Coachella 2012, order now!

Glastonbury now sells out the day tickets go on sale months before any line-up is announced so that's well precedented in the festival world. The duplicate festival is a new twist that should be interesting to see how it works out. I suppose where in the past you might have to agonize over a scheduling conflict, now you can go both times and see what you missed the first time around.

Heehee, this is crazy. EDC was one of our best times ever, though you'd have to set the way-back machine for 1999. What's the venue like these days?

I'm not shocked that they sell tix before the bands are booked. If I had the cash (and no baby) I'd be there every day of the festival, every year, regardless. Just being there is amazing, and discovering fantastic music by wandering around is part of the joy of it.

The duplicate weekend has me wondering what I would do...go for the first weekend when the feeling is fresh, or the second, when the sound is sure to be better? Sound is quite often an issue, but to think that it would be a bit rehearsed is kind of a bummer. I like Chris' idea of going to both so you can see EVERYTHING.
