    Question Wearing a mask/helmet ok?

    So I'm thinking about wearing my Stormtrooper helmet for part of Coachella 2013. I've put LED lights in it, so it looks pretty cool when it's lit up at night, and I've been to clubs/raves/concerts with it before, so it's not too hard to dance with it on. It's not big and bulky like a Deadmau5 helmet, so I figured it would be ok to wear as it really doesn't block the view of anyone standing behind me. The main questions I have are: A. Are we aloud to bring any type of mask/helmet into the Coachella grounds? And B. Has anyone worn a mask/helmet to Coachella before, and was it worth carrying around for part of the day?

    Post a picture of you wearing the mask.

    I have a friend who's borrowing it for a photo shoot this week, but as soon as I get back into to town on Sunday/Monday I'll post a pic.

    I have worn a Batman head and cape thing but its gets super hot during the day. If I were you I would get a locker and keep it in there till the sun goes down. That way you wont have to carry it around all day. As far as being allowed in with the helmet goes.. I would say if they can search it and its not ridiculous in size you should be ok. Also I agree with Mr. Fuzz, post a picture of you wearing the mask.

    I appreciate the feedback. This will be my first Coachella so I figured I'd just get a few opinions before actually doing it.

    RESERVE A LOCKER asap. They sell out before the festival.

    Would I have to physically show up beforehand on Thursday, or just call and reserve one? How much are they for the weekend/day?

    I wore my unicorn head for about 5 minutes weekend 2 before I had to take it off because I would have died. Be careful.

    I don't give a shit what mask you wear, but if I see ANYONE in a Guy Fawkes mask they're getting goosed. Male or female.

    I have a chicken and gorilla suit. I wonder if I should bring one this year. The chicken suit's much more manageable (no harness, etc.)

    I also recently acquired a melodica but I'm pretty sure no instruments are allowed. I'll bring it for the campgrounds perhaps.

    Does the website spell it aloud too? That would be funny if they were retarded too. **Allowed**

    While reading this thread I looked up to see that the temperature here in Indio is 91*... It's March 1st... Go ahead and wear the mask, but I'd make certain you had a stash place for it since you probably won't be wearing it for long.

    Another Daft Punk album, great guys, so glad you spent years making this:


    Now would you please shut the fuck up with this boring crap and get back to mixing these tracks in with the rest of your catalog into something actually interesting, build a goddamn LED spaceship and get the fuck back on the road.
