Hot Snakes/Chromatics/Warpaint is a pretty brutal conflict for me on Saturday. To a lesser degree King Tuff/The Men/Moonface kinda sucks too. On Sunday for me the worst is Liars/Glass Candy/Dinosaur...
I saw La Sera at the Irenic last spring and the venue was ok. The sound was actually pretty good but it's just so weird milling about in a church drinking beer out of plastic cups. Think they had 2...
Growing up in Seattle I've been seeing those guys since they were playing in rec centers. You can't tell me that Spitting Venom off their last record wasn't a jam?
Just because a person's name is on there doesn't mean they haven't received one. The person who I sent mine to by the due date is listed there. A decent amount probably just haven't posted anything...
Google is your friend. http://store.bandmerch.com/coachella/
Just checked my mail and mine came yesterday, stoked to give it a proper listen later today. Also sent mine out on 5/23.
Agreed. I find Edward Sharpe corny, chock full of shtick, and ultimately devoid of substance; both recorded and live. You want a band playing good psych go check out the new Brian Jonestown Massacre....
I've listened to it a few times now and the verdict is still out, I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how I feel about this record which could end up being a good thing. His earlier full...
I guess I wasn't trying to say their sound was like AFI, just the repetitive "whoooahh oooohhhs" and "yeaaahhs" in the chorus of nearly every song. Like I was saying it's not a bad record by any...

I might not post much but (sadly) I read this board daily. To me Goat originally came off as an arrogant camping know it all but he seems to know his shit, does it up right, and has a blast. That and...
I'm with you. The earlier posts had me a bit bummed out before I even heard it but luckily the only ears I truly trust are my own. Besides the misstep of Hundred Miles Off The Walkmen have been...
I'll have to second this. I love Belgians, IPAs, and all other solid craft beers the majority of the time, but when you're camping or doing some day drinking in the hot sun I love me some CL Smooths....
Wow, just wait until you're out of school and have to deal with some real world "fuck it" problems. Christ what I wouldn't do to be back in those carefree days!
Great description. I saw London's Allo Darlin' on a whim last Sunday night and thought they were pretty solid live and they put on a fun show. Honestly there isn't a bad song on that record, like...
No worries Hoss, I'm not a flake. I may not have 5 digit postings but I religously read music sites and this message board (especially music lounge) daily, been a music nerd my whole life. I'm...
Yup, great description. While The Casbah is my home away from home for shows in SD, Soda Bar is still a cool venue. The beer selection and prices are way better than The Casbah. The sound is pretty...
Yeah, I just looked too. Looks like the San Diego date has been deleted off SOMA and M83's official site. Wonder if it got canceled or is being moved to another venue?
Not sure about the Ticketbastard presale password but on the official Beach House site they have a presale now for $25 total, $7 less than TM. Had to use Chrome or Firefox as it wouldn't work with...
Sounds fun! Info sent.
I've seen a bunch of shows there over the years and currently living in the Point Loma/OB area it's right down the street. Guess I've never been impressed by the cavernous sound and the general lack...
Crap, I hate it when you find out about a show after it already has happened. Unfortunately the smaller shows at places like Bar Pink and Tin Can unfortunately fly under my radar from time to time....
Shockingly it is called Seau's...
It's crazy everytime this happens to someone who seems to "have it all". Fame, money, and beloved by football fans and especially the community of San Diego....
ATT was pretty brutal this year, it was really hard to get texts and calls to go through to meet up with friends. After the 2010 clusterfuck I had great reception last year throughout the entire...
What weekend? They might have worked out the snags from Weekend 1 if you were at Weekend 2.
Andrew Bird @ Spreckels Sat. Aug 11th.
Presale going on right now at his website, I got a pair 3rd row: http://www.andrewbird.net/shows/
I completely agree, this show really helped with the post Coachella blues! I skipped her set at Coachella because I planned on going to this gig. I thought TuneYards were pretty good too but I wish...
I must have had shit luck then. I was in weird part of Lot 10 that was closer to Lot 7 I think and those lines were ridiculous. I guess it wasn't as bad when I walked to the vendor part of Lot 10.
I hate to say it but this year Weeked 1 was almost like the clusterfuck of 2010. Long lines everywhere from the showers and entrance and cell reception was shit again. Last year I thought all that...
From the glowing earlier posts it sounds like I definitely need to check out the new Spiritualized record. Downloaded the new Santigold and Ty Segall/White Fence yesterday and I have to surprisingly...
To each their own I guess but come on, not seeing any other bands on other stages for a complete day not to mention not eating or drinking until it's over is bizarre. Get real. I'm done being a Neggy...
If he's an actual DJ there shouldn't he have backstage hookups or a press pass at least?
I've been avoiding this board all week due to recovery and PCD and just ran through all the pages in this thread and am probably beating a dead horse but... I'm still blown away about the weirdness...
My future drunken offer would be for tomorrow morning, complete with complimentary hungover conversation.
Awesome! I'm terrified that after a few drinks tonight I'll have these ideas as well and will be making a similar post... minus the grass or ass.
So far the only stories I've heard here are of people being ridiculous, isn't this supposed to be a thread about fun? We walked around the campsite lots Sunday night after the acts were done and the...
This exactly. I've been avoiding reading the board all week but now that there is another Coachella going on that I'm not at, it's sucking bigtime. When you look forward to something for 11 months...
I wonder if they'll do a sunrise show like they did with Bon Iver back in 2009?
It was pretty killer, they open the gates at midnight Saturday and encourage people to bring sleeping bags,...
This. The vast majority of the parties are during festival hours.
So you're saying you'd rather be at one of these DJ'd pool parties than at the actual Coachella festival and missing actual artists? Wow, sounds like you need a reset of priorities. Living in...
People are messing with you because it seems you aren't reading any of the FAQs before posting. 99% of what you need to know is answered there.
Wrong. "Scenesters", "hipsters", or whatever you want to label them are complete posers. True live music fans will be at the festival. Leave the hotel pool parties for Lohan or Paris-esque wannabes....
This. The fun that starts after the actual festival ends is unreal.
Hate to tell you but that might be tough. Craigslist in SoCal right now is overloaded with sellers and people are starting to sell for less than face.
Through other posts about this I've read it just all depends on who you get searching and how busy they might be. We arrived around noon on Friday last year and they searched my car good. We look...
Weekend 1?
Wow, that Under The Covers Vol. 3 was ridiculously good. I'm not much of an electronic music fan in general but would like to check something out if there is a comparable artist to this at Coachella...
2010 was a nightmare with AT&T with texts showing up hours later. Last year though I had zero problems with texts and calls, maybe my phone had the force?
Bingo. I've gotten a free VIP wristband twice and it's nothing special. It's pretty darn far from the main stage and not worth the $ for just some different food and shade. Also not sure what you...
