And she wasn’t the only one rocking out. Opposite the anonymous fan, Them Crooked Vultures also were …

No wonder the post-sundown sets are so in demand at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival. Those seeing the main stage from afar Friday night might have thought a fire was rising out of the desert, as Them Crooked Vultures was flanked by dozens of perfectly arranged golden lights,

Them Crooked Vultures set their perch atop the Tabernacle last Thursday night.

In a music world that seems to be spitting out so called “supergroups” left and right, Them Crooked Vultures are circling and setting their gaze upon the dieing carcass of mainstream rock groups creating bland and uninspired rock and roll.
