With less than 90 days until Coachella, music lovers scoured Craigslist this past weekend for tickets to Weekend 1. Yet, San Francisco residents found a very different type of ad when they typed "Coachella" into their search: Needed: 2 Coachella Boyfriends for weekend 1.

The "Coachella Girlfriends" became overnight Internet stars for their gutsy, witty post that broke down their love (and hate) for bands as well as their overall boyfriend requirement (30% bro, 7.5% hipster/indie, 12.5% raver, and 50% normal). Craigslist removed their post within 24 hours but by then it had already gone viral, spawned copycat Craigslist posts, response Tumblrs from virtual suitors, and a Twitter account run by the "Girlfriends" themselves. We managed to track down the brazen ladies behind the post.

While we were expecting a heavy dose of snark-casm, the "Coachella Girlfriends" registered as laid-back, sweet, with normal jobs (marketing and event planning) and perhaps, even being a little bro-y themselves, ("We're with some friends at a bar, watching the San Francisco 49ers game," they told us).

Here, the Girlfriends tell us why they made the post, the funniest responses they received (dick pics included), and when they'll crown their "Coachella Boyfriends".

What is your dating status?

We are both currently single.

What was the inspiration for the post?

There's not a lot of opportunity to meet new, single people within our group. We're normal, nice girls who just want to meet new people. With the Coachella lineup coming out this past weekend, we were talking about the shows and were tossing around ideas for branching outside of our group. At Coachella, you aren't going to necessarily chat with the person next to you at the show. You're listening to music. You're involved. So, we were talking one night, and I said 'What if we did a Craigslist post? What kind of response would we get?' I'd seen other Craigslist posts, like "Wintertime Boyfriend Needed". It was written well and really funny. So, we were like, 'It's 90 days to Coachella. What's the harm in putting feelers out a little early?' We obviously didn't think it would go viral.

When did you realize it went viral?

We wanted [our post] to be entertaining, show our personalities, and relate back. We posted it late Thursday night and were checking our emails the next morning. It was crazy because people were really interested. People were even cheering us on, saying, "you girls go. This is awesome. You all are awesome. I hope you can find your Coachella boyfriends." But when we realized it was on Twitter, we were like, "This is bigger than we thought." We started searching and found articles and more tweets.

What's the difference between your Craigslist post and online dating?

We've been to Coachella a few years in a row now, and we do end up meeting people, but maybe it's not exactly the type of guy you want to meet. We know what we're looking for in a guy. So, this is taking control and putting something out there. We posted exactly what we're looking for: a normal, great, tall guy, who wants to have fun, and showers.

Speaking of your requirements, how do you explain them?

We're both tall girls. We're both 5'10-5'11. We'll also be car camping. That's why we requested people who are also car camping, so they'd be in the same vicinity. Beyond that, most guys have a little bit of bro in them and they should just admit it. 'Do you wear a tank top? Do you like neon? Do you play beer pong?' If, yes, then you have bro in you. [Since we live in SF], were also exposed to very distinct communities. The Mission is super hipster and super indie. That's not our scene, but we appreciate that kind of music, so that's why we put in a small percent of that. We love electronic music, which is where the raver portion came from. That's probably our favorite genre, but we don't want an extreme raver or someone super into drugs. We want someone who actually enjoys the music. Then, we threw in the normal category, because we feel like we're pretty normal. And the SF requirement, so we can stay in touch and meet before Coachella.

So why a "Coachella Boyfriend" and not just a boyfriend?

We're not going to deny that having a guy with you at Coachella makes it a little more fun and exciting. We both have very similar and distinct music tastes, and tend to venture off together. So, it would be cool to have a pair of guys that would want to venture off with us, dance, and hang out.

What do the responses look like so far?

We've received 80 responses. Most of them are legit, with essays, pictures, full on posts responding. A couple of guys dedicated entire pages of Tumblr blogs to their response. People have been really creative and funny. They've personalized photos with captions and taglines. They have really played off all the requirements we had and given supporting evidence. "I was a football player, so I can definitely hold you on my shoulder." "I'm very into showering." We've had twin brothers, guys who have recently broken off engagements and are trying to get out of a rut, as well as people from New York and LA. We were surprised at how much effort people put in.

