BuzzJack Music Forum _ R&B and Hip-Hop _ Beyoncé @ Coachella

Thought I'd start a thread for Beyoncé headlining Coachella festival.
Beyoncé is getting into “Formation” for festival season.
“She is 100 percent focused on her Coachella performance,” a source tells PEOPLE of Queen Bey. “She is rehearsing for hours every day. She wants to look her best and for the show to be spectacular.”
The Grammy winner, 36, will deliver two weekend performances at the Indio, California, music festival, taking the stage on April 14 and 21. Beyoncé was originally slated to headline Coachella in 2017 but dropped out on doctor’s orders after revealing she was pregnant with twins; instead, Lady Gaga took her place.
“She was disappointed last year when she had to cancel, so she wants everything be perfect this time,” the source adds of Beyoncé. “She is very excited about the show.”
Already parents to daughter Blue Ivy, 6, Beyoncé and husband JAY-Z welcomed their twins — Rumi and Sir — last June. The star’s festival performance will be her first return to a public stage since welcoming their younger children.
Beyoncé has been prepping for the performance for months. In addition to regular workouts (SoulCycle is a favorite!), the “Sorry” singer recently adopted a vegan diet to get stage ready.
Shortly after Bey’s Coachella set, she and Hova will hit the road for their second joint tour, dubbed OTR II, which kicks off June 6 in the U.K.
An insider previously told PEOPLE that the power couple’s children will join them on the road. “They are incredibly excited. It took a lot of work to make this happen. It’s the best choice for their family,” the insider said. “They will all travel together and have a fun family adventure.”
What does everyone want to see from her headline stint at Coachella?

Ideally I'd like her to perform a new track given some of the speculations about album seven material but that is wishful thinking 
I expect the setlist to be predominantly Lemonade tracks although I'd love Pretty Hurts/Blow/XO to be on the setlist

Halfway through watching her full set and she’s SLAYING as usual ! The Destiny’s Child section was A LOT better than the time at the Super Bowl performance.

Poor Solange

Omg I'm just watching this now (!) and YAS at her performing "I Care"! One of my favourite songs of hers ever but it has felt so underrated, especially amongst the many ballads of '4'.
She is slaying the vox, I loved the little gospel intro to "I Care" and the raps for "Top Off" and "Bow Down" *.*

Okay that was incredible! The Destiny's Child reunion was everything!!! So glad that Kelly and Michelle got to sing their own lines and it came across so much better than the Super Bowl five years ago. I wish they'd done more songs (especially as Michelle wasn't even in the group when they released "Say My Name") but I won't complain.
Is it worth watching the second weekend performance as well? I know J Balvin came out for "Mi Gente" but was the setlist different otherwise?

I think(?) the second performance was the same, obviously still brill I’m sure but the same as far as I can tell.
