While they made a few fans nervous by starting their set about 10 minutes late, things went a lot smoother for Radiohead during weekend two of Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
Sound issues stopped the headliner’s set twice last week forcing the band to also exit the stage twice.
This weekend however, about 30 minutes into their Friday night set, everything was going off without a hitch and unlike last week the band kept it’s momentum with songs like “Daydreaming,” and “15 Step.”
“I heard about what happened last week and I was getting a little worried when they weren’t starting,” Los Angeles resident Justin Linares said. “But they’re sounding good.”
This is the third time the band has headlined Coachella. They performed at the Indio music festival in 2004 and 2012.
And while last week they may have lost a few fans on Friday night who were drawn to the dance music performances at the Sahara tent, with Empire of the Sun and Dillon Francis slotted opposite Radiohead, this Friday the band played before a large crowd who were sparred last week’s sound troubles.
