Sometimes, especially in the middle of the week, you really don't want to have people over to your house. But then again, maybe I can only say that because Snoop Dogg has never been a guest at my place. For although it appears that he's been a weekly fixture at the Levi's Haus showroom/event space in West Hollywood since he played a show there in between Coachella weeks, I really can't imagine anyone has a problem with a weekly appearance from Snoop. Especially after reports have The Doggfather keeping the party rocking through a short power outage Tuesday night. More»

You could get pregnant two months from now, have the baby, and then it would be Coachella 2013. Just to put it in perspective, that's how much your life could change between now and then. But I guess being one of those Coachella baby people next year is just not a concern to those who purchased tickets yesterday when the presale began and sold out in a matter of hours. The craziest part is, I'm not even a little bit surprised. More»

Well, I guess we shouldn't be surprised by this, given Goldenvoice's clear intent to make Coachella 2013 a topic of discussion every week between now and next April, but I guess this is still a big deal: it appears that we already have the lineup for next year's Coachella. Sure, I can see how you might be skeptical, given that it comes to us via noted less-than-serious website Funny or Die, but take a moment to read it over after the jump. If you've ever been to Coachella (or even just heard your friends' endless Coachella stories), I think you'll agree it's just too accurate to be a forgery. More»

Despite the fact that a good many out there are still paying off the costs to both their bank account and brain cell count of attending Coachella this year, we learned Monday that Goldenvoice very simply does not care. It hasn't even been a full month since this year's two-week desert music fest, but the unbelievably premature presale for Coachella 2013 tickets begins this morning. And as your faithful source for all things Coachella, we have the details on what you need to know about purchasing Advance Sale tickets to the festival that doesn't even have a lineup when they go on sale in about 30 minutes.

THIS JUST IN... as promised, Coachella made the big mystery announcement they teased on Friday with an intentionally vague Tweet and Instagram prompting us all to wait with baited breath for some big news at 10am PST Monday morning. And, as we surmised, the big announcement revealed the Coachella 2013 dates (held over two weekends), and that ticket presale, or "Advance Sale" in their words, will begin this week. Keep reading for all the details and what all of this ridiculously premature information (dude, seriously, Coachella 2012 ended literally three weeks ago...) means for you. More»

Goldenvoice is really not giving us the time and space we all need to collect ourselves and recover in between Coachellas. Although it's only been three weeks since this year's two-weekend installment of the annual festival, it appears they want us to start thinking about next year's by way of a cryptic message they sent out into the universe a couple of hours ago. In keeping with their mysterious, vague and intentionally withholding fashion of dispensing information, the official Coachella Twitter account tweeted the following message with along with this Instagram: More»

We won't debate that when we first started putting together yesterday's Instagram roundup of the Stagecoach Festival, the all-country weekend that came after Coachella at the Empire Polo Club, it was mostly a joke, a way to get some cheap laughs at the expense of a bunch of rednecks. But we've got to admit, the crazy good times that these wacky guys and gals are having is kind of making us think fondly of the whole thing, despite having seen more cowboy hats and Confederate flags than your average left-leaning Jew is entirely comfortable with. Now if someone could just explain to us what a "Brad Paisley" is. More»

You didn't think we were going to let the absolute pinnacle of mank bro season go without an in-depth look at the many proudly on display at Coachella, did you? No darling, we're diving head first into the special time of year in a world where men, typically of the bro variety, not only find tank tops in public to be acceptable wardrobe staples, but actually prefer this look for reasons that escape us. And this year we got a double dose of bro mankage all over the Coachella Valley with two weekends of the music fest. So get comfortable, break out the Bud Light Platinum and cue the Asher Roth album as we take you on this exciting journey through the bounty of man pits and shoulders across Brochella 2012, kicking off what is sure to be a fruitful mank bro season.

It must really save Goldenvoice a few bucks on the Ferris wheel deposit to string their weekends together like this, because while organizing, running and keeping the peace between hipsters, scenesters and bros at two straight weekends of Coachella would seem to be enough work for just about anyone, GV rallied to deliver a third straight music festival at the Empire Polo Club this weekend. Of course, this time around, at the all-country-music Stagecoach Festival, the place felt subtly, but unmistakably, different. Let's investigate. More»

We're back with more Coachella coverage because we had so much fun this year and still have lots of cool photos to share. Whatever, deal with it. This year's pilgrimage spanning two weekends with identical lineups brought new meaning to the expression "different, but the same," with Weekend 1 so cold and rainy I had to buy kids jeggings at Wal-Mart to stay warm, and the majority of Weekend 2 as the mother of scorchers hovering somewhere north of 100º almost the entire time. Come with us as we show you everything from the pool parties, people (pretty, not pretty and just plain weird), performers and crowds in this visual journey through Coachella 2012, Weekend 2. More»

We know we're the wrong people to be delivering this message, but it's rapidly approaching the time that we're all going to have to let Coachella go. You can continue to treasure your experiences, but after a week or two nobody really wants to hear your story about how your Ecstasy trip peaked at the top of the Ferris wheel right when Gotye hit that high note. Sorry! The good news is, there are wonderful local traditions like Steve Aoki's annual post-Coachella rager at Dim Mak Studios to help reintegrate you into society by giving you a healthy combination of things that are the same as they are at Coachella, and things that are different. We'll explain. More»
