date. Their North American tour will consist of a handful of dates around Coachella and then we will have to wait another 8 years to see them again.

Really hate to agree with this, but it's true. Did Fever Ray do any North American shows, besides Coachella, in 2010? I def won't be missing this set

I don't, and I don't claim to. I'm still willing to bet they have a Chicago stop of some sort.

Nope. I believe that was the only 2010 show. She did a brief tour of maybe 5 or so NA cities in 2009 and claimed that was the end of touring for Fever Ray. Coachella coaxed her out of retirement, and she did a couple of European shows in the summer before fully retiring Fever Ray.
If I'm not mistaken, the 2006 Knife tour consisted of around 3-4 NA dates. I would not expect anything to bring them back for another leg in NA after the dates around Coachella.
I'm really glad I saw that Fever Ray show. I don't generally think back and rate shows, but if I did, that show would easily be in the top five. The Knife is one of the bands I'm most looking forward to seeing this time around. Is it pretty concrete that they'll play the main stage? I would prefer to see them in one of the tents
I think they're guaranteed to play the main with that billing. I would have thought Outdoor or possibly Mojave, but I don't think there has ever been a #2 that didn't play the main stage. I'm still a little worried about what the show will look like. This will not be the amazing atmospheric spectacle that Fever Ray was.
Over 24 hours after announcement, and I'm still freaking out about The Replacements. Freaking. The. Fuck. Out.
This is how I feel, but about the Knife. Were you there in 2011 for the freak show/spectacle that was Animal Collective on the main stage? It was one of my favorite Coachella experiences to date. I think this will surpass it as one of the more bizarre - and I mean bizarre in the best way possible - shows to ever grace the main stage. I want them to push the boundaries as far as humanly possible.
Yeah, Broken Bells is very possibly in my top 5 acts on the lineup. What's nice is it sounds like Governor's Ball is picking up some Coach acts (Outkast, Broken Bells), so if conflicts suck that badly, I may have opportunity to catch certain acts 2 months later in my backyard.

2014 will be my first Coachella. It's one of those bucket lists that I've needed to knock off forever. I'm hoping I get that opportunity to see the faces during The Knife.
Honestly, I'm bummed that Friday is so stacked, because I could easily stay at the main stage for Replacements -> the Knife -> Outkast (if recent tradition holds up and that's how the lineup is scheduled), which means I'd probably miss some awesomeness elsewhere. I'm actually really worried about having to miss Broken Bells, which would be a bummer because I really want to see that show.
Friday slays me. I've never spent all day at a main stage but if that were the case, I will. That day is easily the best, followed by Sunday, imo. Saturday is a little light for my tastes but I'm sure I'll keep myself occupied. I'm already digging through the names I don't know.
Watching full set, and not staying at the same stage all day, how many shows can you see, just a general idea. And are main stage sets all somewhat full length shows? Or shortened down from what the act would normally play?
^^ This. Please To Meet Me is also another you should know.
Oh, and while I hate greatest hits albums, there is a great one on Spotify. All For Nothing/Nothing For All. Looking at those shows they played, it's all on there.
I am going to go out on a limb and say that the Coachella Outkast show >>>>>> other Outkast shows. I really just remember Wu-Tang last year, where they all came out and killed it, brought the whole orchestra, and people were assuming it would be like that elsewhere, and then it wasn't. I think the high profile of the festival, plus the amount of artists/celebs who attend, and the fact that it's right near LA make it ripe for a massive blowout. I wouldn't be surprised if there are several collaborations. Hell, there's already that article where Future was talking about getting on stage, so that's where I see things.
Any Atlanta show will be special as well. When Big Boi played CounterPoint he had a lot of his family and friends there and a lot of people came out from Atlanta just to see him. He put a lot into it. I would imagine an Outkast show at CounterPoint or in Atlanta would be that way too, but even more so.

Most sets are around 50 minutes, stage closers generally get an hour-fiften or so. The earlier in the day, the shorter the set, usually. You can see a ton of shows depending on conflicts.

Bitter sweet I suppose. Ideal for someone who lives in a land where maybe 10 acts on the line up would come within 500km of my home.
