It feels like Coachella was so long ago, yet it was just a month ago. Here are a few pics and thoughts from the fest.
Goldfrapp. Awesome show. Got so close to the stage. Had to miss The Ranconteurs, but totally worth it.
Another great act - Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings. You'll know the Dap Kings because they backed Amy Winehouse on her last album. Sharon Jones kicks Amy Winehouse's ass to the moon. (And I say this after praising Amy Winehouse after seeing her at Coachella last year). Imagine if James Brown and Tina Turner were the same person. That's Sharon Jones.
The Black Lips. I wasn't their biggest fan going into this. After seeing them live - I'm a fan. I'm convinced they're one of those bands you can only appreciate live. They're too insane otherwise. Also, I'm convinced the lead singer is Eugene Hutz's doppelganger.
Rilo Kiley. Great show. That's all. Plus, she's one tiny, itty bitty girl.
Kraftwerk. I hadn't really listened to them before Coachella. I'm now a fan.
The man himself - Prince. Fantastic. Highlight of the fest for me. I'm sure it's because we were so FREAKING close to the stage. It was awesome. Loved it. He also, is a teeny, itty bitty person.
Awesome.
