Best party of the weekend. I was all in for Blur, and Foals are my favorite band right now, but there was no doubt J5 were gonna tear it up. Glad I got two weekends and a Foals show in SD to do it...

Star (blue band) are "Guests" of the festival (more very important than VIPs).

Echoing some of the replies here, I left the Faint early to head over to Wu Tang, and stopped for a bit because Tesla Girls was sounding so good. They introduced the next song (Metroland?) with...

I would change nothing except ban drinks going in. Wasters spilling water and chucking empty bottles on the hardwood was my only complaint. Lines were fine/comparable to the HDome and nobody is...

fuckin California squadron comin through

US leg of their 2012 tour will be in October, which makes it less likely they're back in the spring (but not impossible, I guess):

The Presets 2012 Tour Dates:
09/29 – Brisbane, AU @ Parklife...

The "You will likely not be directed to the purchase page prior to sell out." is bullshit. Also, the standby page is bullshit... you're not in a queue, and it doesn't take people in order, it's just...

Looks like DJ sets for both west coast shows on this tour (Avalon in LA and Mezzanine in SF).

FYF last year was my first chance seeing them live. They reawakened a part of my brain that age and...

* Funny girl in an Alpha Chi Something sweatshirt at the main stage weekend 1 (before Justice maybe?) was just rambling with her friends about nonsense and all I heard was:

"Kirby Puckett!!!...

By Sunday on Weekend 2 the grass had pretty much had it, especially in the Sahara (hard to spot any green left).

Mainstage and Outdoor seems like they had sign-language interpreters pretty much...

6512

Kaiser Chiefs vs. Buzzcocks
Santigold vs. Seun Kuti
and DJ Shadow vs. Modeselektor

would probably make me upset if I weren't going both weekends.

Made my trade, so this is closed. Thanks. See you in the tents.

I have two Weekend #2 Tennis Garden line Shuttle Passes to trade.

I'm looking for one Weekend #1 Tennis Garden line Shuttle Pass.

I'd prefer to swap in person and I'm in San Diego, but willing...

All about it

What is that wrapped around her upper arm? Is that to expose a vein for intravenous injection of hard drugs? I remember about that from DARE classes.

Everybody who ended Sunday on the Trent-Rat-Left-Presets dance party scored full points, and anybody who even got to see part of the Presets to close it out went home happy.

I got a high five from a random girl when she saw me putting my gum back into the wrapper and putting it in my pocket to throw away later. She said something about my mother, but in a complimentary...

That's Jess Mills (http://jessmills.co.uk/), and even though she's not the original vocalist for Original, she's OG.

and the Presets were so obviously the best way to end the festival that I even saw Kanye dancing in there at one point because HE knew to skip his own show for them.

Leftfield should have been given the Sahara soundsystem to let rip and start an earthquake of bass, but I'm happy they got dissed because Trentemøller -> Ratatat -> Leftfield -> the Presets in the...

I wish I'd got a better shot of it from the ferris wheel, but her tent was busted open, overflowing, and spilling out the everyone happy vibe wickedy wicked wick wic bang!

don't quote me 100% on the order:

LEFTFIELD
Song of Life
Storm 3000
Black Flute
Original
Afro-Left
Afrika Shox
Space Shanty

I convinced my friends to wait for a bit after Sander Kleinenberg to watch a minute of Joachim Garraud's keytar comedy routine. He did not disappoint. The one-finger Daft Punk medley was a highlight,...

Had a great time this year, and the security & other staff were on their game and did a top job, but the one complaint was the pointless pedestrian routes.

There is no justifiable reason at all...

I prefer 15 / 215 / 60 / 10

It's not much different, time-wise, and going through the windmills (especially on the way back) beats the valley view, for me. Plus, winding through the mountains...

"Borderline riot situation?!?" Wait until the merch tent runs out of Skrillex lunchboxes, then talk to me about borderline riot situations.

The map legend says you can "Fill any empty container with free drinking water in any of our four Hydration Centers." Nice one, Coachella.

I'm gonna wear a spiderman face mask, but only so people with think I'm Bob Rifo and I can get back stage.

Just look the part... like putting little flags on your limousine so people know you're the goddamn Ambassador to Morocco and won't mess with your car.

This seems to be a recurring theme on this message board: cynical regulars complaining that oblivious newcomers are too stupid to have figured this out.

Maybe it would be a good idea if the...

You're in luck, since their inevitable vanishing act from popularity/public consciousness should be starting any time now.

Pure Filth won't be in that dome, surely. That's the dome of safety and recuperation that normally sits near the entrance (you can see it in PDW's photo of the grounds from 2009, near the top of the...

Uh oh.... when I got mine it was addressed to Terry Lewis, so I think I got your friend's by mistake.

I cannot print them; I can smile while I look at them, though.
These people can print them:

I prefer the Heineken Dome as a cool off spot during the heat of the day. It's completely sealed in with A/C. However, it is an alcohol area, so I don't know for sure, but I suspect they wouldn't...

Will I be permitted inside the 1-mile perimeter after I get my refund?

PIL's crowd started pitiful and got smaller as soon as it was obvious they were not gonna let up on no-holds-barred eardrum-scraping set of their noisiest classics. The (marginally) tuneful "hits"...

If you're going by area, it's Kings of Leon
If you're going by length, it's Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears
If you're going by popularity, it's probably MEN (men are pretty popular, like almost...

How much would it cost me to book Daft Punk to play at my house?

I could set them up. I'll get everybody's PA, and put all the furniture in the garage. Sarah's girlfriend said she'll work the door.

My introduction to the wonderful & frightening world of Coachella was witnessing the tragic defeat of the Naked Wizard by evil Police taser magic as we were headed to the Sahara on Friday 2009 to...

!!! seems unusually low -- maybe a query oddity due to their "name"? or do they not have anything available on last.fm?

I think either way is possible: BAD in either the PiL spot or Specials spot from Friday last year, but I think it's better the way you have it now.

Empire of the Sun would be a great Outdoor...

Maybe Yelle takes Wire's spot in the Mojave, either before or after Gogol Bordello (that's what they had in '08), and it wouldn't surprise me to see Wire closing the Gobi (they won't be a big draw,...
