their set was absolutely killer—honestly way better than I expected. They were constantly vibing with the crowd and just having a blast; they didn't stick to some rigid, boring formula. And honestly, regarding people chanting "America"—if they hadn't done that, the critics would have just found something else to complain about anyway. If you're there to listen, you had a great time regardless, and even if you aren't their biggest fan, the stage production and tech were top-tier.☕👍
...I'm with you 😉 ,, I thought they had one of the best sets of the whole weekend.. that whole "Kroejjjšaaa" thing was more funny and charming to me than anything annoying.. honestly, it didn't bother me at all 😁 ... I’m a total sucker for stuff like that—I love when a band actually interacts with the audience, it makes them instantly more likable to me😁
I just sat down and scrolled through every single video I took on my phone over those two days, and honestly, I realized how much I absolutely loved it 😁 ... I guess I’m basically a kid when it comes to stuff like this—there’s just nothing like actually seeing and hearing someone you already love and listen to live, even if, objectively speaking, the performance wasn't perfect (like YYY, the editors) .. --I still love them, I'll still be listening to them, and if I ever get the chance to go to another concert, I am definitely going 🙂 ..
..then there were the acts I don't listen to all the time, like N. E. R. d., Kraftwerk, Tricky, Moby... it was still such a blast to hear them live ... and I can't say any of those sets were bad 🤷 ... the N. E. R. d. show was pure insanity for me—I don't think I've ever jumped and danced that much in my entire life 👍 ..
...FF -- they were great 👍 ...
..so, my takeaway is this: everything I didn't quite enjoy—(the editors being totally uninterested, acting like they're too cool for new stuff, or skipping some of their older hits that are actually classics, and N. E. R. d. with that whole "say Coachella, Coachella" push 😕 😁 --but honestly, I don't even care about that, because the performance itself was perfect 🙂 ) ... --I'm forgetting 😁
--it was just awesome 😁

The performance actually caught me off guard—the singer was working really hard, kind of a blend of Chris Martin and Ian Curtis vibes—but I love them normally, so I had a blast. The crowd was pretty meh, nobody seemed to know any of the songs, and the setlist was terrible (four brand new tracks instead of playing stuff like Blood or All Sparks), but I still had a great time.
If I didn't already love them, I probably wouldn't have liked it either. 😬
And yeah, the festival organization was solid.
Oh, don't be like that! I knew everything—I absolutely love them😍 😍... but regarding the setlist—yeah, I agree it could've been better🤷... though if we're being totally honest, they disappointed me a little too. I mean, I've been listening to them forever and I really love them, so I was dying to see them live, but they felt a bit forced—to me, they looked completely uninterested, almost like they were just playing through the motions🤷 ...
I mean, I’ve never really been a huge fan of Kraftwerk, but man—their performance last night was absolutely legendary 🙂 ...
.. I love Franz and unknown so much that I can't even be objective about them—honestly, they sounded pretty rough, but I didn't care at all because I was having such a blast 🙂 .. Franz was just... incredible...
...and Amy Winehouse was just so sweet—nothing crazy special, but she was totally fine...
