    Blink-182 will replace Frank Ocean this weekend at Coachella:

    After suffering an injury to his leg on festival grounds in the week leading up to weekend 1. Frank Ocean was unable to perform the intended show but was still intent on performing, and in 72 hours, the show was reworked out of necessity.

    “On doctor’s advice, [Ocean] is not able to perform weekend 2 due to two fractures and a sprain in his left leg.”

    The statement concludes with a statement from Ocean: “‘It was chaotic. There is some beauty in chaos. It isn’t what I intended to show but I did enjoy being out there and I’ll see you soon.’ — Frank Ocean.

    The one-off performance seemed like such an epic comeback but ok fine I’ll tune in for a second one.

    Fuck Yes. I have tickets to weekend 2 and was bummed that I missed their set for weekend 1. I feel bad for Frank fans, but this is such a massive win for me. PUMPED.

    Apparently Tom jumped the gun on this and it is not confirmed. Would love to see it!

    I'm a little out of the loop. What's the deal with Frank Ocean dropping out?

    I wonder if they'll live stream it again, though i guess it wouldn't be until 1 AM on the east coast.

    Might be Spider-Man...

    Wasn’t Frank Ocean like half backstage and barely performing the last show ?

    So I guess he was there all weekend and he was riding his bike and fell or something and hurt his leg and on Sunday he showed up an hr late into his set and cause he started late they cut his set short. After Coachella I guess he went and saw a doctor and he has 2 fractures and a sprain in his leg so on doctors orders they told him not to perform.

    Does anyone have a link to view the Sunday set? I'm on the East Coast and watching after midnight with work the next morning was not possible. I looked on YouTube but didn't find anything.
