Best were the Radioheads and the Junior Seniors, perhaps not coincidentally the acts I most wanted to see. But they did not disappoint. Also I very much liked the Kraftwerks the Stereolabs and the Kinkys. The fest itself was all groovy except for the horrible traffic afterward. The hot heat was manageable (you must remember to hydrate), the cost of food and water were not extortionary, you pay more at the movies. No one set anything on fire who wasn't supposed to. Stayed at the nearby home of Lopez Beatle Bruce Rhodewalt, who is an old Coachella hand having in fact sold them their domain name. Ran into Jackson Haring.
