Video: Coachella 2008 - Friday
Aphex Twin at Coachella - Part 1 (glenjamn)
Sorry for my absence over the last couple days. There’s been a lot of interesting stuff going on over here at Critical Acclaim. I’ve been doing research on a few new developments for the blog as well as finishing up finals. It looks like we might be changing up some things here in the next few weeks, so stay tuned for further details on that. But during my short hiatus, Coachella officially kicked off out in California and after perusing YouTube earlier this morning, I found some interesting videos that those who didn’t make it out will probably enjoy. As you may already know, the AT&T Blue Room is streaming a few of the concerts on their website. Man Man, VHS or Beta, Hot Chip, Animal Collective, and Portishead will all be streaming later today and tomorrow should be pretty good too with streaming performances from Stars, Metric, Spiritualized, Gogol Bordello, and Love and Rockets. You can check out the AT&T Blue Room at Coachella here.
Thanks to glenjamn for these excellent Aphex Twin videos. He kinda got roughed up by security in that first video, but parts 2 and 3, when he heads back to the crowd, are even more amazing. Check those out after the jump, along with some great videos of Vampire Weekend and The Raconteurs. I’ll be adding more videos from Coachella over the next few days so keep checking back.
