How The Internet Reacted To OutKast's First Show In A Decade

    The greatest show on earth is back. Here's how the first of the legendary duo's 40-plus festival dates went down.

    OutKast reunited at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California on Friday, April 12, for a career-spanning set of 27 songs that lasted almost two hours.

    They spent some of the show inside a transparent cube, onto which videos were projected.

    Update — April 12, 1:11 p.m. ET: Watch the full set.

    Andre 3000 had sound issues throughout the show.

    Fans noted that Andre was performing some of his The Love Below songs for the first time:

    Fam this the first time in history Dre ever performed these jams live...

    But throughout the set, like other nostalgia headliners before them, OutKast found it difficult to energize Coachella's young crowd.

    The crowd was rocking out to the other DJ's and artists, it was madness. What makes them so low-energy with @Outkast? #Coachella2014

    fuck. dre is about to play so many worse audiences than coachella, too.

    #OutkastReunion Dre back in the hotel like..

    David Hasselhoff was into it, though.

    I finally can check "watch David Hasselhoff do the dougie at an Outkast concert" off my bucket list.

    And Earl Sweatshirt had a great time:

    yeah bro this outkast under appreciation comes as a surprise to me because I had a good ass time over there.

    At the end of the show, Andre 3000 scream-sang the first verse of "Hey Ya" with his back to the audience.

    Three Stacks body language got me wondering if this shit is gonna make it to NYC this summer.

    The show was meant to end with "The Whole World," a 2004 OutKast song featuring Killer Mike. But because the set ran long, that didn't happen.

    Agghhhhh #Coachella Time was cut no #wholeworld I am saddened. J Cole was cool as hell doe.

    Just saw an amazing OutKast concert, but for Coachella cutting them for time, making André say "I know it's weird" and make a face like

    But, hey, tours can hit their stride as they go:

    Questlove once wrote that it's best to check out a tour in the middle, when its kinks were worked out. See you in GA, #OutKast20.

    And OutKast are mighty, forever, no matter what.

    All these cats giving advice need to chill out... They are artists and they are nuanced and mighty #OUTKAST

    while you turn your nose up to say something silly lets also make sure to keep in mind that that was outkast you feel me like wtf are u sayn

    best part? is Outkast has us up and 4:40 in the morning discussing hip hop. which is incredible. can't wait til show hits east coast.

    Here's Friday's 27-song setlist:
