So just to finish this thread off... back from SoCal tonight. I was off a bit on the timeframe and once SWMBO corrected me I chose not to update and announce to the world when our home would be vacant.
We did the first weekend "Desert Trip" concert(s) in Indio (same venue as Cochella). SWMBO and I had not previously seen any of the musicians live. My sister had seen all of them live before. I really enjoyed the shows!
From there we went to LA LA Land for a couple of days of sightseeing, then a couple of days driving down the coast to San Diego. Spent a couple of days in SD and flew home today.
