Ahhh, Coachella!


There is nothing I love more than music and road trips! Ok, so crafts would be up there too. But if I need to get the creative energy flowing, nothing sparks my brain like a good concert. And Coachella is the best concert/3 day experience in Southern California. By now, I'm sure that all of you have seen the amazing line-up- its going to be crazy!! If I could afford all three days, I would jump on it for sure. Yes, they do have a layaway plan now, which is what I used last year and it was definitely worth it. I just can't spare the extra dough this year- sad. So now I'm here debating on which day to go. I really want to go on Friday to see: Them Crooked Vultures (they rock your face off live), Vampire Weekend, Grizzly Bear, Passion Pit, She & Him (who doesn't want to see Zooey Deschanel?), Grace Jones, The Avett Brothers, Ra Ra Riot, Dj Lance Rock and so many more! On the other hand Sunday boasts The Gorillaz (how are they going to show a cartoon band? I'm sure huge screens will be involved.), De La Soul, Phoenix, Sly and the Family Stone (how random is that?), and Charlotte Gainsbourg. Actually, Saturday looks awesome too, haha. What to do?

Are any of you going? Did you see that they are going to have a farmer's market on site this year- actually a really good idea. Now if only they would have a handmade section- then I could seriously live there for all three days!!

  4. What would be perfect is a handmade craft fair AND DJ Lance Rock... I had no idea he did the adult venue thing. Last I heard a girlfriend of mine met him backstage with her two-year-old at Yo Gabba Gabba Live. Hmm. Go figure. Learn something new everyday! I had heard about the 'new' ticket sales deal, bummer. Maybe I'm old but even one all day concert has me shriveled like a prune. Sounds like you thrive on it though! Sorry to hear you'll have to shell out the big bucks or not go at all! Wonder why they did that??
