Frank Ocean’s Coachella headlining set has obtained a less-than-warm reception from followers. After beginning over an hour late, followers had been disillusioned by what turned out to be a meandering, disjointed set through which he solely carried out a handful of songs earlier than a DJ performed a string of mashups and remixes. While he did tease a brand new album, after burning followers so badly together with his first-weekend set, they won’t be wanting ahead to it as a lot as they had been on Saturday.

Fans left questioning simply why Frank’s set turned out the best way it did could have gotten an evidence on Twitter, although. The Festive Owl, an impartial journalistic outlet that covers festivals across the nation, spoke with a number of sources in regards to the disastrous set, reporting their findings in a protracted tweet that exposed a lot of the behind-the-scenes finagling that sparked the hour-long delay.

The stage manufacturing was presupposed to (and did) comprise an ice rink that was constructed and able to go.

Frank determined on the final minute that he now not wished it in any respect. All of the individuals strolling round him at the beginning of the efficiency had been really ice skaters, had been working towards for weeks, and had been presupposed to be skating as a part of the manufacturing. Coachella needed to deconstruct the accepted stage (that had been deliberate and signed off on for months prematurely) + soften the whole ice rink after which set it up how Frank determined as we speak with no warning. Which is what you ended up seeing, and prompted the hour-long delay. This all occurred when doorways had already opened for Sunday, and folks had been securing their spots to see him. If the last-minute adjustments weren’t made he wouldn’t have carried out in any respect — leaving the pageant and not using a closing headliner.

Frank additionally personally pulled the plug on the final second on the dwell stream which left a really bitter style in lots of inside Coachella’s mouths.

Ultimately, and I quote — “It simply didn’t seem to be he wished to be there however was obligated to be. Everything (together with him) fell aside final minute.

Don’t count on to see any protection from the pageant in regards to the set. Something that’s unprecedented within the historical past of Coachella. The relationship will not be in a very good place proper now.”

What this implies for Weekend Two of Coachella stays to be seen… however don’t be stunned if massive adjustments are introduced someday this week.
