coachella!

oh my. it was fabulous...

the festival was so cool. i met some very great folks...

kattie, nick, and matt

(perhaps the funniest people i've met in a very long time)

tony and nick

kattie, sara, and me

and saw some incredible music.

...tallest man on earth...

...bright eyes (there's conor on the big screen)...

...mumford & sons (also on the big screen)...

and other bands as well... the rural alberta advantage, titus andronicus, the black keys, delta spirit, arcade fire, phosphorescent...

... and, of course, the felice brothers. so amazing! judging by the number of photos here, you might think that the set lasted about a week.

(conor oberst made a guest appearance)

i was right up front as usual and before the show started, ian pointed at me and wiggled his fingers to show me that he was using his picks again.

i had a fantastic trip. i am spending the night in a hotel in flagstaff, az tonight and will be home tomorrow. i can't wait to see glenn and the girls!
