sleeping at coachella

[WillyWonka5497]

has anyone ever slept at coachella?

Jack Johnson's painstakingly boring set allowed me to get a 45 minute nap.

because you suck at life...

i went into the fest early from the campgrounds to sleep in the shade

[Pixiessp]

I had to take a nap in preparation for The Pixies in 04. I then took another nap while Phantom Planet played later that evening.

last year at fatboy slim and at rage against the machine in '07, we were pretty far back so there were no crazy people who would stomp. i know, i know. it was a really exhausting weekend in '07 and i wasn't too insanely hyped about rage at that point. and last year i slept REALLY crappy the night before.

For 15 minutes during the second hour of Prince, did not miss Purple Rain.

Slept under the shade on Saturday morning right after we went into the fest for a couple of hours. best sleep I got all weekend

Sunday in the Sahara. I started foaming at the mouth and my friends told people who passed by that i ODed on ecstacy.

i fell asleep for a couple minutes during bjork in 07. it actually was pretty awesome, laying with my girlfriend closing my eyes as the most awesome place in the world swirled around me

[hello_HELLO]

Does passing out count?

I remember I dozed off during a part of Madonna's set during '06. I was overwhelmed by too many sweat fat gay dudes, and left the tent. I found the cool green grass outside of the tent, and a little back a ways was really nice. I was out for maybe... 20 minutes, but it felt good. Then it was Go! Team time!

In 07 on Sunday I had about a two hour weed induced nap-thing... I don't know I was really fucking high and just couldn't move. I laid down under the canopy across from all of the food vendors and didn't get back up for a couple of hours.

Took a picture of this dude napping on his shoe as I was leaving after Bjork in '07. I figure he'd probably been asleep for most if not all of her performance. Surprised he didn't get trampled, actually.

Man, I slept right through that shit. I say it's not a riot if it's less than 100 yards from your tent and you sleep right through it both nights.

Fell asleep during Damien Marley (is that the dude's name?) waiting for Peaches. Also fell asleep a little during Sonic Youth. I had an hour sleep the night before. Worst day ever.

dude. you were waiting for PEACHES?! her set was pretty much unanimously reviewed as a teeming sack of shit transformed into a musical 'performance'. stephen and damian marley were awesome. I met ron jeremy during their set.

don't feel bad about falling asleep during sonic youth. I didn't exactly, sleep, but I kind of drifted. inn a good way. it was a beautiful night, it had been an amazing day, so I lay down on the grass on my back, and listening to sonic youth and staring at the sky, I just kind of... yeah. drifted.

[Heimster]

Shit, I get there at noon every day to miss the lines and take a nap in the Mojave tent.

[shakermaker113]

I used to take a nap in the shade of the film tent. when it used to exist.

[adeline3]

i managed to get a few hours in every night due to my BRILLIANT earplug plan.

squishy foam earplugs IN the ear, silicone putty earplugs OVER the ear canal. add an eye-mask and i could sleep through nuclear fallout.

[sin213]

there is no sleeping at coachella, the same way there is no crying in baseball.

[Mugwog]

Coachella is a weekend where you don't sleep, you sleep after sitting through Monday morning traffic or driving through deadly desert winds that will move your car over a foot or two at night time.

Then your friend loses his keys during Rage and you have to break into his Benz just to get your key and then be lucky enough to have another friend drive you back to Orange County, where your other friend grabs his spare key, and then you drive back to Coachella, then you drive back home in the Monday morning traffic.

THEN
ONLY THEN
CAN YOU SLEEP

platinum pied pipers knocked me right out. zzzZZZ

I definitely slept through part of The Magic Numbers one year.
