Coachella Day 3 summary

2008-05-01T21:55:51Z

Coachella Day 3 I don't feel as rough as I usually do on a Day 3, which is comforting. We take our time getting there, having a leisurely breakfast. Traffic is once more a non-issue (where are all the cars?) and we get to the polo fields in prett...

Neon bible

A GREAT weekend. Saturday saw the Arcade Fire at The Greek. They were amazing; I think better than the first time I saw them at GAMH, which is saying a lot. It was a great big lovefest and was over way too quickly. Then on Sunday, we...
