Coachella '08 Hghlights

Well, another Coachella has passed and needless to say it was a pretty good one. Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim) absolutely ruined it, as always (in a good way.) He has this uncanny power of transforming an audience into carefree bouncing mass of joy. He is the musical Willy Wonka (Check the first video.) Pendulum was another event highlight, as was Goldfrapp. Kraftwerk was good, but not nearly as good as their '04 performance. Calvin Harris and Mark Ronson were loads of fun and Prince is a funk monster (no pun intended.) He started his set by saying probably the coolest thing I've ever heard. He said, "I am here...And right now you are all at the coolest place in the world." And at that second I knew I was. I would have posted some video of Prince, but they were already stripped of their sound on Youtube due to copyright infringements :(

Anyway, take some time to check out some of the video below. Scroll away and enjoy!
