Cee Lo Green, the “Fuck You” singer, was scheduled to perform at Coachella Friday @ 4:50 p.m. on the main stage. The singer showed up 25 minutes late, claiming that his flight landed late. He then apologized to fans and said he only had 20 minutes left. He only got to perform 5 songs in his set and when he started a cover of Journey’s, “Don’t Stop Believing”, the soundman cut the sound during the middle of the song. Cee Lo left the stage, angry and frustrated.

More on the story, here.

Well it looks like Coachella told Cee Lo, “Fuck You” for being late. The Coachella staff did the right thing though. Coachella doesn’t allow performers to play overtime because it’ll hold back the scheduling for the other performers. Even famous musicians can be unprofessional douchebags. They don’t care how famous you are. Coachella needs to do what’s right for the show and they need to follow the strict set times. I’m siding with Coachella on this.

As for Cee Lo being late why would a musician fly to a festival on the same day the festival is on? That was pretty much his fault. Cee Lo should have showed up a day early so he can be there early for his performance. That’s how you be a professional, show up early for your performance.

We can be sure that Coachella won’t ever be booking this midget fat ass again.
