Coachella Music & Arts Festival

Its worth every dollar and personally I’d recommend getting a place to stay and not trying to camp like the rest of the crazed fans because that becomes a bit overwhelming. Coachella is an experience unlike the usual concern and unlike a hippy art fest. its organized, creative, and the ability to trot around the area so to listen to different musicians every 15 minutes is like living in your iTunes application for a few days! Its great.

I’m planning on seeing Bjork, Interpol, Jarvis Cocker, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Arctic Monkeys, Silversun Pickups, Of Montreal, Tilly and the Wall, Tokyo Police Club, and Noisettes. Maybe also Faithless.

see the picture above… and note that I had to crop it in order for it to be “appropraite” for this page! Anyone interested in the original just let me know! I’ll share!

To see my Chili Peppers of course!
Nobody I know is willing or able to spend the money and I don’t want to go alone. =(

I love music and I am sucker of live concerts. I’d been in the States for a few months back then, and knew about this festival ‘cause of friend from work. The best thing I’ve ever done.

Got in loved with the festival and I am planning on making this an annual thing. I already been there once after my first time and got tickets already for this years 3-day marathon (2007) It’s going to be awesome.

It’s a really good experience.

No matter where I am and no matter what I do, I always must have time for Coachella. Every year is better than the last.

It was hot, it got crowded, I was smashed by Tool fans …
and it was sublime.

Coachella really is the greatest miserable experience I’ve ever enjoyed.

I went in 2003 – Great show! Radiohead, Pixies, The Cure, Flaming Lips, Kraftwerk, Muse, Cursive etc. Actually, it was 108F both days…

Highlights:
