Well, it has finally come to an end, and while we're sure the speculation on next year's lineup has already begun, we can officially put Coachella 2008 to rest. By now, we all know that Prince covered "Creep" (that'll be Radiohead, not TLC, though the latter would have been so much more appealing) and Tegan and Sarah are downright comedians, but let's go out on a limb and say that the best moment of the festival HAD to be when the Verve busted out "Bitter Sweet Symphony". Yeah, it was totally expected but whatever, we get chills just by watching it from the middle of the crowd on a 4-inch YouTube screen. The Verve have always seemed a little dwarfed in comparison to their musical cousins Oasis, but as anyone who owns A Northern Soul and Urban Hymns can attest, they are legends in their own right. Let's hope that their next album will be up to snuff...
