New York Times Announces To World Palm Springs Is Cool Again.

Today, the Sunday (!!) New York Times did quite a nice write up on Palm Springs being in "demand" right now. You can read the full article  HERE.

One of the statements made in the article is that Coachella is responsible for bringing the most recent boom in development.

Funny enough, many of my posts have already addressed what was in the New York Times piece: the bits that perhaps a certain A-Lister who purchased a certain high profile home cemented the notion of making it "permissable" for others to follow, while the rumor of another A-Lister looking for a home and coupled with this article about the Hollywood "elite" pushing prices up just slammed Palm Springs to the front and center of the zeitgeist stage.

Palm Springs is officially a brand, and exploding y'all. 

Media spotlight on Palm Springs Part 2 + 3 coming up. 

Coachella, Elvis Presley + Anne Hathaway

First things first: Coachella kicks off today! 

The line up for today has everyone from OutKast to Bryan Ferry to Gabba Gabba Hey. 

For those poor souls that weren't able to get tickets, good news! 

For the first time ever, Coachella will be live streamed on youtube.  

(weekend 2 will have a diff live stream venue) 

While we're on the subject of music, a few days ago Elvis Presley's Honeymoon House was listed for a cool $9.5M! 

(Can we just have a moment to envision Elvis at Coachella??!)

I personally think Anne Hathaway should purchase it, don't you? 

She and the house would compliment each other beautifully. 

My deep thoughts for Friday.

That is all.
