performs at the Mojave Tent during day 2 of the 2017 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival (Weekend 2) at the Empire Polo Club on April 22, 2017 in Indio, California.
Everyone has an opinion on Coachella. You don’t need to actually go to Coachella to have an opinion about Coachella, whether you hold the position that it’s a fun cultural moment or that it’s a sign of our inexorable slide toward corporate rot. Maybe it’s both! (The one time I went, a decade ago, I had a pretty good time.) This year’s first Coachella weekend is in the books, and the next one kicks off in two days. That means lots of opinions are flying around, and one of them comes from Reggie Watts, the comedian and musician. Watts has been onstage at Coachella more than once. He does not like it.
