God that Spicy Pie was everything and more that I hoped it would be. I think that's another reason why Coachella has lost a bit of it's appeal with me.

There's probably an equal number of positives and negatives for Premier and Wildhorse. They both have shuttles, food and spacious campsites. The line to get into Wildhorse this year was tiny in comparison to Premier, however if you're in Wildhorse I don't think there's any way to get into the Gorge grounds on Thursday night to get a wristband, so you'd be waiting in a line Friday morning that would equal the campground line you missed by not being in Premier. I think the deciding factor for me is that Wildhorse sounds a lot quieter and the crowd is more mature. In Premier I still fell asleep and woke up to dubstep every day, it just wasn't quite as loud as it would have been in General.

Dr. Garbanzo, I am sorry to hear that. You will be missed!

I feel like some people must have had really shitty spots. I never have any issue going to sleep at Sasquatch. By the end of the day I am so tired that I just pass out. I also heard hardly any dubstep in the campgrounds except for the Red Bull stage. The people around us were playing Caribou, Beta Band, and Daniel Johnston. And the hamburger I had from the campground stand was delicious. I partied hard every day this year but never stayed up much past 3:00 because I wanted to keep raging the next day.

You can take your car in and out of wildhorse, and we drove audrey's car over to general once during the weekend, so you can get over there. Also I got my wristband at the tent nearest the entrance on Friday afternoon after the gates had opened and I didn't wait at all.

Interesting. All we saw Friday morning were a couple wristband lines that would have probably taken at least an hour to get through. Didn't know there was another line. We went to the tent by the general campground food area on Thursday night and had zero wait, then felt pretty smug in the morning when it seemed like everyone else was in a line.

The people on drugs late at night aren't the loud and obnoxious assholes. It's the college kids wearing neon that only drink all weekend that are up late screaming and blasting music. The druggies are too busy giggling in their camp chairs or wandering around on explorations.

This is true. The problem with District 9 isn't drugs - in fact, there were awesome drugs at Wild Horse, and it was a virtual barter economy of drugs - the problem with District 9 is 20 year olds who don't care about being nice to everyone else, they just want to show how loud and awesome they can be. Wild Horse just has this communal atmosphere. Nobody litters, nobody pukes on your tent, nobody blasts Skrillex outside your tent at 5am. We just eat and drink and make love.

This sounds kind of wonderful.

Eat, Drink, Make Love sounds like a much better book title.

Those would be two excellent science fiction books

Have you seen 'Gentlemen Broncos' before? I think you'd like it.

I'm thinking Wildhorse for the following reasons:

a) neither my fiancee or me do drugs, but we don't care if other people do
b) I enjoy sleep, especially if it's sandwiched between days of non-stop music. I don't appreciate people partying loudly at all hours of the night unless I'm one of them. No chance of a 3am dubstep wake-up call is worth the additional price alone
c) The shuttle.
d) It just sounds more laidback and less refugee camp. I've done district 9 (at a few different fests) and while it's a blast, it takes it's toll. If I'm driving 14hrs each way and using a week of vacation, I'd like to be able to sleep when I want to sleep.
e) The option to leave with my vehicle to run into town is a big bonus, as is the option to get rowdy in General.
f) It would be a new experience, and I think it would be a good way to gradually introduce my better half to the multi-day festival experience.

I stayed at Wildhorse again this year and I LOVE IT. We stayed up each night and drank beer and listened to music until 2am or so, popped in some earplugs and still got a good nights sleep. Plus the showers are an added bonus. Hot water, outdoors, clean and relatively short lines. Finally, the people that run that place actually care about your well being and are unbelievably nice and accommodating.
