    That's actually how I hear it pronounced.

    I meant to comment on this earlier, that "COACH-ella" is one pronounciation I've never heard, and yet that would seem to be the most obvious one. My whole life I heard the O and the A pronounced separately, thereby adding a fourth syllable. But when the big music festival started, I think for many people that may have been the first time they ever heard the name and with that came a new pronunciation, but I have to defer to OC Rich here because he lived in area, whereas I was only an occasional visitor, so he would know better than me.
