It’s been a long day for L.A. Witch. It’s the first day of the band’s new tour — but without a gig to show for it.

Sonically, Russian Circles, Eagles of Death Metal and Mastodon share little with each other. But Monday night at the Fillmore Auditorium, the three bands found common ground with a crowd of earnest, hungry music fans that greeted all three acts with enthusiasm.

Heat, dust, crowds, sweaty flower crowns: How can anyone possibly find Coachella romantic?

From luxury yurts to private jets to ridiculous festival couture, this is how the high rollers burn through their money at Coachella.

Hip-hop heads are constantly debating who reigns as the king of rap. It may have been all of the secondhand pot-smoke floating through Denver on 4/20, but after last night’s performance by the East Atlanta Santa aka Radric Davis aka Gucci Mane, there is no doubt: Gucci Mane is king.
