Next Time: the Tallest Man on Earth and Foals

Are you subject to the same "first three songs only" (or whatever) limitation as all the other photographers?

Are you subject to the same "first three songs only" (or whatever) limitation as all the other photographers?

Yes. With djs, it is usually the first 15 minutes. Sometimes i get shut out. Usually that happens with Main Stage acts who only want select photographers taking their picture. i'm always trying to get my access to be more flexible. The past couple of years my on stage access has been nullified, but hopefully that will change so i can get shots i have in the past. To be clear, i wasn't targeted. The on stage restrictions were implemented for most back stage access because it has gotten pretty crowded up there.

[IceyHotshot]

Yes! Excited for the Tallest Man on Earth shots. He was my favorite act of the weekend.

[ivankay]

^Coming right up. Hope you like them.


More on this greatness here.

Foals











In the next episode: Two Door Cinema Club

[Boourns]

OUCH. Who was playing at the time?



Are those the garlic crab fries? Does anyone remember how much they were and if that's real or imitation crab meat?

Thanks for the shots of the water station...I was wondering how the new system worked last year.

Not sure. i just asked her if i could take her picture because they looked gooood. Hopefully someone who had the garlic fries can answer the questions. This year i am going to take more close ups of the individual food stands. And "yay", appreciation for water station pictures.

[IceyHotshot]

Thanks for the Tallest Man on Earth shots. They did not disappoint - transported me back to my favorite moments from last year.

Cool.

And rats. The new board has altered the way i would put 2 small pictures side by side. In the next posting i'll see if i can do that with smaller sizes. Grrr. i'll crack on that later today.

[ivankay]

This new board has fucked the way i have presented these pages. Oh well. The only way i can put 2 landscape pictures side by side is to opt for a small size like this:



Guess i'll just abandon side by side landscapes. Sigh.

Here's moar:

Next Episode: Elbow

[ivankay]

Something happened and it looks like medium pictures can fit side by side again. Yay.

Little trip into the VIP

Next: The possible wrap of Day 2.

[BobCaygeon]

I have a "coachella" query set up on flickr on my apple tv. I was looking at these shots earlier today in hi rez. Very nice.

[ivankay]

^That sounds like a cool way to look at pictures. i haven't seen these on anything bigger than the computer monitors i use in the day to day crud. i'm pleased you think they look nice on a sweet tv.

[Pixiessp]

Spectacular, Mike.

[zachyd]

I love this thread. I can't thank you enough. I check every day for new photos. Reliving last year little by little is just adding to the whole countdown to Coachella 2012 process!

Amazing pictures, thanks for bringing me back a year every time.

[kerby14]

wow these are truly amazing, i just wish there were some pics of shpongle. can't wait for the rest of them

[ivankay]

Spectacular, Mike.

Thank you Joann.

I love this thread. I can't thank you enough. I check every day for new photos. Reliving last year little by little is just adding to the whole countdown to Coachella 2012 process!

Sweet and glad to oblige.

wow these are truly amazing, i just wish there were some pics of shpongle. can't wait for the rest of them

i'll get shpongle one day. The thing i am looking most forward to with 2 Coachellas is getting to see conflict acts. And thank you.

Finally finished my set on flickr for Day 2. The link is here in case you want to get ahead of my next post, see the pictures bigger or download a copy. Remember download only for your personal non commercial use. If i ain't making money off of these, no one should.

[ivankay]

The rest of Day 2:


Arcade Fire






Because of Suede's awesomeness, i was a bit late for AF. No getting close with that crowd.




A bit of exhaustion kicked in and the crazy crowd prompted me to cruise on out. On the way i got revitalized in the Unknown Project. Strange how that worked.








Thanks Brandon for being a great model.






Daedelus




The Scissor Sisters







Going to break this up into 2 posts. Next: Leaving and other stuff.

[ivankay]

The girl on the left used that picture of her friend who couldn't make it to Coachella 2011 for pictures with substitutes throughout the weekend. If she sees this, post your pics. The girl on the right said "yes" to that guy's proposal.


These girls said this would be the best picture i took all day. Hmmm, they don't know how many i take


























And that was my Day 2.

Next: The beginning of Day 3 (unless this page needs padding).

[Goatchella]

Damn man. Mad respect. Beautiful shots.

[ods..]

Maybe you got a copy of CAMP being passed out this year. i was super excited to have a picture of mine take up the full last page. If you didn't get a copy, it is available to see online here.

WOW dude, that's your shot?!!! That's amazing. I seriously loved it when I saw it last year in the magazine. Gives me chills now looking at it.

Thanks for this amazing thread. Seriously perfect shots, and it is hyping me up so much! Can't wait for April!

[kerby14]

bump for awesomeness

Trips me out how much different things look in print. i'm still stoked over it. Thanks and you're welcome.

bump for awesomeness

Thanks for the bump.

Been a little occupied, but am almost ready to begin Sunday. Figuring out which pictures to work on and put up always makes me insecure about my photography. Once that editing is done and it is in one of these threads i feel better. Time to pad this page until the next page comes up:


This is a guy who was cool enough to let me take his picture on the area in the Sahara reserved for those with certain needs.
