Coachella 2005
by brian @ 23:00:34 - [perma-link] We got back from Coachella tonight. We're so glad to be home!
Anyway... On Sunday we left in time to sell Connie's ticket (I was pretty much
over it and was planning to sell mine, too, but somehow Chris convinced
me I should go. I still don't remember how), and get to the show right
as Gang of Four (one of bryan's suggestions) was stepping on stage.
Someone in the crowd had, apparently, taken "party like a rockstar" (if
I had brought a better camera, you could read that under the butt on
the front of his trucker hat) a little too seriously and/or early, so
we had a nice unobstructed view. In their final song, the lead singer
was setting the beat by beating a microwave oven with a baseball bat.
Good show. After that there were these old guys called, like, "New World Order" or
something. ;) I remember one of their songs from high school, so after
I heard it I went to get food with Derek. The cajun turkey hot link
was excellent. We found all of these painted garbage cans on the way
back over, but they're more of an exhibit than a facility. And at the
end of the night, the port-o-potties were pretty damned gross. At
least they had helpful warnings. Chris and I, the hard-core music fans that we are, left after
recognizing a few Nine Inch Nails songs. Apparently the Prodigy was
off the hook, but we beat traffic so I figure it all evens out. Oh yeah. Now I can say I've seen Nine Inch Nails live. |
