Best Coachella performance

Who do people think performed the best at the Coachella festival?

I loved the NO performance the most, but Miss Kittin sounded the best.

Miss Kitten was shit, in my opinion. I mix techno and she did a terrible job. Swayzak were great, M.I.A. blazed the hottest set i saw and other notable acts for me were: Diplo, DJ Marky (not a big D&B fan but he was by far the best DJ of the weekend), Matthew Dear was good but predictable, Roots Manuva was better than i expeced and MF Doom had me rollin for a few songs before we had to head out for another set.

Of the DJ's, I saw DJ Jun, Ben Watt, and Miss Kittin. DJ Jun was the most bland shite I've ever heard, Ben Watt sounded good (I only caught the end part of his set), and Miss Kittin sounded the best IMO. Maybe I liked her so much because of the 10 potsmokers surrounding me.

Anyone catch Gang of Four? How were they? What did they play?

As far as Main Stage, big name acts go, I'd have to say the double punch of

BAUHAUS

followed by

Coldplay

How can you top Peter Murphy coming out on stage HANGING UPSIDE-DOWN and singing all of "Bela Lugosi's Dead" this way? Those guys are AMAZING musicians.

What can I say about Coldplay? They just know how to write a melodic hook that grabs you and won't let go.

In regards to Gang of Four, we got there for their last couple of songs [in order to stake out a good spot for NewOrder] and I thought they sounded great. All during their last song I thought, "Ok, why isn't there a bigger crowd for these guys? All of these young folks who are into all of these new "The" bands [the Vines, the Hives, etc.] could be viewing the SOURCE of their sound. Gang of Four are the ORIGINALS..."

Still upset about Cocteau Twins and Doves not showing up...

ERIC

Other than New Order, Bauhaus was tops for me. Class!

Peter Murphy dedicated Dark Entires (the last song) to Ian Curtis.

Bauhaus was great.
the Chems were good, if a little too similar to the show in SF. (I didn't stay for all of their set) Rilo Kiley was interesting. British Sea Power was fantastic Gang of Four was the best band I saw all weekend.
