    Default Coachella awarded #1 again by Pollstar

    "The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has been named the best non-touring music festival in North America for the seventh time in the past eight years by the industry publication, Pollstar."

    Coachella 07 (the introduction), 08 (the bands), 09 (the documentary), 10 (the people i came with), 11 (the relationship test... we passed), 12 (whatever the weather, Dirty Epic forever), 13 (the year of the troll)

    Congrats GV! Despite our collective whining, I hope you realize that you do an excellent job and I love attending your fest.

    1.
    Run to a nice patch of grass on the fields and lay face down.
    2. Tilt your head ninety degrees with your forehead temple resting on your forearm and watch people through the vision pocket right underneath your armpit hair.
    3. Do this for a few hours until you get comfortable.


    A Daft Punk thread containing 'nothing of substance'. How bout that.

    they going to have to rename this the "coachella festival award" and retire them from competition like they did for red rocks in the venue category?

    Austin City Limits won in 2005, which I can attest was a great festival and at the time was my favorite I had been too so far. But then I started going to Coachella in 2006 and they've won ever since

    Most years' nominees seem to be Coachella, ACL, Lolla, and Bonnaroo.

    I love that there's "best major music festival" and "best music festival." I'm also really glad that Newport Folk Fest won "best music festival" this year, they do a phenomenal job with that and it's a great, great experience.

    The link didn't work btw. As much as I love Coachella, it does look like it is a link to a local mag which would be a bit bias. They are all great ..... Great job GV, PF, and Coachella in general.....cr****
