Here are some photos from Coachella Music & Arts Festival:
My friend in our tent. It was absolutely tiny weeny! We had to use our big bags as pillows but that meant that our feet stuck out the end of the tent. Oh well. How snuggly can you get!
Dancing whilst drinking vodka and absinthe on Thursday night during the Laserium!
BIG RIG JIG! Ooh, how I loved thee, Big Rig Jig
This thing was raaaaather cool, you just bang and hit everything so it makes a tremendous noise but sounds rather musical. A few of the drums were broken by the Sunday but it was all good
The Tesla Coils were zip zapping away, see them in action here:
Not my video, but it gives you an idea!
The Do LaB:
The Do LaB was so damn cool, just a constant party! Whoosh! Lucent Dossier performed three times daily at the Do LaB and were so damn cool!
Here's a video of the Do LaB in action (again, not my video BUT SO BE IT!)
My friend and I liked to drink coffee and sit underneath the bamboo waves at night, as it got cold >_<
and I found this photo of us on the interwebz:
More shiney lights! I love my shiney lights
There was a happy congregation of people singing and dancing in the campground on Sunday night:
I'll upload a video when I can be bothered!
It's such a beatiful place. How amazing are the sunsets there?
I loved this little guy:
The treehouse was really damn fun It looked like it was singing either an angelic "aaah!" or a monster-style RAWRRR!!

And now for some photos of STUFF:
^^ Fatboy Slim
The Main Stage:
And then I saw Death Cab for Cutie at the main stage! They were sooooo good!
Kraftwerk - they were totally awesome. I now love The Man Machine. Machine machine machine machine machiiiiine!
Portishead were eerie and totally blown-away-y and fantastic... Love love love!
Enter Shikari were really cool, it's a shame hardly anyone else was there because their slot clashed with Prince (yes, Prince!) so everyone had gone to the main stage. They played some good songs, though!
Hordes of people at Coachella:
CO, CO, COACHELLA! CO, CO, COACHELLA! CO, CO, COACHELLA!
