Coachella Music Festival



I've purchased my tickets and will be on my way in forty days, back to the desert to soak in as much music as I can in three days. Ha! I'm really excited about seeing all of my music loving friends, and meeting some new ones. I think the head count is somewhere around 14 now. We will be packed in like sardines, but I'm okay with that.

Bands I'm excited about (in no order):

Paul McCartney
Morrissey
Leonard Cohen
Conor Oberst
Girl Talk
The Hold Steady
Thievery Corp
Band of Horses
Drive-By Truckers
Calexico
The Cure
Peter Bjorn and John
Okkervil River

Now let me cross my fingers and hope I don't have to decide between acts!

Ryan Adams & The Cardinals

Kindra and I drove to Jax tonight and caught what might be my last Ryan Adams show for awhile, and his last tour with The Cardinals as it stands now. We were a little left of center in the third row, and had an amazing view of the band. They were spot on, and the acoustics in this venue were amazing.
