Kids at Coachella

[humboldtmama]

Kids under 5 are free, Has anyone seen young kids at past shows? Im considering bringing my 4 year old, if I cant get a sitter... (Im only going to the later part of the day on Sunday to see Rage)

[psychic friend]

The Fan submitted photo's is a wonderful place to get a feel for the overall Coachella-ness.

[SFChrissy]

That's rad...I'm taking my boys to see Stephan Marley in Golden Gate park on sunday!!! Bring your kids if they can hang and if you've taken 'em to gigs before!!!

[summersong1985]

I don't remember seeing any, but I was not lookingfor them. as far as kids just remember it can be really hot. so bring a sun hat and lots of sunscreen. I have lived in the coachella area forever and I have seen tons of people get sick due to heat.

[UnicornsForBreakfast]

Dude, don't bring your kid. They won't like it. It's hot, and loud. You won't like it, cause you're gonna be dealing with their tantrum.

I probably also won't like it.

[Shyeviolett]

Kids during the day=fine
Kids during the night= baaaad idea.

You're only complaining because YOU won't like it. Fess up.

I say bring your kid if you want to. I'm not going to bring my kids until they're older, but if you and your kid can handle it, then more power to you.

[JustSteve]

bringing your kid strictly for rage, though, just doesn't seem like a good idea...unless you want to stand at the very, very, very back where you will not see and hardly hear anything of quality.

if I see any kid I'm slipping him e

edit: just kidding that was a bit much

[momof5]

I have five kids so my advice might count for something--Anyway I would not bring young kids during the day because it is too hot--taking care of yourself is tough enough. And at night it is hard to walk around as it is really crowded and dark and there is trash on the ground. Let go of a 4 year old and they will be lost. Also you probably wouldn't want to be too close or he will be crushed> If you are only coming for Rage I would wait and just go to a Rage Show since they are touring. I made a rule for my kids that they had to be 13 to go to Coachella even though they have been to lots of shows. Maybe you will get lucky and find a sitter!

yo yo yo yo what you trying to say about me shye?

I thought we had a thing! you will the 300 pound girls dancing to bad pop music, me with the thong and trucker hat

what's the deal baby gurl

[GTI_GRL]

If you do, I would do the following

-Ear Plugs
-Sun Screen, Hat, Sweater for at night, etc....
-I would make sure your kid/s has a glow stick or two on them so they are seen at night. People can trip over them and hurt your kid/s.
-Bring a photo of your kid/s and what he/she is wearing that day.
-Leave your info on/with your kid/s. Full name, cell number, em. contact, etc... They make temp tattoos that you can fill out with your info.

You want to be ready for the worse, there is going to be 50,000 - 60,000 people and adults get lost.

If you are only coming for Rage I would wait and just go to a Rage Show since they are touring.

Or better yet, take the kid to Rock The Bells.

"WU TANG CLAN AINT NOTHING TO FUCK WITH!"

he would be the most popular kid on the playground if he actually got to see Public Enemy.

I recall a fat lady having a baby in a stroller near the front left for Franz Ferdinand last year.

Jeallouuuusss.

Also, I am a former kandy kid. We're talking a solid 4 underground raves as one. I still have my stash. Luckily I met a jaded raver who loved trance and despised kandy kids, we had a torrid love affair for a couple months. He may have been a horrible person, but he did do something for me - killed the kandy kid. Hahaha.

My Kandy-ness took a hell of a lot longer to kill. I was Kandy for a solid year or so. I have the HUUUUUUGE popple pants to prove it.

Hahaha, those pants rule! I was more of a "party in my bra" kandy kid. We call them prostitots in the scene these days.

[lalayaya]

I'm bringing my toddler But of cousre I plan on staying far back while the bands are playing and bringing earplugs and earmuffs. You pretty much know your child and can grasp an idea of how they'll behave. If you think it won't be too much then bring them!

I totally don't like it. I'm not trying to hide anything. One of the things I really like about music festivals is that kids don't go. Kids are everywhere, and they piss me off.

[UnicornsForBreakfast]

Knowing that kids will be there, I almost don't even want to go anymore.

[Ineedmorelemons]

Seriously. Kids suck.

i figured i'd wait until the ones i did submit made it up. i only wanted to send a few at at time (i think you have an idea of how many i take) as not to over burden you. i have been thinking that burning a dvd for you with all of my favorites (shrunk down for your convenience of course) would be the easiest approach...then (hugs) would be in person (unless i mailed it).

[psychic friend]

ivankay see my pm

[Foucault]

Have you ever heard of laudenum? If you go to Coach with Kids, you'll need some for them and for you. Seriously.
