I finally finished putting together all of my post Coachella coverage from the first weekend of the festival. Below you will find a full slate of links to photos, videos, streaming music, and my very own survival guide (if you’re thinking about going next year). It was a fantastically well run festival and just in case anyone is wondering… the best performance I saw was M83 and the best experience I had was the show by Godspeed You! Black Emperor. (you should definitely check out music from both of those groups). Enjoy!
