Video: Outkast Live at Coachella April 2014 (Full Set)

I suppose this will be the most talked about set at this year’s Coachella festival, as people really seem to love themselves some Outkast. Of course at this point the duo of Big Boi and André 3000 has announced many festival dates that will take them through most major cities and festival circuit’s this summer.  Fans should be pleased as both these rappers have been doing this for years and are pro’s in their delivery. The hour and a half set includes selections from multiple albums with most of the radio hits present and guest emcee’s to boot.  Of course these video’s are usually taken down super quickly so get you fix now while you can.

Video: Refused’s Full Coachella Set in HD

Before ending up in New York for a series of live dates recently reformed Swedish Hardcore group Refused did their thing at Coachella. And like our post on At the Drive-In last week, which has since been removed, a full HD video of their performance is now available to watch. The performance is broken down track by track making for a grand total of 13 ear blistering tunes to watch and enjoy. Below is the fan favorite “New Noise,” the rest can be viewed HERE but do so quickly as these videos don’t last very long.

Video: AT THE DRIVE-IN’S FULL COACHELLA SET in HD

Coachella’s first weekend is finally over, and while everyone is talking about Tupac’s hologram, I find this to be a lot more exciting. At The Drive-In performed  an energetic 40 minute set featuring tunes from their final two LP's, Relationship of Command and In Casino Out.  Make sure to enjoy lead singer’s Cedric Bixler-Zavala’s onstage banter, on topics ranging from Peter Saarsgard’s mom to Urban Outfitters but don’t wait too long because these video’s have been getting pulled from the internet extremely fast by Johnny Law.

At the Drive-In Reunite

Looks like one of my all time favorite bands have reunited for some shows in 2012. In 2009, founding At the Drive-In member Cedric Bixler-Zavala teased a possible band reunion, explaining they'd been "making amends" something I have heard at least once a year every year from common friends but now it's actually happening.  The band's website reads, "ATTENTION ! To whom it may concern: AT THE DRIVE-IN will be breaking their 11 year silence. THIS STATION IS .... NOW ....OPERATIONAL."  Referring to a lyric from the seminal Relationship of Command LP. They've also have begun Tweeting again.

The boys are set to play two dates at Coachella this year, April 15th and 22nd but there is no word on a new album or material in general.  I kind of have mixed feelings about this, I’ve never met a bigger fan of the band than myself, I was petty obsessed with all their records and have seen them live many times so I prefer to keep the memory as is. It is  interesting to see the extent  of all the love, something that always existed but became much more apparent after they broke up.  I remember when they were around and touring on the regular I couldn’t even  give tickets away for free due of the lack of interest from most people although those that were fans were always hardcore in showing it!

Creators Project: Arcade Fire & Chris Milk’s "Summer Into Dust" documentary

As a part of The Creators Project, the Arcade Fire teamed with director Chris Milk for a unique installation based around the track “Wake Up” during their recent Coachella gig. The video below outlines every intricate detail, the gist is that Milk was able to use the LEDs and IR transmitters of beach balls handed out to the crowd to paint various pictures and patterns. The end result was a landmark in performer-audience interaction.
Despite Coachella wrapping up back in April, the project isn’t quite over yet. For those lucky enough to have snagged/violently stolen one of those balls, head here on a regular basis to see updates on sharing/uploading photos, videos, and stories.
