Ah, Coachella. The time of the year thousands of young adults all collectively travel to the desert to watch an overpriced line-up and camp out of their cars. While I've spent my fair share of time at music festivals in my short life, I've never made the homage trip to Coachella in Southern California. With the festival season rapidly approaching, it's fun to admire the very specific groups of people who pay for these events year by year.

1. The 'Instagram' Girls

I honestly am always jealous of girls like these when I see these pictures. How do they come up with these totally hip, but original outfits? Let me know if you do!

2. The Random High Schoolers

As a young adult, I can guarantee you that there's nothing more terrifying than running into your best friend's high school age sister in the middle of a festival. Mom and dad, as a college student who has been to these events, hold off on these until your child is in college. I couldn't imagine attending before I was an adult.

3. The Frat Boys

If you love sweaty, shirtless meathead guys accidentally bumping into you during every set, find your local circle of fraternity brothers. Keep an eye out for guys in basketball jerseys, frat bro-tanks, and even no shirt at all and you've found the right place.

4. The Random Parents

One of my personal favorites are the adults who randomly seem to love enjoying these festivals as well. Some 50-something parents rocking out to Dillon Francis was the best thing I've seen all year.

5. Rave Culture Squads

Possibly the most frightening are the people who dress up in these ridiculous outfits, dance better than everyone and terrify me with their face masks. Most likely they will be holding up a totem that reads, "If you're lost, come dance with us!"

Whether you feel you belong to any of these groups, are between, or none, music festivals are a great deal of fun for anyone. With that in mind, remember to always be safe, always be with someone, and to not over-do it. All in all, if you're traveling to Coachella, Outside Lands, Lollapalooza, or anything else, have fun and enjoy the music.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up.
