Coachella related question

[joethelion]

so...

long story short - no one in my family never really got around to getting me anything for my birthday last week. my dad sort of jokingly said that he'd let me go to Coachella

but I think that if I plan everything out, he'll foot the bill

what I wanted to know is:

is it worth getting one of the VIP packages? and is there like a better hotel to go to than others in the area? I really just don't want to hassel with getting up early and whatnot just to fight a traffic jam

and Coachella doesn't seem to be sold out... is it?
