LULZ at Catherine Sun Chips. Stamper are you changing your custom title to "can't get better than this" or #bestboyfriendever?
Burrito - I heard at little Refused just to say I had but hated it. This is coming from someone who listened to punk exclusively from 12 - 16. It was not good for me. Also, THERE WAS A PIECE OF PLASTIC IN MY BURRITO - the funnel of the hot sauce bottle.
I loved this entire weekend. I'm so glad that everyone had such an amazeballs time! I'm a Coachella attendee for life!
P.S. I think it is safe to say that all that money was spent on the creation of the hologram not on Em showing up?

Which burritos are you talking about? I had one of the breakfast burritos at the farmers market every morning. They were life savers.
For those at Miike Snow, who was the girl who came out during Black Sheep? I thought it was Lykke Li, but not positive. Like Cat said, the only thing playing on the screen was a beating heart.
haha, totally just remembered a great interaction I had with Pea after M83. We were both headed in different directions when I spotted him and shouted "Pea" to which he responds "SEXY SAX SOLO", and then we air saxed real hard for a few seconds and then went our separate ways. Fuck I love Coachella.

The burritos in the venue. I idiotically didn't go to the Farmer's Market. No clue what I was thinking. Next year - FOR SURE.

In an interview, Digital Domain’s chief creative officer Ed Ulbrich drove home the fact that the hologram was a fresh creation and not simply a projection of found footage. “To create a completely synthetic human being is the most complicated thing that can be done,” Ulbrich said. “This is not archival footage. This is an illusion. This is the beginning. Dre has a massive vision for this.”
...
What Dre’s “vision” is remains hazy, though there are already rumors that the Tupac hologram could be part of a larger tour. It would make sense for Dre to keep it going, since the project was estimated to have cost well over $100,000. And who is to say Eazy-E won’t show up when Coachella does it all over again this coming weekend?

DOPE.
Yeah, Womp. I wanted to go there but always freaking forgot. I'm bummed about that, considering it was like in my backyard. I am glad that it was awesome.
IT WAS Lykke Li with Miike Snow. =) People with double letter stage names gotta stick together.
Also, I forgot to say that The Black Keys were rad. They were. The crowd was uncomfortably packed with <18 year olds and I was sandwiched but when I finally got room to boogie it was wonderful and they made it happen. Loved it.

Can we please talk about how this was the best weekend of my life? It certainly was.
Top 5
Snoop, Dre, Wiz Khalifa, 50 Cent, Tupac, Eminem Radiohead Bon Iver (Yes, yes, I know #pretentiousdouche) Florence + the machine Santigold
Although our campsite was lacking in terms of jungle juice, we made do (#popovscrewdrivers), and the company was incomparable. Stamper (#itdoesntgetanybetterthanthis), Cat (#afteryourtapface…refresh), Ro-ro (#toodrunktotalklikeanadultchella), Zeph (#abouttopunchlaxinthethroat), and our beautiful neighbors (#whyyesI’lltakethatwater) all made my life this weekend. Shout out to everyone that we got to meet up with, it was short but sweet. I’ll be out of the game for a little while, but I look forward to #moreofthischella in the future.

"Mother fuck Dre, mother fuck Snoop, mother fuck Death Row! Yo here comes my left blow!"

Whatever, Ro. Every burrito I had was fucking incredible! The food at Coachella is the tastiest stuff on earth. Somehow I managed to gain like 3 pounds over the weekend, despite walking a million miles. That Spicy Pie. Oh man...

Coachella food is LEAPS AND BOUNDS beyond Sasquatch food. Surprise of the weekend: Eating delicious marinated Tempeh wrap and DELICIOUS Indian food without getting sick. Spicy Pie is also a Coachella legend for a reason. Yay. The speakeasy was also awesome! I LOVE INDIO.
Next year I'm not buying anything besides water and booze, I think. A lot of food was wasted.
P.S. Still wouldn't eat a burrito outside of Farmer's Market though without inspection. Make your own!

It almost looked like there was shredded green paper in mine. Needless to say that thing didn't last long.

For the record, I'm only speaking of the breakfast burritos sold by the "Breakfast & Burgers" stand. They were absolutely phenomenal.

Filled with egg and hasbrowns and bacon and cheese, definitely the best way to start the day. I only had that and the crab garlic mayo fries all weekend. Next time I wanna sample way more of the food.
