The Finals are here! The last two contenders: The Good the Bad and the Queen at Coachella, and Justice at the Metro. I'll make it quick, like ripping off a band aid..that way it'll leave more room for my winning-show content!
Of course the winner is THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE QUEEN!

It was perfect; the sun long gone, the heat finally dissipating on my second day at Coachella. The whole festival was amazing; my first trip to the west coast...which is like Mars... my first time camping at a festival..and the biggest first.. seeing Damon Albarn perform live!
Not only did I get to see Damon, but Paul Simonon from the Clash!
It was like a dream, the wind whipping around the bunting stage decorations, and Damon's jacket flapping in the breeze....the melodica solos, the violinists, the snazzy dance movements by Paul!
It definitely was the highlight of Coachella, and of 2007. They went on really late so there was a bit of an eerie vibe with the mountains in the back. I was squashed up at the front and had lost Kirstin and Jim, but it was worth the trip to California for sure. (The video isn't mine, the pictures are)
