For the rest of us not at Coachella . . .

Ok - so you didn't get the way too expensive tickets to bake in the desert sun on the Empire Polo Fields in Coachella Valley.  You also can't bear to watch it on the AT&TBlueRoom due to the sketchy skippy video on your dsl which is comparable to dial-up speed when streaming anything.  That leaves watching Prince on Leno, or Ernie Halter at Avalon,  the English Beat at Harvelle's (Redondo Beach) if your feeling the need for 80s Ska,  Jackie Greene if you happen to be in Pittsburg, PA.
or if you lucky enough to be living or traveling in the Fairfield, Conneticut area check out Bomb Squad for a free, yes FREE show at the Field.

Or you can sit in front of your computer with no shirt on trying to decipher who is playing and make out what they are singing . . . in your "rockin concert in the Blue Room" . . .

Realistically, you will troll around myspace for a few hours racking your brain on what to do or who to see . . . then after checking your gmail account get wisked away to your facebook page by your friends offering you a beer while thinking, "yeah, a real beer sounds good right about now".  So another 2 hours past before you peel yourself away and pour a bowl of lucky charms only to realize your out of milk

So get up, get some milk and while your at it more beer, and be grateful your not baking in the desert heat, sitting in traffic for 6 hours on the 10 freeway trying to get home.  You can buy the dvd in 3 months for a fraction of the cost and get better coverage . . .


and umm no, I am not even in the slightest bitter about not being there . . . no really, I'm not.
