Day Three: Coachella (finally!)


dragged ourselves to the fest for the last day. missed so much stuff but who could care by that point.

gogol bordello: people were way into this band. sounded fine. per uj, i was just getting settled in and wasn't really ready/able to focus on the tunes. was getting ready for the jacket.

MY MORNING JACKET: god. do i love this band. YES!!! i really do. can't say enough how much i love them. here's a fun vid (audio is a bit funky but was such a sick time of day, sick set of music). i just really do love them by the buckets-full.

roger waters: there was no sense in trying to bounce around pre-roger waters, so went back to vip, got a ridic spot with some really hot new friends, by this rad lion statue, at the i.d. check point, just cuz it was the easiest place to tell people to meet us. god, did we rock that lion. ridic. it was high times at the empire polo fields in indio, during roger waters. great job, everyone who was surrounding the lion.

one of my highlights of the festival was during the beginning of roger waters second set. i had been pretty hell bent on catching adam freeland's set at the DO LAB during roger waters. figuring r.w. was so long, i would be ready for a break, plus i was just really into adam's groove. by the time i remembered that i wanted to hit adam's set, i was like, "fuck it. i'm not leaving roger waters." it seemed like universes away to make it to the DO LAB. that's when i spotted adam on the steps, getting ready to watch r.w. i laughed. i ended up giggling and watching the first part of the dark side of the moon with the most adorable blond little british guy (adam freeland) and it was FUN! he is a total doll, and adorably sweet and was giggly, too. it was a giggly time of day, i guess. anyways, adam was more charming and sweet than imaginable, and i laugh at the irony of "skipping his set" to watch roger waters, then watching roger waters WITH him. hilar. love that shit. funny funny funny. couldn't bare to ask him for a pic with me. was too in the mo'. here's one last vid and then this coachella review is OVA.
