Coachella 2011 Day 3

Can easily say, YES, I had a fantastic time and yes I am sad it's over! The highlights are too many to mention, it would seriously take a whole day and more to write them all up... Loved the stylish people looking extra sharp, girls embracing the 70's look with long flowy hair, floppy hats, dresses and maxi skirts. The Strokes, SBTRKT and of course the festival finale, a magnificent performance by the hip-hop superstar Kanye West.

Kanye's set was hands down one of the most powerful hip hop shows I have been to at a music festival. It was filled with immense amounts of emotions from Kanye West as he cries and pours his heart out as the crowds fall silent saying "This is the most important show to me since my mom passed" 

In true Kanye style it was a show packed with tears, fireworks, ballerinas, dancers and one incredible red suit to ever be tailored for a man. Not to mention the amazing Celine Spring 11 shirt that he wore to begin his performance which started on a cherry picker over the audience. Although Rihanna was spotted a few times during the weekend and speculations grew between the crowds that she might hop on stage at some point, Kanye completed the show solo, with no encore uttering his last words as he left the stage "This show is dedicated to you, mama"

The crowds went nuts when he played this...
