![]() One thing both articles fail bring up is how music in both the underground and mainstream is rife with nepotism. ![]() Haven’t seen a comment on here or Lo Pie about the bands YSL picked suck. However, if you’re a doctor on-call, or parents talking to the babysitter (short chat). We pay exorbitant prices for tickets these days for most concerts & a Chatty Kathy is surely NOT appreciated. If the person doesn’t comply with our wishes, I get up, & go to the lobby to ask for a manager to come talk to this rude person or even remove them from their seat. I turn around & ask them to take their conversation to the lobby as it’s annoying, rude & ruining the concert for everyone around them & we don’t care particularly to hear thier soliloquy about their life right now & to please take their conversation to the lobby, & when they come back, I ask them to put their phones on vibrate. Their conversations can go on upwards of 30* minutes. ![]() I have had this happen at numerous concerts (& I think I got the flow of the conversation right). Sometimes they go on about flight arrangements & either talk about what a good deal they got or complain about the cost of their flight & hotel ((geez, you would think these people would check Travelocity, Trip Advisor or Kayak, etc.). Lastly they go on & on about their plans for the weekend & name every individual that will be there. Then they talk about the cute guy (or girl) they hope to meet & their strategy for doing so or share with all of us about what’s going on with their boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse/partner. Then they go on to what they did that day, who was a pain in their ass at work or how bad their professor or class assignment sucks, traffic congestion on the road home from work or school or whertever, where they went to dinner,before the concert & what they ate & act like they are food critics & their opinion counts for something. Then they talk & talk about the concert, how bad or good traffic was getting there, complain about how expensive parking was 3 block away & talk as if walking 3 blocks is killing them, & express their disappointment loudly when their seat isn’t where they thought it was. It makes me cringe when some dumb chick or opiniated redneck dude (I love in Texas – a lot of those around) behind me gets a number of phone calls back & forth with friends (or worse – their mother or other family memberr. Y’all forgot the idiots who don’t put their phones on mute on vibrate. My 2 Pet Peeves: Ringing Phones & Their Ensuing Conversation!!! Plus, you can buy your ticket for next year knowing that Beyonce will be back and ready to put on a great show in 2018. ![]() Radiohead, Gaga, and Kendrick are three of the best in their respective genres, and the undercard has lots of great gems (Royksopp, The Avalanches, Empire of the Sun, Tycho, Banks, Phantogram, Glass Animals, Bon Iver, Schoolboy Q, The Martinez Brothers). I was excited to see Beyonce (because I’d never pay 150 bucks to go to her show but would love to have her play on the Coachella field) and I’m excited for the energy Gaga is gonna bring too. And Gaga is 100 percent a worthy replacement. If you don’t want your ticket, you can sell it, probably even at a profit if you’re a dick (but that’s some bad karma), and if you’re still game to go, investigate the lineup and discover some really great artists. To those that were going to a three day music festival for one act, you should save your money and buy really great seats next time she comes to town. A music festival is great (and Coachella is the best of the ones I’ve been to) because it has a lot of music to offer you and gives you a place to get down without having to worry about going to work the next morning. Feedback is greatly appreciated!!Īs someone who has been making the pilgrimage for over ten years, one headliner changing is not going to ruin your weekend. I think I just want validation for what I did or to be told this was stupid and shouldn’t have happended. I know I shouldn’t have done it and should have just put up with him being in front of me but just got so annoyed. I feel really bad for doing it and keep thinking about it now. I apologised and explained why I did it, he continued to be angry but calmed down eventually. It caused a bit of an issue with the people he was with, one of which got really angry at me. I then stepped in front of him and tried to push him back. He made some comment about being gifted for being tall and said he wouldn’t move. I asked him if he could move back to where he was as I couldn’t see anything now (he was really close and fully in front of me). But, after the last support act, one of the guys (6ft something) casually walked to the side and stood in front of me. A group stood next to us shortly after and were fine throughout the support acts. Got there a decent time and found a good spot.
