I know, I know. What could be a more overdone topic than Coachella? Each spring, our disdain and contempt for the Palm Springs music festival known as ‘chella finds its way back into the conversation. My friend Grace and I once spent a day in 2016 acting on social media as if we were at Coachella, pointing at random NYC street objects (a street light, a trash can, a crumpled up newspaper), which we then turned into a band name. For example, we would speak in our best Valley girl voices and say into the camera, “Checking in from ‘chella! We’re so excited to see Lamp Post’s set, but first we have V.I.P for Crumpled Paper.” It was funny to us, and maybe three other people who watched our Instagram stories.
