I have 2 "Weekend 2" VIP tickets available for sale or will trade for 2 "Weekend 1" VIP tickets.
I'm attending weekend 1 regardless and can meet you in Palm Springs on Thursday or at the venue on...
I have 2 VIP passes for Weekend 2. I'll trade them for 2 VIP passes for Weekend 1.
I am attending Weekend 1 for sure and will have them with me. We can meet in Palm Springs on Thursday or at...

the sound at the fox is always bass heavy and reverberating. just about every other major venue sounds much better... the fillmore, gamh, warfield. i'll take the smaller venues over the fox too. ...
The Fox in Oakland is a beautiful venue but the sound absolutely sucks there.
There are too many great British bands that had this problem... The Catherine Wheel (first two albums are great), Swervedriver...
One could just as easily bash EDM
I saw Tame Impala a couple years ago at a small club here in SF and they were great live. If you like Beach House then check out Purity Ring, another band I saw last year, they have a similar feel...
everyone i know who goes loves the line up but perhaps we're all a little more seasoned musically. stone roses and blur... outstanding. rhcp... i'd close the curtains if they played across the...
not that everyone has to like The Stone Roses or Blur but I'm curious how many crazed Radiohead fans have no clue who they are... those same people need to educate themselves on music a little more...

i just hope they get someone running the sound in the gobi tent that knows what they're doing. it sucked last year.
all the same level of blah
I saw them both nights in Barcelona with 1800 drunk Brits... unforgettable!
The only thing i don't really understand is New Order not headlining. If RHCP played across the street then I'd close the curtains but I expect to not care for at least one headliner. That's the...

and i saw them with The Horrors in sf on tues night and the sound was much improved. the keys were a bit louder than i expected but how many people notice that sort of stuff?
and both bands...
I was leaning on the rail in front of the sound board for The Black Angels and was about 15 feet closer to the stage for The Horrors. For St Vincent I was about 20 ft to the right of the sound...
The sound for their set blew... outright terrible. I've seen them 3 or 4 times and the sound for this show was the worst I've seen. It was a big reverberating mess. At first I thought it was the...
"killed it" has to be the most over used expression in music
Mojave has better sound and the tents are identical.
I was standing 1 foot in front of the sound board right on the rail for one show. 15 feet further up for another, and 15 feet to the right of...
They had a day to fix it.
Every set I've seen in the past 2 days at the Gobi stage has been plagued with lackluster sound.
The low end tones are reverberating like crazy and distorting up everything. Every kick drum beat...
can someone kill this thread? this was started last year
having all of this info on one page, and not a multi-paged forum post, would be super helpful. that way one could search for keywords.
Girls? no way... bore-fest.
I've seen them a few times dating back to 2006. Once was really good, another time was lackluster. I think they didn't have their own sound guy on the lackluster show so the sound was off. I'm...
i saw them a couple years ago. it was one of the worst and most boring shows i've attended. a friend went to see them months later and told me the same thing, before she knew my opinion of the show...
weekend 1
after signing in at 9:58:30 and being in the queue for 65 minutes, it finally let me in to buy 4.
if you're still on standby without a notice that it's soldout, keep waiting. they must have...
i downloaded the full video from here:

did anyone rip the official video stream? i was there and would like a copy of it.
thanks
apparently the word has been bastardized, just like "indie".
if you go to a rave or dance party and a dj is spinning, that's now considered a ''concert"? ok
then so is the terrible homeless sax player begging for cash on the street
i think DJs shouldn't count as a concert
anyone know if they'll make this available after the weekend? i see that a few videos are available in the archive but not much.
or if anyone has the Elbow or Pains of Being Pure at Hearts sets...
isn't the expression 'die-hard'?
Sam is definitely still with the band. I think you're thinking of the replacement bass player who left. If I remember correctly, they are on their second...
go to the ticket office
please. i'd challenge you to a music trivia contest any day of the week.
while Kings of Leon do have a couple of tracks i sort of like from about 5 years ago (yet i always skip if they every come...
thanks for the info on the stagecraft app. i downloaded it and deleted the official app. it seems to be much more stable and the UI is considerably better.
i also used the web based coachooser...
lol
Anyone else remember the outfit the singer wore the first time around? Super low rise pants w shirt open. That was the only time I ever wanted to be blind.. And possibly deaf.
I went w a...
Don't just quit the app, kill it by closing it via the backgrounder bar thingy.
Double-click on the home button
Press the Coachella app icon, at the bottom bar that appears, until it starts...
They are the opposite of hip. They've always sucked. I wanted to chuck tomatoes at them the first year.
KoL is way better, and I'm not even a fan.
I had to force quit the app for the times to show up.
This app is really frustrating. The execution and UI leaves a lot to be desired.
and in this day of web development and ajax, they use a thousand radio buttons for this thing? terrible
the web based Coachooser isn't working well using Safari or Firefox. clicking on 'save' refreshes the page but then the page is blank.
anyone having this problem?
but under Coachooser > All, when you're showing all artist, not just the ones I want to see, all artist should show up in alphabetical order... not in order of when they play... right? plus...
the new update still doesn't fix the alphabetical order of the artist when viewing all artists
this would be fantastic but with my luck, they'd play at the same time as two other favs, or "must sees"
