Week 1

Sorry Week 2 people, but it's true. We saw that Tupac hologram first.

After all that whining and dreading of desert heat and crowd, Coachella proved me wrong by being 1. cool and overcast, downright cold at times 2. fun and 3. and you don't notice the crowd at all because you're too inebriated to give a damn.

Refused–the sole reason I went to Coachella, was everything I'd imagined and more. They did not disappoint. Dennis Lyxzen is intense.. so much energy. After about 5 minutes of being thrown around in the mosh pit the thought "this seemed like a good idea at the tiiiiime?" did flit through my head (after all boys can be bigger than girls). But I was wearing my boots so I freely trampled on the feet of many ex-sXe kids. It was worth James almost breaking his nose to experience the late 90's again. This officially goes in my top 5 after the epic My Bloody Valentine reunion of 2009.

Jarvis sends out cosmic energy.

PULP!! So good. So drama.  A dapper Jarvis Cocker flirted, ate grapes Adonis-style.. and tossed 'confectionaries' at us. Everything has an undertone of sex with Jarvis, as he aptly demonstrated for us by grinding the floor while 'This is Hardcore'.

Buzzcocks. Need I say more...the old familiar logo itself takes me back to the numerous Buzzcocks pins we wore in high school.

Phase 1. Positively radiant. Excited to be here!

Phase 2. We party.

Phase 2.5. We get bellig

Phase 3. We go mad and pass out.
