Yeah, there can't be anyone who thinks that.

Ha. I've always felt that way. I don't understand that song. I've tried and tried.

If I could go this year, the Saturday times in particular would annoy me. Seems way too backloaded. I don't understand having Phoenix, Sigur Ros, AND New Order playing at the same time. Have a...

I've been to 5 Coachellas (2004-2007, 2011), and I almost certainly won't be able to make it this year. There have certainly been years where I've looked at the lineup and be pretty enthused, but I...

I've never been one for just sticking my head in the sand. I'm sure either weekend will be fun, but it's diluted. Period.

HATE this idea at this moment. I will keep an open mind, but right now, I hate it.

Coachella is special because of all the little "you had to be there" moments, the feeling that everyone,...

Felt like I was watching a concert on PBS, but they were good.

It was a really fun set, especially if you were, you know, actually in the tent. I mean, nothing sounds good outside the tent...

I saw a bunch of people put this in their Top 5 (me included). ...

1. Arcade Fire - Wake Up
2. Cut Copy - Lights And Music
3. Elbow - One Day Like This
4. Empire of the Sun - We Are The People
5. Robyn - The Girl And The Robot (this was a big surprise for me;...

Great set. One of my Top 5. I do hope the next album shows some kind of musical progression, though. I don't think you can make an entire career off this stuff. It's not immediately obvious to me...

Odd Future was depressingly bad for the first song and a half. We got out of there as fast as humanly possible, but it took me like an hour to recover. I was amped for a big Coachella moment, and...

I think I did 5 or 6 straight sets in the Mojave on Friday, and was there about half the time on Saturday. I was flying home on Sunday, so can't really comment on the Mojave's Sunday. But...

I don't have much to add, but just wanted to throw in my own thank you. This was my 5th Coachella. I went from 2004-2007 and then this year, and it was definitely the smoothest experience I've had....

I caught this show from about one third of the way back, and from where I was, it was just terrible. My sister was super hyped about this show. But Sandwiches was terrible, and whatever came next...

Great set.

I promised myself I would post this one photo I took. Look, I'm okay with girls going up on someone's shoulders for ONE song, because they're girls, and they're often shorter than us...

My #1 set of the weekend, for all the above mentioned reasons.

TPOBPAH seemed like a really nice group of people...like, almost too nice. It detracts a bit from their stage presence. But I thought this was a nice set that picked up steam after a bit of a slow...

Caveat: had to fly home on Sunday

1. Cut Copy - most enthusiastic crowd I saw all weekend; pure fun
2. Empire of the Sun - maybe the most unique set I saw all weekend; thought they could have...

I thought Sleigh Bells was great. Up until that point things had been fun but not necessarily awesome. Cut Copy, Robyn, Chem Brothers...all awesome. Actually, Cut Copy may have been the biggest...

Coachella is where I learned that I'm allergic to horses. I could barely breathe on the 2nd day way back in 2004 and had to leave about halfway through the day. Camping was obviously a mistake. ...

I'm a Coachella vet from 2004-2007. Some true old timers might even remember me on this board. Haven't been the last few years, but my sister and I were thinking about making one trip back this...

I'm having trouble deciding if you're trolling or just that obnoxious. I heard zero buzz about Swedish House Mafia this past week, so it couldn't have been that amazing. I didn't see either act, so...

Just the DJ. You didn't miss anything. The Presets were indeed awesome. I went from having a passing familiarity with them to being a big fan.

Alright, I'm just gonna go ahead and say it...The Prodigy's performance tonight pretty much sucked. They came out nearly half an hour late, played less than an hour, and when they did play the bass...

What time is the Underworld set supposed to start?

I think I'm gonna go on Saturday, mostly just for Underworld. Looking forward to it.

I saw on the Ultra Thread where you work. I usually go to the one of the other two Starbucks on Lincoln, but from now on I'm going to yours, if only for your sticker machine.

I wish you Starbucks people would stop shouting my order to the barista standing like 5 feet from you. I don't need the whole damn store to know what I'm drinking. Thanks.

My biggest complaint with Studio A is they have some serious dickheads working the door. The sheer rudeness on my way in to Girl Talk a couple weeks ago was enough to make me consider never going...

Happy Birthday! I did not know yours was so close to mine. Pretty special couple of days, if you ask me.

Thanks again!

Let's make this a monthly tradition! OK, let's not.

Going to the Girl Talk show at Studio A tonight with a bunch of friends who have no idea who the hell Girl Talk is. Should be...

HAHAHA.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Wait a minute. My profile already says my B-day is Feb. 02. Did I miss a month?

Sweet pictures and thanks for the sentiments. Let's do this again on February 2nd, when it's my actual birthday! Not sure how I got bumped to January, but it probably involves inaccurate and/or...

"Hit The Plane Down" on Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain

That's, like, one of my least favorite songs ever.

Chicken = moron. That was one of the most ridiculous Survivor conversations ever...the one between him and Peh Gee. Is Peh Gee some kind of Chinese bastardization of Peggy? I hope not. If it is,...

I can probably make this work if it's the last weekend in April. If it's the first weekend in May, I would probably have to disappear some people, but I suppose I could make that work, too.

EDIT:...

Jesus. I have to figure out a way to open a hole in my schedule so I can go to this.

Let's just say Bang made me appreciate Coachella so much more. If you want to remain satisfied with Bang, never go to Coachella.

I'll go if they get Bjork. Hear that, Bang organizers? If you...

I don't really know for sure, but I think that's what I heard. I left for Daft too.

Yay Survivor. Looks like there are more white people than the last couple seasons. Not sure that's a good thing.

I don't know. Going to a festival should be viewed as doing community service. Anyway, in the last couple years--festivals aside--the scene down here has gotten quite a bit better. It still sucks,...

Shit, they can't even spell "coming" correctly on their front page. They spelled it "comming". It's this kind of attention to detail that makes this festival a winner.

I live just across the bay from this festival, but it was so terribly put together last year that I won't go unless the lineup is ridiculous.

Hey, is the opening theme music for Pardon The Interruption supposed to sound a lot like "Cut Your Hair"? Or is that just a coincidence?

Also, back on point, I'm getting my hair cut next Thursday.

I didn't click on that link, but I do need a haircut.

To clarify: I'm not saying he's not a scumbag. He's just not a scumbag on account of his decision to go back on the deal. I don't think anyone should be asked to essentially commit Survivor...

I look at Surivor as a game, and anything you do in it is fair play. His decision had consequences--meaning he had absolutely no chance of winning--but I don't think it makes him a scumbag.

You...

I like Dreamz. You can't ask a man to commit Survivor suicide. They should've all just agreed to cut out Cassandra.

Well, she's clearly delusional. Alex really thinks he's hot shit, though, so I guess that makes him delusional too.
