Horror-punk legends The Original Misfits took the stage at Coachella late Saturday night (April 12th), ripping through a 20-song set at the massive festival in Indio, California.
The band launched into “Death Comes Ripping” to kick off the set, which began with a few technical issues but sorted itself out a few songs in. Frontman Glenn Danzig engaged the crowd throughout, at one point asking if there were any goth girls in the audience before playing “Vampira,” a song about the “original goth girl.”
A circle put soon broke out, as the Misfits played favorites like “Where Eagles Dare,” “Mommy, Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?,” “Earth A.D.” and “Skulls.”

Prior to “Horror Business,” Danzig introduced the band, featuring classic members Jerry Only (bass) and Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein (guitar) alongside Dave Lombardo (drums) and Acey Slade (guitar).
Danzig and company closed out the main set with the all-time classic “Last Caress,” with the crowd singing along to every demented word of the song. Amid chants of “one more song,” the Misfits returned for an encore of “20 Eyes.”
Misfits will return to Coachella for next week’s repeat weekend, but have no shows scheduled beyond that. The band has been playing sporadic concerts since reuniting in 2016.
