And, this old punk rocker can deal with insane mob scenes.

Hmm. It was hard enough to shove our bodies into the masses to see the Chemical Brothers, never mind the goddess that is Madonna...and I like the Chemical Brothers much more than I like her

Why do I feel so young?

Eh. If it were someone I really cared about, that'd be one thing. But I'm just not that much of a Madonna fan.

I'm considering going just to see her.

However, it would be better if I just wait a month and see her on her new concert tour.

I think what excites me about Madonna at Coachella is that, you KNOW she is going to do a unique set. It will be very different from the multi-media extravaganza she puts on during her tour. She may even be DJing rather than "performing". Who knows, but the surprise is half the fun here. Join us, Zap. We've had a great time several years in a row.

I would but since M.A. is on the same day and I want to see Madonna in concert the following month, I should probably pass on Coachella. I'll go next year.

What would have been cool is if she just showed up as a surprise guest. The problem with announcing the appearance is that droves of Madonna fans are going to be showing up expecting to see her play a usual set and are going to foul up the vibe of the overall experience.

To me, she sticks out like a sore thumb in this group. (This is definitely not a commentary on Madonna - I enjoyed the one time I have seen her and would like to go again. I think it was a bad decision on the part of the Coachella organizers.)

So? Did anyone go? I'm totally in the dark with any bands of a recent vintage, but I am interested in hearing about it.

Well, due to circumstances, we had to skip day 2, but we were at the first day. It was great. Wonderfully hot, but we were smart and didn't kill ourselves. The highlights for mere were The Zutons, The Juan Maclean, the little bit of Derrick Carter we caught, Franz Ferdinana, and ending the day with Daft Punk was spectacular.

Unfortunately, the organizers got stupid regarding taffic flow between last year and this. Last year, we were able to out of the parking lot with zero problem, 20 minutes at worst. This year? It took us over an hour to go, oh, the 100 yards to the exit. It was ridiculous. Don't know what they changed, but damn.
