Back in Black....well...not really

So in the past 6 mths or so I've taken to going to festivals..regardless of the cash involved. I really don't get a kick out of much more than a live gig; although I'm sure if I could actually PLAY an instrument it could possibly get better...but for now I'll settle for travelling to shows and RockBand.

Soooo for today let's start with Coachella - Coachella is a crazy music - art - hippie - hipster - something for everyone deal in the middle of the desert in Indio, CA...approx 3 hrs from LA. Not only was this my first time to Coachella but also my first time to LA...arrival date: Thurs April 23rd [bday weekend I might add]. Departure date: Tuesday April 28th.. 5 nights..5 days.

2 1/1 of which were spent here:


this is the W Hotel in Beverly Hills - that's how we roll...if you can't afford the trip in the first place than you might as well go all in...Sting was here you know..yup - right after I left to share a plane ride with Paul Stanley - Lindsey and Claire leave the hotel and run right into Sting. Maybe you've never heard of him..he's a fairly good musician that once played in an old skool band that achieved - what u might call - a moderate level of success and has achieved quite the solo career.

for the other 3 days we spent out time here [see subsequent pic porn of the Coachella grounds]

be back in a bit with more....
