The thing about Coachella that is different from many other big open events
is its proximity to nothing. Having been down there during the festival a
couple years ago, I noted then that the locals, for the most part, don’t
like the big crowds that clog the roads to the desert... they aren’t
beneficial for the local economy. Other events like Mod Week make money for
the locals. It isn’t Austin which counts on the money that SXSW brings in.
