Coachella vets, do you prefer 3 days or 2?

**malcolmjamalawesome** · 05-01-2007, 04:34 PM

After getting your first 3 day Coachella, what do you think?

**matsuolost** · 05-01-2007, 04:35 PM

depends...... but im going with 3

**boyalien0** · 05-01-2007, 04:51 PM

it was rough, and i guess i only had 2 and a half days because i didn't get there on friday until 6 (missed of montreal...i cried a little.) but 3 days is way better than 2. fuck it, push the start time to 3 or 4 pm each day and make it a 4 day festival. avoid the sun.

**ADrunkPoet** · 05-01-2007, 04:56 PM

Three days, no doubt...
By the third day, everyone develops a thick skin to the heat, or maybe that was just me.

**matsuolost** · 05-01-2007, 04:57 PM

yeah i was less tired on sunday

**instinct** · 05-01-2007, 05:00 PM

3 days.. The weekend still went by sooo quick.

**Senor Cardgage** · 05-01-2007, 05:02 PM

3 Days is the exact perfect amount.
I used up every last drop of everything I had in me just to make it to the end.
Loved every minute.

**antpeople** · 05-01-2007, 05:03 PM

I can't believe it's over too...but, 3 days was a bit much. I would do it again, but would be just as happy with 2 again.

**amyzzz** · 05-01-2007, 05:08 PM

I would say 2 days with better headliners. I only liked Bjork as a headliner, and Saturday was almost completely useless for me.

not a vet, but have to say that was the quickest 3 days of my life

**ivankay** · 05-01-2007, 05:16 PM

since a lot of people like to consider Coachella their spiritual refreshing, 3 days seems very appropriate. It felt more removed from the world than other times. Harder for sure, but give me tres.

**denies the day** · 05-01-2007, 05:17 PM

Going in, I thought my body would just give out after the second day. Instead, I had just as much energy. I could've done a fourth day, no prob. But certainly not camping.

mental > physical

3, even though I was basically dead at the end of the last day.

also nice meeting you malcolm

**suprefan** · 05-01-2007, 05:39 PM

3 was fine with me. I was able to see a lto more things and not sacrifice as much as I have in previous years. I need to pace myself a little better though. I went balls to the wall saturday and Sunday I was hiding out for a long time.

**Michelle** · 05-01-2007, 05:39 PM

bring it on! give me four days!! btw, are there any festivals longer than 3 days?

**fatbastard** · 05-01-2007, 05:44 PM

Goes without saying.

**woogie846** · 05-01-2007, 05:45 PM

I loved 3 days, but I don't think I'd go 4.

**algunz** · 05-01-2007, 05:50 PM

3 is the magic number.

Great conversation, by the way.
TLTK: "Dave Wang!"
MJA: "How do you know of Dave Wang?"
TLTK: "He hates trance."

**Mabdul Doobakus** · 05-01-2007, 06:03 PM

I'm somewhat of a special case, but I definitely prefer 2. The one good thing about 3 is that it allows me to choose Saturday plus my favorite of either Friday or Sunday. But I don't like the feeling of having missed an entire day.

"WAIT, HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT???"

**miscorrections** · 05-01-2007, 06:48 PM

this was my first year, but 3 days flew by. i can't imagine it being only two.
yes, i completely crashed yesterday, but even though all the time there was go time i made it through. totally worth it.

**Natelevmofuggaz** · 05-01-2007, 06:58 PM

I mean Bonnaroo is 4 days.

So yeah, the more Coachella the better.

**Boourns** · 05-01-2007, 07:04 PM

Two fucking amazing days. Three is too tolling on the body, especially when camping.

**AEversW** · 05-01-2007, 07:35 PM

two great days is fine for me...sunday was kinda usless for me except for Explosions in the Sky but i ended up not going sunday anyways due to my allergies.

**Azucarazule** · 05-01-2007, 07:40 PM

I liked the 3, but it was pretty stressful getting there on Friday. If you're traveling any kind of distance (say, flying in from the East coast) it takes massive planning and knowing stuff such as the rental car companies taking forever, the 10 getting horribly bogged down after 3pm, etc.

w3rd! 2 days, 3 days or a Coachella week it's a good time. But yeah I guess if you're camping they'd need a lot more shade & water otherwise peeps would start dying.

**bdub0821** · 05-01-2007, 07:49 PM

I would go with 3 days again next year. I was more exhausted this year for sure but Coachella seems to drain me in one way and energize me in another.

**the909** · 05-01-2007, 07:54 PM

Not a vet but three days seemed pretty good, although i totally ran myself ragged friday and was just dead saturday morning i paced myself better and was good through sunday.The heat played more into it though than anything else.

**jenni4** · 05-01-2007, 07:56 PM

3 days definately was awesome. On the way back home Monday morning I was complaining that I wished that there was another day of Coachella.
