I went and saw this last night at sort of the last minute. It was pretty decent, some parts better then others but perhaps not worth the $12.50 ticket. It does make me want to go to the festival sometime.
Looking up ticket information and such it looks like it would be about a $800 trip. $400 for a plane ticket and $200 for two nights in Indio, California. Then there is the price of a two day pass which I might potentially get waived with a media coverage pass. Of course the price of the room could be cheaper if other people went also. That would be the month after Miami so that might not even be possible.
Perhaps I won't do any trip internationally until next year since there's still so much stuff I want to go to and people I want to visit stateside this year.
Has anyone else been to Coachella?
