Coachella 2007

My sister and I went to the first night of coachella this year. Bjork and Interpol were headlining so we were pretty much sold when we heard that, and then plus a day's worth of other cool bands. No way we were passing this up. Sadly it was too hot to try and push your way to the front, but all the bands were so good and so much fun. Well here are the pictures of our adventure in the 100 degree heat.

We got there just before 2:00pm:







KINGS OF COMEDY
Chris Hardwicke from the old Mtv show Singled out and some other guy I don't know, and of course Zach Galfianakis!




THE TENT
They had this wierd tent that wrapped in a circle and as you were walking through, it got smaller and smaller until you eventually had to crawl out. Once you made it out there was this branched dome circle in the middle with all these people sitting around smoking out. It was very hippie like. The tent was absolutley pointless but so much fun.








My sister and I melting...and I am wearing way too much eye shadow.
My eyes actually look like they started melting downwards...hmmmmmm.




Other cool stuff we saw:














Now for the bands, this is only a few of them that we saw(My camera wouldn't take clear pictures at night so most of the bands are on video):

SILVERSUN PICKUPS


we only stayed for one song with PEACHES (her sound was all screwed up)



JESUS AND MARY CHAIN




INTERPOL
(my favorite)




My camera died once Bjork came out (of course that would happen to me) so sadly I dont have those videos.

Other fun stuff we saw:






It was so much fun and worth it even with the disgusting heat!

My Island



If I was stuck on a deserted island the only thing I would need to survive is Bear Grylls!


For fun I would bring Dustin Penner!

Blue in the face

Another night goes by feeling comfortable. Not taking any risks, not feeling any real emotion. I have not expierenced my own truth in a long time. You are what your mind perceives! I think I gave up on myself along time ago.
I live in my dreamland and am comfortable. A wasted existence if I never believe in my own truth. My place here, my job, my purpose never truley recognized. If I cant allow myself to believe that I deserve my dreams and goals than why should any body else? I am frightened to fail, frightened that people won't credit me for trying and only see the failure in me. I have beaten them to the punch, I have seen the failure in myself before even trying. How do you get past that fear? Right now that controls me, no matter how hard I try to shake it. Therefore my life has stopped, and I sit in a comfort zone never moving anywhere, even if it was backwards.


There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting.
