[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Coachella, especially, is very much a go to see and be seen event. It’s cool to say you went and people get into dressing up and taking photos for social media etc. From what I’ve heard about this festival it’s a bit less about the music than the overall vibe and fun/party atmosphere. Lots of celebrities and influencers.

Generally, people like live music for the energy the crowd brings, it can make the music feel somehow more exciting and exhilarating to hear [/quote]

You could not pay me to go to this festival as a regular person. Maybe I would go as a celebrity with my own special tent and every amenity I could want [/quote]

This article isn't really that accurate.  Most people don't drive in and walk forever to get to the venue -- most camp or take a bus.  It's not that dirty either; they cherry-picked the photos.  And yes, it's hot, but when the sun goes down, the weather is almost perfect.  Most people do partial days/nights.  There is music from 10am to 2am every day, you have to pace yourself.  And you have to be able to handle crowds and go with the flow.  [/quote]
I went 10 years ago with 30 classmates from business school and we all stayed at the same compound. Hung out in the pool most of the day and only bussed over around 5 so it wasn’t nearly as hot. It was definitely dusty so you bring bandanas but blowing your nose at the end of the night was so gross.. I have fond memories - yes it’s overpriced, super crowded, loud but it was really fun in my 20s! Sounds terrible now lol. But outdoor live music is so fun![/quote]
