by THEO HENDRIX · April 15, 2011

    Dear Coachella-goers, we know this is the most important information for your Coachella weekend, so stop fronting like you care more about the set times. Most of you are only going for the parties anyway, right? Right. Cool. We'll see you there, er, we'll be there, we won't necessarily see you though because our eyes may be under-performing... We know it's not in your nature to plan ahead and we've made the spontaneous game-planning for where to get your face melted easy with this comprehensive guide to all the parties in the desert this weekend. Well, most of them, some we can't really talk about and you probably already know about them anyway. So let's go be fake hippies for a few days and then be obnoxious by talking about what an A-Mazing time we had for the rest of the year. Here's Your Official Coachella 2011 Weekend Party Guide!
