    Should have done M.I.A. instead of Diplo, and Aphex Instead of Sasha & Digweed. Can't believe nobody has picked Diplo.

    Yeah me either, but the crowd seemed to be loving him. Also he had a ton of VIP viewers on stage, and the MIA cameo was a nice touch.

    Didn't see his set but Diplo's a buddy of mine and he always brings the fire! Said he was nervous about going on before Richard D. James.

    Diplo was half decent on the other hand Pendulum sucked worse than the fuckin Audio Bullys

It's all so obvious.

    Diplo was one of the worst sets I saw this weekend.

    Aphex was one of the best i've ever seen. Legendary.

    I was in Sahara and RW when he also played at Do Lab.

    I dont regret staying for the whole set of the amazing Architecture in Helsinki. I also completely missed Jens Lekman because of it.

    I should've gone to one of Adam Freeland's show at WMC in Miami. I wished he also played at UMF like James Zabiela.

    Adam Freeland for Coachella 2009!

    Booka Shade sounded great but I was sitting at the back of the tent eating - it had to happen then. Diplo did not deserve a pass after his hideous set at the Mayan in LA opening for Joos-tease March 31 so ooops.

    Fatboy
    Modselektor
    Hot Chip
    MIA (sans shenanigans)
    Chromeo

    They were all really good, but Fatboy was my favorite performance at Coachella 08.

    All in all, the cavernous den of sin, better known as the Sahara tent, was off the fucking hook!
