Coachella to install new bathrooms at the Polo Grounds
Curbed has the inside scoop on improvements to the bathroom situation at this year's Coachella. Goldenvoice has announced that it has completed construction on the polo grounds very first permanent restrooms just in time for Weekend 1. Designed specifically for the Coachella and Stagecoach festivals, the new restrooms are located in the "terrace" section of the venue and include 324 stalls and trough-like sinks. The bathrooms will be open to everyone attending the festival, so don't expect this to be an exclusive VIP experience -- but anything is better than a port-a-john at the end of a 3-day festival.

Blink 182 drummer, Travis Barker, first dipped his toes into electronic music alongside the late, great DJ AM. From Slash to Raekwon, he's collaborated with some of the biggest artists in the music industry in a variety of genres. Most recently he teamed up with Steve Aoki for a remix of his own Yelawolf collaboration "Push Em," released on Aoki's Dim Mak Records. He continues to tick the boxes on his laundry list of collaborations and guest appearances with two must-see performances at Coachella this year. In an interview with Billboard, Barker discussed his plans for Goldenvoice's Coachella where he is set to perform with hip hop collective Run the Jewels and PandaFunk leader Deorro where he plans to perform a track the two have created.
