I caught the first half of Danny Brown. He was fairly legible, and I like his voice and flow, but I never enjoy the "hype man" style of hip-hop live, where you have a bunch of people running around stage yelling a bunch of different things. It was only Danny Brown and one hype guy, but that hype guy had enough annoyance to make it seem like there were more of him. My Danny Brown experience ended when the hype man yelled out something along the lines of, "Bitches ain't nuthin but a bunch of dumb ass hos." Since I had bitches in my crew, it was time to leave.
There was a pretty funny moment when Danny Brown finished one of his verses with, "I'm the black Brad Pitt, I'm the Black Brad Pitt, suck my dick." Then he kept repeating the phrase like it was the chorus of the song (maybe it is?). For some reason, this comment became my battle cry for the rest of the weekend. I must have called myself the black Brad Pitt while mimicking Danny's voice fifty times (suck my dick).
That's too bad that Danny Brown has a hype man behind him now, the two times I've seen him he just had a very very white DJ who mouthed the words behind him. But uh, yeah, if your group was easily offended then you definitely couldn't stay, he's not exactly PC...

I wouldn't say they are that easily offended, it wasn't your typical "fuck a bitch fuck a ho" type comment. It came off more like, "all women are fucking dumb." And yes, his very white DJ was also there.
Danny Brown (and Schoolboy Q) performed with A$AP Rocky and his crew of fuckheads later that night while I was flying solo. It was such a train wreck that I couldn't look away. I ended up watching it for 20 minutes.
I'll never understand how filling the stage with a bunch of people screaming different catch phrases while you rap is a good idea. It's like if I was going to read poetry, and gave extra microphones to Gilbert Godfrey, Roseanne Barr, Ray Lewis, Sam Kinnison, and the lead singer of Napalm Death, and said, "you know what, just do your thing while I'm out there." And you know those guys think they're killing it every night. "Yo dawg, remember when all six of us were singing different songs at the same time? Man, the crowd was eating that shit up yo."
Also, Terri Gender Bender's (the vocalist you recently fell in love with) stage presence is unbelievable. I'm not sure if you are aware, but she fronts the band Le Butcherettes, who also rock hard tasty abs.
Wonk, did you not see Le Butcherettes at Coachella? I could have sworn we watched them together. I knew Omar was playing bass for them, but I didn't know she was singing for his sets as well. She's by far the most badass chick in music right now. Love love love her.

Ah, I did not know that. I'm downloading their albums now. I see their label is Rodriguez Lopez Productions. Well, there you go.
She can't have my heart, because it already belongs to Storm Large (as stormy coyly pointed out earlier), but she can have my adoration.

Ah fuck, I don't think I saw them with you? I'll have to check the schedule to jar my memory. Remember I've made it first band to last all three days at both Coachella 2011 and Coachella 2012. I go through funks while I'm at that festival.
EDIT: I checked the schedule, I had to have walked by Le Butcherettes, but I know I didn't watch them. I know I caught Lissie, Mantastique, and Oberhofer before their set, and I know I saw the beginning of Metronomy, then left for Band of Skulls, then went back and saw the end of Metronomy because I liked their set so much. Then I must have walked right by them on my way to catch the end of First Aid Kit. I believe I did find you on the way to First Aid Kit, and you came with me?

Yeah, easily offended was the wrong choice of words. I just meant that if you take anything he says seriously its gonna be a long show.
What the fuck is that bull horn sound they played every 30 seconds for the entire show. I thought that was a Maybach Music staple? Like six people yelling at me wasn't annoying enough.
It's at 21 and 29 seconds of this video (turn your volume up):
EDIT: I'm like Pavlov's dogs. Whenever I hear that sound, I salivate about punching someone.
Haha I hate that horn too. I used to work at a bar and the DJ on Saturday night was really good, but he had a Kaos pad with that sample in it. We could always tell when he had had enough to drink because he would start using that sample all the time and I would cut him off because of it.
