Cali's annual Coachella Arts festival had a lot to live up to this year in particular. Performing acts included Lil B and Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All who have currently been the talk of the hip-hop community, the energetic dance-punk duo Death From Above 1979 reunited for the first time in years, Canadian now-superstars Arcade Fire fresh off their grammy victory, and of course, Kanye flipping West. To put it simply, they all delivered. Coachella '11 may go down as one of the most memorable and quality music festivals in recent memory, in most part thanks to the standout, potentially career-defining moments of the headline acts Arcade Fire and Kanye West. You can view their 100-minute performances below:

Call me a fanboy if you must, but I really felt The Strokes delivered. They didn't steal the show by any means, but they just played a great, consistent set and served as a nice lead-in for Kanye.
