The festival itself was a blast – though the crowd was cooler on Saturday when Daft headlined than it was for Sunday’s Rage Against the Machine lecture…err, I mean performance. It’s clear that the Vegoose organizers have studied the much-lauded Coachella festival closely – the look, the set-up, the feel, the overall vibe at the festival was a dead ringer for Coachella. (The warm weather and gorgeous natural setting at Vegoose were quite Coachella-esque as well.) The only thing that kept me from thinking I was actually at Coachella was that the line-up at Vegoose overall could not match Coachella’s stellar music programming. This fact didn’t stop loads of cool kids from coming out however, as evidenced by my photos below.
