Inspired by the ever popular Instagram pages Overheard LA and Overheard New York, I am here to proudly present Overheard Coachella. I went undercover at the festival to eavesdrop on some attendees’ conversations and compiled a few of their best quotes into this article. While I only heard one sentence from these conversations while I was passing by them, I’m very curious to know what the context of these conversations were.
Girl on the phone heading towards the festival entrance in a sing-song voice: “Sooooo change of plans, Franny Fran.”
Guy in the parking lot talking to his group of bros: “Yeah man, I know Ariana on a personal level.”
Guy: “Last weekend was amazinnnnnnng.”
Security guard: “You guys got pizza? Oh hellllllll yeah.”
Guy: “Alcohol. Where is the alcohol. I need alcohol.”
Girl heading to Kacey Musgraves’ set: “Who’s playing next? Kacey Muskrat?”
Girl riding her bike on dirt path leading straight to the parking lot: “Idk where to go from here.”
Guy: “Yeaaaaaah me neither.”
Girl: “Ahhhh I love our life.”
