Inside the Most Shocking Moments of Coachella Weekend 1 Including Grime’s Meltdown & Nelly Furtado’s Face Plant
The 2024 Coachella season continues to create some of the most iconic pop culture moments in music festival history.
Coachella has been known as the largest music festival in the United States, receiving almost 650,000 in annual attendance. From technical issues to on-stage mishaps, Exron Music has curated a roundup of the most shocking moments of Coachella weekend one.
Grimes’ Technical issues
Grimes fell victim to major technical issues involving her CDJs and the Rekordbox software, causing her entire tracklist to double tempo and become unmixable. The DJ/producer understandably grew frustrated and anxious on stage. In an apologetic explanation on Twitter, Grimes takes accountability for the lessons she faced while staying optimistic that her weekend two set will be flawless.
Lana Del Ray Soundcheck
The one-of-a-kind Lana del Ray honored her royal presence and talent this year as a headliner. The timeless singer, songwriter, and performer seamlessly handled a technical difficulty involving the microphone’s volume. Without drawing any attention, Lana Del Ray asked her audience for a subtle mic check and assistance singing along mid-way through her set.
Blur’s disappointment in the crowd
Coachella festival goers and artists complain that Coachella’s crowds have become dull. During Blur’s once-in-a-lifetime performance of “Girls and Boys”, Damon told the crowd “You’ll never f****** see us again, you might as well sing it”!”.
Tyler The Creator giving side-eye
Tyler, The Creator humorously shares gratitude towards his enthusiastic audience during Saturday’s headline performance. Furthermore, the rapper continued to explain that he was skeptical of the festival because “Coachella sometimes has crowds that are just dead as h***”.
Nelly Furtado’s professional fall
Canadian pop singer and songwriter Nelly Furtado on stage during her surprise performance at Dom Dolla‘s set. While performing their joint single “Eat Your Man”, Nelly gracefully landed the fall without missing one note ( a true entertainer). The pop artist later revealed on Instagram that the fall resulted in a bloody finger.
T-Pain stage nightmare
Some festival-goers received word that T-Pain made a surprise guest appearance only thirty minutes before the set. Consequently, when fans arrived at the Heineken House, the stage reached full capacity. Fans complain that a timeless artist like T-Pain should have been scheduled at the main stage due to the large crowd he would bring.
Marz
Yoooo, the homies call me Marz. I am a multidimensional Piscean Latina fairy from Miami-Dade County (no, not Florida). Electronic music has allowed me to appreciate the profound beauty that can be found in finding peace within the chaos. Artists such as Rezz, Skrillex, John Summit, Michael Bibi, and Amtrac blend the two seamlessly, creating a harmonious balance that resonates with me whenever I am on the dancefloor. When I am writing about electronic music, I feel this same balance of peace and chaos moving through me - starting in my hips, filling my heart, and radiating out from my soul. The power of music has brought me to this exact moment, and I only desire that you feel the warmth of the sun through my words.
