Psst! You Can Catch All the Coachella Action Without Selling a Kidney

You can watch this weekend's hottest show in the comfort of your home.

Unless you are comfortable with the fact that, technically, you don’t necessarily need both of your kidneys, then getting a ticket to a popular artist is basically impossible these days. Just ask Taylor Swift fans. Or fans of The Cure. Or Beyoncé. Or Bruce Springsteen. 

If you scored a ticket for any of them, you either got really lucky or resigned yourself to hitting up a so-called “secondary market” site like StubHub and shelling out for the equivalent of a mortgage payment.

Tickets for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival tend to sell out instantly, sometimes before the line-up and headliners are even announced. (Some cranky people who miss the days when the festival was headlined by the likes of alt-rock figureheads Nine Inch Nails and Radiohead might complain that the current audience is more interested in the vibe and getting photos for social media, but that’s probably unfair. It’s a free country and people can like what they like.)

If you couldn’t grab tickets but you’re curious to watch Frank Ocean’s first set in six years, Coachella will be streaming live this entire weekend on YouTube  (GOOGL) - Get Free Report.

As noted by Stereogum, there will be six separate YouTube livestreams available for this weekend’s festivities, each one dedicated to a particular stage. This year’s headliners include Frank Ocean, as well as Bad Bunny (the festivals first Spanish-language headliner) and K-Pop titans Blackpink. 

The bill also includes the surprise addition of Blink-182, who will be kicking off their “classic line-up” reunion tour now that Tom DeLonge is back in the band and Mark Hoppus has recovered from cancer. There’s also the supergroup boygenius, Rosalía, Björk, Charli XCX, Gorillaz, Burna Boy, the legendary Blondie, Yungblud, Wet Leg, Willow and a ton of DJs whose names I don’t recognize. So a bit of something for everyone, then, and you don’t even need to put on sunscreen to enjoy it.
