Notes:

More kudos to my Coachella Crew; DJ Froyd, Doc Z, and EK. For our third straight year, we came, we saw, we listened, and we got really messed up. Oh, we also taped a few things. Decided to get a "taste" of Rage, so about 20 minutes or so before they started, we waded into the ocean of mass humanity that was the RATM crowd. Can't say exactly how many hundreds of feet we ended up away from the right stacks, but the sound quality here is better than you might think. In between songs you can hear some background bass noise from an adjacent dj stage, but it's not overwhelming by any means. Not being an aficionado of Rage, they certainly have a message and it is powerful.....loud, damn loud, and clear. One that I remember from back in '92. Hoping that the full set comes out for the diehards, but for now, here is what I can provide. With headphones, you may hear some interesting side comments from some of the crowd nearby. Overheard after the finish of "Bullet In The Head," "Just victims of the in-house drive-by? Wow.....put up the white flag." All told, another epic experience at Coachella '07. Enjoy.
