I took my obligatory wristband photo and posted it to Instagram, but there are far more exciting things happening in Indio tonight for the night before the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.

Gabe Real, an Inland favorite, returns to the Coachella Festival’s main stage on Saturday, but he’s already kicking things off in the Safari Tent area tonight.

Meanwhile, others are posting camping videos, photos and images from the always epic Filter Magazine party.
