    If you were to tell me about a band that uses horns, ukulele, and accordion to make Eastern European folk-esque music, I'd expect to find it "interesting", but to not really ever feel like listening to it.Fortunately Beirut is something more than that. Powerfully emotion music that compels you to keep listening.

    Amanda Palmer knows how to put on a show. She is very much the type of performer whose live performance cannot be captured on an album. I was wondering how she'd be minus the other half of the Dresden Dolls. Still amazing.

    I laid out in the field and just soaked in the Black Keys' heavy blues riffs. Probably my quintessential "festival" moment of the whole show.

    Every year there's a performance that I really looked forward to, and yet when the time came for their show to start, I'm not ready to leave where I'm at. I enjoyed the show, but I don't think I fully grokked it.

    Sigh. Everyone asked about this performance, and I had to shrug my way through it. The Beatles songs are great, but I've never been blown away by the rest of his stuff.To be fair, I go to Coachella first and foremost for bands other than headliners, so I graded the headliners very harshly.

    Oy. I've loved both MIA's albums. Having seen her now play live twice, she's a ridiculously bad performer. She's not lower than 11 because she's got some great songs. But any reasonable performance would have put her into the top 5 easily.
