I'm home and I'm tired and I'm depressed. Musically speaking that was by far the best festival experience I've ever had. Amazing quality all around. I'll post some highlights after I sleep for the next 20 hours.

On behalf of nater, drew, womp, davers, kymess, pea megatronand everyone else at the A5 speakers..... shit was lost Awesome. Unrelated: I'm actually kind of excited to see what kind of show Simian Mobile Disco puts on, I have a feeling they would be a blast as well. I checked out SMD for a bit, but left after a while because I got bored. A little too repetitive with the same snare drum build ups and break downs. It was like a shitty Chemical Bros without a good light set up and no song progression.

They went in to some serious Modeselektor-type vibes later in that set that I couldn't stop watching from home! Maybe not your cup of tea, but I thought it was a great set.

Alright magic coachella fairies, I'm super drunk, watching the coachella stream and wishing as hard as I can. WHY AREN'T I THERE YET!?! Plus I keep getting very intriguing texts from people who are there, like "This World" and "ACIIIIIID". In short, the tooth fairy isn't real. I am responsible for at least one of those texts, and I think I know the culprit of the other one.

Hot Chip sounds surprisingly good! I would be losing my shit if I was there. Fuck. On behalf of nater, drew, womp, davers, kymess, pea megatronand everyone else at the A5 speakers..... shit was lost Shit was SO LOST during Hot Chip. It was the best campsite meetup/dance party of the weekend. Vampire Weekend a close second. Lisztomania could have won if anyone but nater had shown up, because I lost all the shits.

Nater/Drew liztomania dance parties (campsite AND at the show) were both fucking awesome. Drew has some killer interpretive dancing skills... wut. Hot Chip was SO FUCKING FUN. Oh and Passion Pit!!! God you fuckers are fun.

Oh shit... or randomly running into kymess at Puscifer. I was a bit late from being way too shitfaced (beer pong champs, what) and lost ALL THE THINGS right before Puscifer... ran around the festival forever looking for my locker key (retracing your steps at coachella when shitfaced... redic), went back to the lockers and someone had returned it! Anyway... I slither my to a great location and BAM.. kymess is right next to me rocking out. And then our neighbors were randomly there too! I love that shit.

Hahahaha our neighbors were pretty great. Although the first night Drew almost lost his shit having to listen to them play their guitars. WHY SO MOODY DREW?
I thought kymess was going to rob me when I ran into her in the sandstorm.

I thought kymess was going to rob me when I ran into her in the sandstorm. I just hate when dudes bring their guitars and sing songs at the campground during music festivals or parties. I was being salty. But they proved themselves to be some cool ass canadian bros. We'll always miss you, The Lumineers.

Yes that was a terrible inside joke. There was a big dude with a beard and who visited us a few times who I named Of Monsters And Men because everybody gets a nickname.

It all started with me shit-talking a couple of dudes roaming through the campground, only to find out an hour later that they were our camp mates. They were rad. All of their guitars ended up either getting stolen or run over by cars by the end of the weekend. Rock and fucking roll.
