I think its time Stereogum gets their own festival (and I'm not talking about curating a night at SXSW.) It wouldn't have to be huge or expansive like Pitchfork but I think you guys could put together a solid lineup. The only reason I say this is because I get what you're saying when you're excited about Animal Collective and Grizzly Bear and then I get what you're saying when you're excited about Thorns of Life and Torche.

I guess I shouldn't complain about the opportunity to win 3 VIP tics to Coachella this year, but I couldn't help but notice the last bullet point in the fine print - 'winners will be notified 3-5 days before the event' - so that means if I entered, and didn't already plan on being in Indio, CA, I'd have 3-5 days to book plane tickets and possibly a hotel? When you're flying from the other side of the country, with that short a time-frame, that can be extremely pricey - but like I said, I shouldn't complain about the chance to win VIP tics - just seems like you'd be spending just as much, if not more, just to get there in the unlikely event you did win (at least for an East Coaster like me).
