Sadly it looks like the backing track too loud (at least with song one) also they muted the crowd for most of the set too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch boygenius set, you can clearly hear the moments where they want you to hear the crowd and where they want you to hear the artist. The BBC set up their audio in a completely different way, they want the artist to be drowned out by cheers or whatever - it’s how we do things here. I think in the US they prefer to put the focus on the artist. Glastonbury has the BBC recording for TV so is made incredibly well, whereas Coachella’s is bare bones just for a Youtube stream. Completely night and day really, which unfortunately makes a lot of the Coachella footage look a lot worse than it undoubtedly is, especially when it comes to crowd interaction. Glastonbury’s footages makes it feel like you’re actually there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with Bad Bunny, crowd absolutely belting every tune. Edited April 16, 2023 by Matt42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anarion Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 Hoping to see Labrinth at Glastonbury, his show at Coachella was sick. Angele would be nice as well, but seems like she's booked elsewhere. Coachella's lineup seems a bit more relevant and modern than Glastonbury this year. Letting AM, GnR and Elton John headline the same year is just so, so disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not exactly doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the two weekend thing is dumb, personally. It's a cash grab for the promoter, and prohibits musicians from hitting other california markets on their tour. Economies of scale to be fair. must reduce the ticket price significantly, probably at least 50-100$ per person as they reuse infrastructure, make more money on selling more food etc and get artists on a better deal.

Frank likely still on his first contract to return from 2020 and maybe the only diff financially is production demands. The shocker is that he is not selling merch which would have giving him a mountain of money. Edited April 16, 2023 by Suprefan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 Can’t believe we’re on the day of Frank’s headline show and we’re still non the wiser on whether this is gonna kick off his new album promo or if he’s literally just gonna phone it in and play a bunch of old shit. I’m loving the mystery and hype surrounding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the first Coachella line up in 99 and Underworld and Chemicals both on there so guess they have a bit of history with the fest. Cant believe they are in their mid 60s nowadays!

Coachella rarely gets these type of 90s dance acts vs glasto that always has one of chems, prodigy, underworld, orbital etc + fatboy every year Think chems being there must help, crossover is obviously massive.
