It's the MOST wonderful TIME of the year!!!

Spring is around the corner and just in for the indie music-conscious individuals' "most wonderful time of the year"!  Hipsters, hippies, and celebs travel from far reaches of the country to attend this very event.  COACHELLA, the infamous music and art festival held in Indio, California.  Ok, I have to admit that I would not label myself worthy enough to be called a Coachella veteran, since last year was my 1st year going but I do have enough experience to let you know that if you attend you will have the time of my life.  Yes it is held the middle of the desert, yes it is blazing hot, and yes all three days in the desert sun may not be your idea of fun.  But, I assure you the Coachella experience is all very very very much worth every penny spent on the overpriced tickets.  This year they are offering a payment plan for the tickets to accommodate to all of us suffering from the economy at an all time low.  Some of the highlights from last year include; hearing one of my favorite songs Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve live, watching Prince party like it's 1999, hearing Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety, and watching amazing performance by Cold War Kids, Manchester Orchestra, Rilo Kiley, TV on the Radio, Deathcab, SIA, Kate Nash, Rogue Wave, Shout Out Louds, The Bird and the Bee, Yelle, Justice, MIA, and so many more that I can't think of at the moment.  I apologize for my constant rambling, there is really no words to really give my experience justice.  All, I am saying is GO even if it is just once, but I do warn you due to the amazing time you will have it will become an annual must-go event!
