IHeartRadio Festival Archives

Chris Martin of Coldplay hits the stage in Las Vegas

Las Vegas is all about the 2014 IHeartRadio Festival taking place last night and tonight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

As most know, this is one of the biggest music events of the year – in great part because the line up of artists is as diverse as you can get.

Last night saw Taylor Swift open the show with five songs, including her current radio hit “Shake It Off.” Swift was followed by MY favorite band, Coldplay, who rocked the house with five of their best, closing with the current “Sky Full of Stars.”

Then came Nicki Minaj, Motley Crue, Usher and Ariana Grande.

Tonight’s line up will see One Direction, Calvin Harris, 50 Cent and Lorde take the stage.

One of the best things about the Festival, in addition to the diverse line up, is that each act only does a few numbers. So, if you’re ADD like me, just wait a few minutes for the next act if the current music isn’t your thing.

I didn’t attend in person because I wasn’t feeling up to being in a crowd of 20K last night.

BUT – we all can watch LIVE from the comfort of our homes on Yahoo Screen Live, which is where I was last night bouncing to the beat with Coldplay with Bruno the wonder dog.

If you missed last night, take a second to hit the link for Yahoo and enjoy the music.

Check a few pictures from Coldplay’s set last night.

Happy Saturday, kids!
