Coachella has the potential to be like a Comic-Con for people who really like music, expensive food, and giant trippy sculptures.My absolute go-to for the entire weekend was the plant-based options from Olivia in Los Angeles' Koreatown and Wolfie's Hot Chicken or cocktails from Block Party, located in Highland Park, California.They're actually called "The Messengers," created by Sri Lankan artist Kumkum Fernando inspired by the colors of South Asian folklore, art, and architecture, especially of the Hindu and Tibetan temples.Everything was more expensive, including lodging, transportation, and buying resale tickets.
It's easier to snag a last-minute ticket to the second weekend and catch all the same artists minus a few surprise guests and save your coin.Not knocking anyone's hustle, but if your only reason for spending an exuberant amount of money on Coachella is to get a picture in front of the Ferris wheel, I'm praying for you.
You have over 150 artists to choose from, and you only saw two because you waited four hours to eat lukewarm LA sushi in 95-degree weather.Nile, responsible for dozens of hits over the decades, also performed at Coachella in 2018 with Chic.It's rare for an artist to bring out multiple performers, especially several who've performed their own sets before at previous Coachella's and know how to captivate the festival crowd.Bad Bunny and Post Malone experience audio difficulties at #Coachella.Fortunately, weekend two has enough time to look at what worked and what didn't work the first time and make adjustments.
