Saturday’s Coachella highlights included Gustavo Dudamel and the LA Phil featuring “Wicked” star Cynthia Erivo and Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl, headliner Travis Scott,  El Malilla, Green Day and T-Pain, Charli xcx, Jimmy Eat World and Record Safari.

On Friday, a Lady Gaga headset mic malfunction, and her decision to power through it, won praise from fans in Indio — and online.

As her microphone started making crackling sounds before shutting down, Gaga kept singing — and dancing — to her hit “Abracadabra” while making a smooth transition to a handheld mic.

“I’m sorry my mic was broken for a second,” she told the crowd later in her set. “At least you know I sing live. I guess all we can do is our best, and I’m certainly giving you my best tonight.”

Social media quickly filled with mostly favorable reactions.

“I was watching it live while it happened, fan @nicholkola noted on Reddit. “… she’s a professional so she just used a mic the rest of the song.

By the time the entire set was done, I forgot about the issues. She gives her all in her performances.”

Music critics also took note.

“In a time when everything is only getting uglier, a striking vision like Gaga’s is critical in proving that beauty is not lost; it’s just harder to find,” senior staff culture writer and critic Coleman Spilde wrote on Salon.com. “Her Coachella masterpiece makes our world all the more beautiful just by existing.”

During the festival’s first weekend, Sen. Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance during singer songwriter Clairo’s set on April 13, telling the crowd, “You can turn away and ignore what goes on, but if you do, you do it at your own peril.”

The annual festival features artists across genres including vintage, alternative, indie pop, R&B, electronica and more.

Police Sgt. Abe Plata said Thursday’s camper arrivals went smoothly, and no significant traffic issues were reported. That was a sharp change, when many motorists waited for hours in long lines to access the camping area.

Festival organizers said they added more toll plazas for this weekend’s event to avoid a repeat of those waits.

Up to 40,000 campers were expected on-site, while thousands more stayed in area hotels or traveled daily via Interstate 10, ride-shares or private vehicles, organizers said.

Arrests for various, usually misdemeanor, violations are common during the celebrations, officials noted. The number of arrests during the first weekend increased by 17 percent compared to last year’s event, according to the Indio Police Department. (CNS)
