Some of you more delicate types better get your head mashed down tight.  The Southern California desert is hardcore.  No one in Southern California gives a damn about anything except getting loaded.  All the weed is Bhudda, all the blow is fishscale, and all the acid is titrated.  People swill booze.  You need to know what you are doing out there.

Where yinz staying?  I vote for Cucamonga, man.  Cuca-fucking-monga.  They won't let people like us near Palm Springs.  America is still a segregated society, where full-on geeks control the flow of commerce.  We don't have our man Trump in the White House just yet.

This is it.  Probably your last chance to see the Stones, the WHO, Dylan and Neil Young together.  Time is inexorable in its passage.

This is the All-World bash.  Victory party.  We won, and now we're spiking the football with a giant ass bash.

This is the biggest event ever.  Bigger than those cultural/nationalistic pride performances the Germans used to do in the 40s.  We top even those.

The Score.  After this, we will all know The Score.

Considerations:

Individual shows are $199 for General admission, that's standing behind all the seats, only looking at and being able to see TV screens.

Seats for the 3 day event start at $699 for the rear of the seated section.

Hotel for a place that isn't a total dump would probably run at least $600 for a 3 night stay....and that would probably be at least 20 miles away. Living about 100 miles from the site I wouldn't want to drive home after the last night.

For me personally, I've seen the Stones, Young and Who all within the last year and Macca in 2014.

....so, I think I'm good (by not going)....If the Stones play an arena show In California, Vegas or Phoenix, I would probably go to at least one of those.

Good one.  If you want to dodge saying your spouse won't let you go, or Burger King won't give you the time off, blame it on the earthquake predicted for October.

I'm assuming the Stones are playing the first night so their massive rig can be used by the other bands the other 2 nights? (for a fee....lol). Though they would have held out for Saturday night closing??

I'm Gold Medallion on Delta and won't stay anywhere without a mini-bar.

Don't rule Desert Trips out guys.  A lot can change between now and October.  Maybe your spazz genes will mutate to cool ones in the interim!

Why? Makes no difference whether they close on Saturday or Friday..or Sunday.

I suppose the running order depends on how it fits in with each act's touring schedule.

As its a festival event, they'd be using the festival's own stage - not their own. (their own American tour in and around this show may well otherwise be an arena tour, we dont know yet)

I think the Stones took the Friday to get top billing on the poster.
