BECK COVERS PRINCE AT ARCADE FIRE'S COACHELLA SHOW

The set also featured two Daft Punk look-alikes playing 'Get Lucky'

Arcade Fire's streak of wacky concert bobblehead guest appearances remains intact. Toward the end of their headlining Coachella set Sunday night, the band brought out alt-rock legend Beck (wearing an Easter-appropriate Pope Francis bobblehead) for a cover of Prince's 1981 funk classic "Controversy," as Billboard reports.
This wasn't the band's first time tackling the Purple One, having already covered "Controversy" last month in Minneapolis.

During that performance, frontman Win Butler displayed another strange fashion accessory, donning a digital head-box which displayed the faces of Prince and Michele Bachmann. (That wild set also featured snippets of Lady Gaga's "Do What U Want," Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling," Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine" and Aerosmith's "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing.") Arcade Fire also squeezed in one more goofy collaboration at Coachella 2014 – sort of. Earlier in the set, Butler promised the band would be bringing out "some very special guests," and some audience members claimed to hear him say "Paft Dunk," a gibberish variation on electronic kings Daft Punk.

This led to a slow-motion cover of the latter band's 2013 smash "Get Lucky," featuring two performers dressed in Daft Punk-styled robot costumes. Given Arcade Fire's recent on-stage silliness, it's unclear whether the two robots were actually the real Daft Punk members (Thomas Bangalter and Guy Manuel de Homem-Christo) or just a pair of costumed roadies.

The first option seems unlikely: During the band's previous Coachella set, Butler poked fun at the fest's EDM-heavy lineup by dedicating a song to "all the bands at this festival playing real instruments." Add Beck and "Paft Dunk" to the ever-growing list of performers who've graced the stage with Arcade Fire on their Reflektor tour: The band's first Coachella set featured Debbie Harry on a cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass"; meanwhile, earlier this month, Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas helped fake out an Argentine audience by donning a Win Butler bobblehead.
