Coachella is always our favorite weekend of the year, but 2009 stepped it up several notches with our first IndiOasis party going off listening distance from the legendary polo fields. Where to begin. When not rocking out to DJs like Adam Freeland, Jus Ske, Jokers of the Scene and Skeet Skeet and quenching our bottomless thirst with beverages provided by Vitamin Water, Tito’s Vodka, Asahi Beer, Colt 45, Cafe Bustelo and Alize, we were getting fitted by Onitsuka Tiger, conducting interviews with iMeem and scoring phones from Pantech. Not to mention free ice cream from Coconut Bliss, organic food from The Green Truck, massages from the Sustainable Living Carnival and haircuts from The Kutting Room. Big thanks to The Good Life for lending a green hand, Loudcrowd for the givaway, and to all the partners and partiers who made IndiOasis a weekend to remember. See you all in 2010 for IndiOa2is.
DJ Mike B, Snowcone, Dam Funk and Sally Shapiro

Let’s talk Disco. Let’s talk …
