The ironic mustache and greasy hair rock set will be out of town this weekend, frying their goods off in puddles of teenager sweat in the desert like a bunch of hippies at a far-off Phish show. Yeah, clearly we're bitter we're not at Coachella, but are delighted the beer we buy will be less than $7 a cup, as we stew over our Manu Chao, Rage Against the Machine, Ghostface, and Sonic Youth LPs. Don't worry friends, not only will all the good stuff make it to youtube, but there's plenty of dirty fun to be had in town. We're pumped about Found Magazine's Dirty party this Friday, where they will showcase the kinkiest, naughtiest 'found' multi-media art from across the globe. Sunday's AT&T Cinco de Mayo jam might be a premature, corporate-sponsored gig, but the ranchera-cumbia-salsa-eclectic-mariachi-reggaeton talent representing will be have us rejoicing that we still don't know the difference between Arctic Monkeys and Arcade Fires.
