Really? I mean the dome was small, but it wasnt overcrowded because there were alot of conflicts. I feel like if you stood in the center of that stage the sound was phenomenal. Of course the outdoor...
Saw Beardyman 1st weekend and Dam-Funk 2nd. I liked Dam-Funks set more THIS time. As I said before, if you get a chance to see a real, nighttime Beardyman dance set then take it. In the Pure Filth...
The Three O'Clcok were my favorite early act.
Dam-Funk was probably my second favorite, bringing Ariel Pink out was unexpected and kinda wierd though.
Beardyman was good, but we saw him under...
Bikes have worked brilliantly for me for both Outside Lands and Fun Fun Fun. almost for sure going to do it again, though a friend no moved to Austin that I will be staying with so it depends on how...
Sorry Kreutz, wish you could join us. This may be the best overall linup Twilight has ever had. All for $5, I don't know how they keep doing it.
Lucky: Bothchella
Any complaints are just 1st world problems and practically meaningless.
That is a great idea actually. I never have to deal with dust of this magnitude and get by when allergies do hit with claritin, Sudafed or if its gnarly, Afrin. Cleansing prophylactically sounds like...
I spent the least amount of time in the Do Lab ever this year. Mainly due to there being very few acts I was interested in. The 1st weekened I thought they weren't even spraying water until I saw...
Everyday both weekends (I think). Sure there are occasional trainwrecks, but overall they are just port-a-potties. I don't understand the fear. Californians are such pansies sometimes.
Yes the weekend 1 duststorm got me on Monday, mostly recovered by Weekend 2, but then it slightly returned after that. Feeling mostly normal again now, just a residual, unproductive cough.
We were up front and it was way to load and popping. We moved back to the soundstage after ~3 songs. Either because of that or because they tweaked the sound, the rest of the set ended up sounding...
Dillon Francis was terrible. The guy is a joke, using desperate ploys, anything for attention. Don't ask me why I was there.
In no particular order.
Janelle Monae
Moby
Spiritualized
The Make-Up
Dead Can Dance
HM: Four Tet, Tame Impala, Hot Chip, Prydz, Divine Fits
Although I had a blast at Moby 1st weekend, in fact hge is probably in the top 5 for me this year, I should have gone to Mark Farina weekend 2. Missed him the 2 chances I have had now. I had fun at...
Glad you and Jonathan made it over. Such a positive way to close out Bothchella. I think it is one of my top 3 for wither weekend. Prydz was really nice weekend 1. Glad we got to do both, and even...
I liked the small capacity. I got there ten minutes early for the bigger acts I wanted to see full sets of, Four Tet, Maya Jane Coles, and Jamie XX and had no problem getting in before they even...
What a performer! She is a dynamo. I was excited to see her, but she blew my expectations away. Class act for sure and one of the highlights of Coachella.
My favorite Coachella moment of all time came when Ian was standing on the rail talking about wanting more reality, wanting to feel, touch, taste and experience the real world versus getting your...
Indian food by the Yuma tent. Still expensive, it is Coachella. Get the combo platter for$11 and you should be pretty full and even have some left to share.
The burritos in the campground are...
I tried to like Puscifer. Listened to all their albums a couple times. There a couple standout tracks, but it is overwhelmingly meh. HTDA I like a bit more and will probably check out.
I would go with Reignwolf 1st. Since I am doing both weekends, I think I will do both. That's how we deal with problems in the First World, by overdoing it.
This is what I am afraid alot of people are going to do.
Haha! Well my mom and brother are. Also, I wasn't implying Wolfbeckett was raggin on Mormons. They just seem to get a disproportionate amount of shit.
Probably is serious. Mormons are harmless, I don't understand the angst people have for them. Let 'em be.
If you are going to do this plan it out well. You need at least like 20 people positioned all throughout the crowd to get the real effect and you have to all pic a drop to do it on. If it is Pretty...
