Mr NoahĀ· editedThe backlash to this performance has been a bit excessive imo.
I think that people were already mad before it started because it wasnāt going to be streamed. I get that live streaming festival sets has become more common, but it still should be acceptable to not stream a set. If you want to see a performance, then go to see it live.
As for the actual performance, people wanted him to play āthe hitsā in a traditional way (i.e. as they sound on record) or play new material. He obviously did neither, but I donāt think that he should be criticized for it. The renditions that he gave were great (his voice sounded maybe better than ever), and the remixed instrumentals kept old material fresh. The house style of some of the remixes along with the DJ set made complete sense if you have been following him for the past 4 years. Hoping for new songs or an album announcement was wishful thinking.
With all of that being said, he should not have started an hour late (which also caused the early ending), the transitions between songs should have been smoother, and he should have actually sang during Nikes/Nights. All of these things should be criticized. But the end result to me isnāt a disaster of a performance, which is how itās being portrayed.

ragedsycokillerStfu. They said all sets were going to be streamed for the entire time
Thankfully there were probably thousands of people recording the performance on their phones instead of watching it, so you should have no trouble finding videos :ā)

were litterally zero photographers present lol
yes, it's true. i lost the tweet, but the journalist from some famous outlet posted her sketchbook and said it's instead of photos, cause all photographers were banned. so there is still no official photo of coachella headliner
the funniest thing: Frank doing that s*** since 2013 Europe tour and many photos you saw on the internet during there years are rules abuse or not from official press

Are you really trying to say that videos recorded from in the crowd on phones with no sound equipment is basically the same as a live televised stream with 4K cameras and the performance completely micād in to the video production?
Frank worshippers been embarrassing themselves for the past 24 hours ITT.

i watched multiple people say āhe brought people on stage who did nothingā, āhe didnāt sing any of the songsā etc
essentially lying to downplay the things he actually did right
was it a disappointment and unorganized? yes.
but he did sing beautifully, and the remixes were genuinely dope, and the kid coming on stage and dj crystal mess were special moments.
the good was undercut by the bad but i hate when they try to act like the good never happened lmao

Everyone I know that went whoās musical opinion I respect also thought it was fire but obviously the frat kids next to me who walked out after they got their picture werenāt happy that he didnāt keep it simple
Frank stans been embarrassing for a while. I mean stanning him still 7 years after blond instead of simply listening to other music is a red flag in itself. I rarely meet a Frank stan that branches out into other genres or could tolerate anything left field whatsoever
Doesnāt mean his music and his art isnāt incredible
I feel like, with no disrespect to Drake or Travis, but if you love Frank, and your second favorite or first favorite artist is one of the other two I mentioned, you probably thought the set was terrible.
If you hated Bjork's set, you probably thought this set was horrible.
The internet has changed fandom. People who would only ever like top 40 might like something pop adjacent, while not necessarily the most popular sound of the time.
The 11/12 songs he actually performed (not the lip sync performances), are some of the best performances I have ever seen live. Next to my favorite with twigs, Moses Sumney, D'Angelo, etc.
