The group BIGBANG celebrated their 20th anniversary by performing as a full group on the stage of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival held in Indio, California, USA, delivering a performance lasting about an hour.
At this Coachella stage, BIGBANG appeared as a full group consisting of Seungri, Taeyang, and Daesung, performing a total of 15 songs including their representative hits such as "BANG BANG BANG," "FANTASTIC BABY," "Sober," "LOSER," "Lies," "Bad Boy," "WE LIKE 2 PARTY," and "Still Life." The performance was conducted with a combination of live band play and orchestra sessions, and in the middle of the stage, each member's solo and unit stages followed. Taeyang performed "Ringa Linga," Seungri performed "POWER," and Daesung presented "Universe," "Exceeding the Limit," and "Look at Me, Defection" in remix form. Seungri and Taeyang also performed the unit song "GOOD BOY" together.
In the latter part of the performance, during the stage of "Still Life" released in April 2022, the rap part of former member T.O.P was played as is, allowing the audience to focus on his voice. The members freely ran around the stage interacting with the audience, and Taeyang showed off his individuality by performing shirtless. Daesung drew enthusiastic responses from the local audience through the trot songs "Exceeding the Limit" and "Look at Me, Defection."
Seungri greeted fans saying, "BIGBANG is back. I hope we can sing together," and Daesung said, "I have been waiting for this moment so much. It's my first time at Coachella, so let's have fun together. I want to make it an unforgettable night." Taeyang shared his thoughts, saying, "We have reached our 20th anniversary. We have spent half of our lives together, and I'm happy to share this journey through music. This Coachella stage is very meaningful to us. Thank you for being with us." Seungri hinted, "Our full group activities won't last much longer. Please look forward to it," and added, "BIGBANG's 20th anniversary has just begun. Something huge is coming, so please wait a little longer. We will have a fun coming-of-age ceremony soon."
In this performance, Seungri showed unstable pitch and breathing in some songs, and Daesung demonstrated average live skills except for a few moments of excessive excitement on stage. Taeyang delivered stable vocals without pitch deviation and added splendid ad-libs in the final chorus of all songs.
BIGBANG debuted in 2006 under YG Entertainment, and currently, the three members belong to different agencies. YG Entertainment announced last month that they had agreed to hold a 20th anniversary tour concert with BIGBANG. BIGBANG is scheduled to perform once more on the Coachella stage on the 20th.
