The general wisdom on Coachella Weekend Two is that the best of the private parties were all gotten out of the way last week, and that this weekend is all about keeping it slightly lower key, enjoying the bands, and probably going to bed before, not after, sunrise. But while there may not be a Neon Carnival this weekend, you could still easily make a weekend out of the private pool parties, and late night ragers that big names like Rolling Stone, SKYY, and FILTER are sponsoring starting tonight. And the best kept secret of all is that without the millions of events from Weekend One dividing everyone's attention, there are rumors of some BIG names playing unannounced sets or dropping by several of these.

Except for the one a certain athletic wear brand and print-heavy fashion designer famously throw every year but asked not to be included because they're just too special, we present to you the complete list of the best and most exclusive parties in the desert this weekend in our annual Coachella 2012 Weekend Party Guide.

[Girl Talk. Photos via SPIN] Last night, I had the pleasure of catching DJ Gregg Gillis, aka Girl Talk, live at Hiro Ballroom for the SPIN Magazine/Canon Party. I was part of a group helping a friend celebrate his 27th birthday, though I ran into dozens of familiar faces.  "Girl Talk: I'm Not A DJ" flashed on the big video screens. Um, yeah ya are. And that's what makes this "concert" so cool... More»
