LAist are a bug bunch of geeks. They're Star Trek geeks, David Duchovny geeks and Frank Gehry geeks. During their Cochella preview their readers reveal themselves to be Depeche Mode geeks.

Shanghaiist has a few drinks, has a few more drinks and burns a pile of condoms for their relatives. Meanwhile, their city sends a jaywalker to jail for the first time ever. Apparently they're cracking down on that kind of thing. Also, no water!