Any dick pics? Actually, no. We haven't been sent any dick pics. But we have gotten a lot of shirtless bros, or, they're at concerts in tank tops wearing bandanas. I think one caption was, "Shirtless. Just because." They all try to demonstrate their concert personalities.

Can you share actual responses?

Definite "Maybe" Entries...

· If I make it to the second round of interviews, please send me back a picture of you guys! I will attach a shameless selfie i took before embarking on a day of high energy raving at EZOO this past summer in 2013. Hope to hear back!

· I would love to be one of or both of your boyfriend. I am an ex-volleyball player from Princeton with a great vertical and broad shoulders- perfect for getting to the front of the stage. I am also ferociously good-looking. I would describe myself more as 32.5% bro and 5% hipster indie, judging by your ratios.

· Future Coachella Girlfriends: Firstly, we can appreciate girls that know what they want, so kudos on the post. With a few Coachellas under our belts without anyone on our shoulders, we're looking to have a few ladies to share Ellie Goulding with

· We are both athletes and carrying girls on our shoulders is literally a favorite pastime of ours. Being tall we feel it is our responsibility to give back to those that are a little vertically challenged.

Definite "No" Entries...

· Sup bitches, Im down. Hit me up if u want more info.

How are you keeping track and do you have a rating system?

We've started a Google docs spread sheet. As for tracking applicants, we first divided them into "no," "maybe," and "support!" categories. "Support!" just for the awesome notes from people not applying. Then, we gave each application points based on a variety of things:

1-10 points: How well matching the application

1-5 points: Level of creativity and humor of the application

+1 point for every show they want to see that we want to see

-1 point for every show they want to see and we don't want to see

+1 point for every inch over 6 ft

Have the applicants requested anything in return?

Some have asked for pictures of us, or if we are real [to clarify that it's not a joke].

So, when will you make a decision about your "Coachella Boyfriends"?

We are planning to make a decision before Coachella. Ideally we'd like to meet the candidates in person beforehand, if they live in SF, so we can get a feel for if we would be Coachella compatible. At the same time we have some great applications from New York and LA so depending on how the SF applicants play out, we may meet our Coachella Boyfriends at the festival itself. Anything can happen at this point!

You've chosen to remain anonymous, why?

Some people think because we didn't post photos, or information, we must be unattractive or desperate. When you are posting something on Craiglist, you're probably going to attract some weirdos, so we didn't want our identities out there. We wanted to be able to filter and use our discretion about giving out our information. Now, we're kind of playing with the anonymity of being the "Coachella Girlfriends" and not revealing our identities.

Have you told your friends that you're the "Coachella Girlfriends"?

No, we haven't told any of our friends and it's killing us. I was at lunch with a group of my friends and one of them brought up the post. She was like, "Dude. Did you see that Craigslist post?" It became a running joke the whole night, asking guys "What percent of bro are you? What percent hipster?" It was pretty hard to keep it a secret and not tell them.

What does the arrangement actually look like once you get to Coachella?

The beauty of Coachella, you wake up at 7AM. You are not sleeping in. It's hot. You pull yourself together, shower, eat something, and then you still have three hours before the show starts. That's when we'd want to meet up with these guys. Go to the venue with them. See some of the similar shows and go from there. We're not looking for sex. We're not looking to do drugs and get crazy. We're looking for friendship, potential love. We know it's a long shot, but you never know. Making new friends is best-real-case scenario.

What if you meet someone new there?

If we lost our "Coachella Boyfriends" it's not the end of the world. We aren't taking ourselves too seriously. Coachella is a festival. It's a crazy place. You end up losing your close friends.

Aside from meeting your "Coachella Boyfriends" and the music, what are you looking forward to at Coachella?

We wish we had put Dillon Francis , because we love him. We would be his "Coachella Girlfriends." We didn't list him in the post because we thought all of our friends would read it and immediately know it was us if we put too many specific bands. We are also into the art installations and the fashion. We probably over think our outfits like most girls do, but it's fun to dress up and do something different that what you wear in your real lives or to work —f ringes, patterns, tie-dye.
