There’s nothing like going to one of the world’s biggest music festival, catching spectacular musical acts all day and night long, and then catching an out-of-nowhere set from one of music’s biggest commodity. In typical fashion for the most famous haircut and glasses combo in electronic music, Skrillex appeared as a surprise headliner at Coachella. After Netsky‘s ferocious and groovy set, Sonny Moore threw fans off guard by appearing as the mystery spot for the Do Lab stage. From dropping some of his Jack Ü tracks to mixing and mashing his classics, Skrillex continues to show that he knows to please the masses while using his alien charm to stay one step ahead of them.
Fans quickly took to social media to post Tweets, cellphone footage, and more of the twenty-nine year-old producer and DJ taking to the stage. Here are just some of the highlights of last night’s social media activity.

In this footage, it appears to be the apparent end of Skrillex’s set where he combines the Coldplay classic “Fix You” with his remix of Benny Benassi’s “Cinema” that lead into a rambunctious dubstep drop.
