Shaquille O'Neal, aka DJ Diesel, may have delivered the wildest set of the whole three-day festival.
Some 100,000 people flooded the Citi Field parking lots this past weekend for the 11th annual Governors Ball music festival. The weather totally cooperated while nearly 50 different acts performed on three big stages — and on all three days the vibes were impeccable.
"I'm having a blast," Detroit native Laura Topf told Gothamist from the front rail, right before Japanese Breakfast came on stage on Sunday. "This is a great time, all the sets today have been great. I've been here all weekend, and meeting everyone in the pit has been super fun. Everyone's so cool. Everyone's very nice, and, like, not rude.""This is maybe the biggest event I've been to since COVID," Topf added.
Saturday's musical highlights included headliner Halsey doing an emotional cover of Kate Bush's resurgent 1985 classic, "Running Up That Hill," as well as introducing her new single, "So Good." Ashnikko, who "the internet raised me," basked in the love from thousands of fans, who screamed along to every word of her brash, sex-positive songs.
