Our ups and downs from Saturday on weekends 1

play

Another coachella day, another edition of our coachella highs and lows. And there was nobody to lack this action-packed day because Charli had the stage while T-Pain (partly) flopped. But we will keep this thing more bite, since I still have a Travis Scott set to catch (so the jury is what part of this story in which the story has fit).

The heights

Rock lives and well in Coachella with Weezer and Green Day

There was a lot of talk about how Coachella deviated from its rock roots, just to turn something back to them this year. But if this year’s festival was an unofficial examination in the question of whether the booking of large rock acts is still a more practical way for the festival, the early appearances on Saturday have certainly delivered (the MISFITS set should still be in this font).

Weezer delivered a flood of hits early a day, Jimmy Eat World brought the Coachella stage in the afternoon a fully grown rock show and then Green Day delivered an commanding and energetic highlight that was difficult for spectacle, and seemed to make a clear argument that this was not a coachela for the first time. The massive amount seemed to be eating, and I hope that Goldenvoice CEO Paul Tollet also did it and will act accordingly when booking future festivals.

Charli XCX provided a magical set with a golden hour

Sometimes the Coachella stars are really align and in the end they have something like Charli XCX’s unforgettable gold hour set. A bonafide superstar, who was clearly at the height of her strength, was Charli XCX, the unfathomable charisma level out when she worked through the hits that defined the Brat Summer to complete the things with her upper classic “I love it”. She also did not disappoint the special guest front when she used her beloved employees Troye Sivan, Lorde and maybe the most exciting of all Billie Eilish.

But that was all when Charli had a cake in her own right, and showed it when she had the stage in her sunglasses, despite the lack of backup dancers or even much in relation to offset. Seriously, Lady Gaga is perhaps the best performer who has made the stage at Coachella 2025 so far, but Charli is certainly the coolest – and also quite great.

Medium Build offered a uplifting party atmosphere

I didn’t have much expectations when I hiked to the Gobi set from Media Build at 2:10 p.m. I only knew who he was, after hearing a few songs with my wife during a road trip to the coast that we had undertook last weekend. So I was completely overwhelmed, which he turned out for a funny, charismatic and talented artist. Medium build proved to be perfectly uplifting from the lush castles of the wig, which he had repeatedly attracted to his beautiful voice and increases during the show in order not to worry about what everyone else thinks and enjoy their life.

The weather = idyllic

Oh, what difference a day does! A day after we had suffered 100-degree temperatures that reminded of one of the most sweaty days in Coachella, the weather gods changed their melody and blessed us with a prediction that showed why Coachella belongs to the best places for a music festival-after sun assignments. The evening temperatures were mild, the wind was light and the sunset produced an explosion of the color over the sky when thousands gathered on the lawn in front of the main stage to expect Charli XCX’s set.

The depths

People make too much noise during the sets

I am a coachella diehard, which means that I often have to defend the festival when I speak to people who complain that it has developed into an influencer festival for people who take care of publishing the perfect insta history than music. For this reason, it was so discouraging to have several experiences today when people laughed loudly, talked, took photos and generally made tons of noise in some of the key moments of several sentences, such as the dramatic final minutes from above and beyond. Look, I am everything for people who have fun and enjoy coachella, but it works for them, but they have to relax.

T-pain’s lack of actual singing

Look, I know and accept that backing tracks are one thing. But it still felt like T-Pain who is already famous (notorious?) Because he has associated the artist more with the use of auto-tune. However, this does not mean that this set was absolutely bad.

Although it was disappointing that T-Pain was leaving the hype man for most of the set, he is still a rather incredible hype man, and the crowd hardly seemed to complain about anything when they danced roughly to hit the goal. Seriously, who remembered that T-Pain was part of so many bangers of the early 2000s? How do you remember “Kiss Kiss” and “Alcohol?” Wow. And T-Pain definitely sang (apparently with less automatically than usual?) When he delivered a unique coachella moment by reporting Chris Stapleton’s “Tennessee Whiskey” and Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin”.

Less than ideal schedule

Jimmy Eat World begins moments after the end of Weezer when there was a long walk between the stages and only played a few high-end rock acts all weekend? Frustrating. Almost beyond and beyond overlapping with the Green Day? Unforgivable. Well, I am one of the few coachellagoers who probably enjoy both first-class pop-punk and emotional, Trancy EDM alike. Well, maybe. Nevertheless, these are my ups and downs and I didn’t appreciate it.
