...was out of this world!

HI everyone. I've been on a lengthy hiatus on here haven't I. *hides face in shame* This has been a sluggish semester, and I'm not sure why, but I'm doing what I can to remedy that. My missed deadlines are practically haunting me in my dreams. I gotta get my ass back to work.

In other news, I got home from Coachella W1 on Monday. 3 days of standing, open air concerts in the desert heat and an out-of-NOWHERE sandstorm on Sunday night takes its toll on you, but I'm recovering quickly from the dust inhalation (seriously, it sucked), muscle strains, crap ton of bruises and everything else. All worth it.

In total, we saw (in order):

The Neighborhood
Youth Lagoon
(part of) Dillon Francis
Metric
Of Monsters and Men
Beach House
(the end of) Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Blur
Tegan and Sara
Baauer
2 Chainz
Café Tacvba
Major Lazer
The xx
Phoenix
Jamie xx
Paul Kalkbrenner
Paul Oakenfold
Vampire Weekend
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Red Hot Chili Peppers


By far THE BEST sets were:

1. Major Lazer (surprise, right?)
2. Blur
3. The xx
4. Phoenix
5. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
6. Red Hot Chili Peppers

I arrived home and, after some rest, started drawing those first five. Some people are satisfied just looking at the photos they took, but no, not us - BECAUSE WE ARE ARTISTS. And I want to cartoon every damn band and DJ that blew my mind this weekend as a tribute. Or at least those top 5. Maybe the Chili Peppers. Maybe.

Brb, gonna go draw (for reals).
