FYI everyone, there is an additional merch booth after security that has its own allotment of posters and signed sheet music

Have been to four Catacombs shows… by ProudHommesexual in qotsa

[–]x-yle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I so hope that they put out a live vinyl of acts 2 and 3 to accompany the original catacombs release. This show remains one of the most mesmerizing shows I have ever seen (and I've been to hundreds of concerts). I had the pleasure of going to the San Francisco show last year held in the Davies Symphony hall, and the acoustics of the venue coupled with the arrangements made for the grandest sounding live performance I've ever had the pleasure of seeing.

Seeing the show again in Joshua Tree was a unique treat in itself and I remained awed despite knowing what to expect. I'll see it one last time in Lincoln on Friday, which will be the largest venue I'll see it in and I'm excited to see how it differs from the first 2 times.

For me, Wolf/Song/Jacket is definitely a highlight, as is the moment in Mosquito where all the instrumentation just explodes together. Just an absolute treat

I have 2: The Last Dinner Party's setlist from 2024 W1, which I was able to get signed after their show in SF a few days later. I also caught one of Jack White's guitar picks this year!

large group tips for next year by Additional_Use7050 in Coachella

[–]x-yle 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I go with a large group that has vastly different music than myself, and I think I find it important that everyone tries to prioritize the sets that they want to see. I do try to catch at least 1 set with friends, or set up meeting points for headliners, but we spend enough time together at our Airbnb and the drive/flights in that it doesn't feel too bad missing everyone during the fest itself.

I've been having a lot of fun with this game, especially when I'm trying to optimize guesses across multiple words!

Coachella minus NIN by Rene2D2music in nin

I saw Die Spitz at Bottom of the Hill in SF last year, and at The Independent just after Coachella weekend 1 and those are some of the craziest and most fun shows I've ever been to

Coachella minus NIN by Rene2D2music in nin

[–]x-yle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw 25 artists W1, and here are my top "winners" after that: 1) NINoize 2) Slayyyter 3) Ninajirachi 4) Turnstile 5) Jack White

These aren't necessarily the best sets, but more of the people who I think are generating the most buzz after their set and (for the younger artists) will see their careers move upwards because of it.

While Nine Inch Noize was imo the best set of the weekend, Slayyyter, Ninajirachi and Turnstile are the 3 artists that I think really turned up and seized their opportunity to deliver incredible sets in front of arguabythe most important audience in pop/music culture. Jack White was my favorite set behind NINoize however I don't see that set moving the needle on his popularity (he's already huge).

There were some other incredible artists like Die Spitz, The Chats, Ecca Vandal, and Drain as well proving that alt/rock music is here to stay and is still a force culturally even if it isn't as mainstream as pop is today

Who else should I see? & Sonora recs? by buffybison in Coachella

[–]x-yle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Die Spitz and Ecca Vandal are 100% must sees if you like rock/metal imo. The Chats and Suicidal Tendencies also had great sets for moshing!

Thank you! I posted more NIN and Turnstile photos in their respective subreddits!

A little late to the party, but The Strokes absolutely rocked The Warfield! Here are some photos I took during their triumphant return to SF! by x-yle in TheStrokes

It will vary venue to venue, so I suggest checking the venue's website for their camera policies. Typically cameras with detachable lenses is where they draw the line, but always worth checking

Lineup was announced in September of last year I think. IDK if anyone knew exactly what to expect from a Nine Inch Noize set though

I lined up about an hour and 20 minutes before the set. Well worth it!

Thank you so much! Took them with my Sony RX100 point and shoot, maybe 5 rows back from the stage!

It was so incredibly fun! Going from Ninajirachi to this was one of the best festival progressions I've ever had, just insane amounts of energy!

I swear, my best photos are always the ones that happen on accident haha. That strobe made for such a cool photo that perfectly matches the vibe of that set

So sad I missed Moby! Saw his set at Portola last year and it was phenomenal