This guy is what it's all about. I would do the same if we didn't have a clusterfu*% of people already. I was "adopted" in 2010 and it made for a grand experience. Awesome neighbors. Good luck.
We did it last year. For us it was definitely worth it. I can't even imagine only going one weekend with the amount of conflicts I am going to have. I guess it all depends on how the lineup is for...
You're from Portland? Like the microbrew capital of the world Oregan, Portland? PBR is a fine chugging beer and is not really a bad choice in the heat, but for being from Portland I would expect more.
Going to both with some mellow days in Sequoia National Park in between recovering in nature and tracking down the biggest of the big. Did Doublechella last year with San Felipe in between. It was...
This.
Awesome weather. It wasn't too cold if you just wore a jaket and pants. The minor drizzle during Mazzy Star was nice, except it messed with the bass a couple times. So nice to not wake up...
I hope he plays way early. Less conflicts makes it more likely I will actually see him. If he is much further down the line I can almost assure conflicts trumping me seeing him. I like what I have...
Deadmau5 during a fairly early day set in '08. Only went because The Field didnt show up. Passport issues I think. Deadmau5 was enjoyable, but I still don't understand why he got so massive. He is...
This is true. Damn, my hair was pretty grimey. Also you look funny without any beard. Remember jumping the middle guard rail corridor when security wasn't looking and running up to the front and...
After listening through most of your albums a couple times here is what I am hoping to hear.
She Turns to Flowers
Mind Gardens
Happen Happened
A Day in Erotica
And So We Run
I Go Wild
I don't know what type of venues he is playing in other cities, but considering he is playing a shed (albeit a big shed) in SLC, I dont see him being that huge. I wish he was playing a real venue so...
I am really intrigued by the 7 or so songs I have listened to from these guys. Going to start going through their discography. Anybody have a recommendation for which album I should start with?
I would definitely not say Fantasies for Metric. Old World Underground , Where are You Know is my favorite. Both Live It Out and Grow Up and Blow Away are better than Fantasies IMO.
Also unless you are a chronic caffeine intaker then cut out the red bull after ~7 or 8. Timing of your substances is everything.
Melatonin is only going to help if you are taking it at the same time everyday for a while and even then the evidence is sketchy. The point of it is to reset your circadian rhythme, it doesn't really...
Wow! No idea who these guys were before this thread. Pretty excited to delve into them based on just the 3 songs posted. I logged in just to say how relevant this music feels to me despite its age....
Perhaps you are the one that has changed. Either that or you're doing it wrong. Coachella is different every year and has a thousand different combos that YOU get to decide upon. If you can't have a...
Lost Horizons is by far their best album IMO. All the Ducks are Swimming in the Water and Space Walk are my 2 favorite Lemon Jelly Songs, but the whole album is pretty solid. Then I would go to...
Thanks, that's a convenient little program.
Also I meant between Green and Broadway, and on Columbus. My bad. I just found the most complete bike map I have seen for any big city....
I don't have the exact address on me now, it's somewhere around Broadway and Green. Just curious how much a local biker thinks traffic in this city affects them. 45 min sounds reasonable I guess for...
Can a local help me out? How long do you think it would take to bike from downtown, say the financial district, to GGP? We are not from there, but are staying with a friend and want to avoid the...
Perfect. The early the better. It worked at Coachella in 11 and I can see it work again. Just their music reminds me of wandering a festival in the middle of the day.
The Antlers- Burst Apart, so good. Made me go back through Hospice and I get ithe concept so much more now than on 1st listen, though I still think Burst apart has much better individual songs.
Tangerine Dream
Where to start? There are over 100 albums! I have been noticing alot of artists I like describing krautrock as an influence. While I still don't completely understand what defines...
I think the potential slots discussed above are fairly reaslistic and close to ideal for me. However, I feel like the Twin Peaks stage has alot of dead spots for sound and a mellower act like Sigur...
