Bolded my choices. Torn on Of Monsters and Men because I love their music but they sound exactly like the record live while Polica does interesting stuff live. I have seen Alabama Shakes already. Joy formidable should not be missed, trust me. Leading toward Araabmuzik. Only reason to see Tenacious D is to hold a spot for the headliner.

The only reason that Joy Formidable/Fun is a tossup for me is because I've seen Joy Formidable.

The Purity Ring being up against Metric and Shearwater vs. Shabazz Palaces hurts. I'm fairly undecided between Active Child and Tycho too. Otherwise, I'm happier with this year's schedule than last year's.

Purity Ring vs. Metric is tough for me. I love Shearwater so much so I am biased there. Will report back after I see Active Child on this tour. Might go Deer Tick/Wild Flag in that slot.

John C Reily playing right before Tenacious D. It's happening.
Also, fuck those conflicts monday night. I'm going to miss Nero, Mogawi, and Spiritualized.

I'm pretty happy with the schedule this time around. There will be some running around, especially on Sunday, but whatever. Feist vs. Shearwater is a pretty shitty conflict, not sure which way I'll go there. It'll be a last minute decision since I've never seen either. ReignWolf into Howlin' Rain is pretty fucking rad. Pretty much hanging at the Bigfoot stage all night on Friday for Yellow Ostrich / Mark Lanegan / EITS. Pretty much hanging at the Sasquatch stage for the better part of Saturday.
It also looks like there are a couple of good gaps for me to head back to the camp for quick beers and chow.
Got Pulp on and some schedule discussion. GREAT NIGHT!

Hooray for schedules! I'm pretty happy looking over it at first/second/third glance. I definitely had more than one instance of thinking "oh I don't want to see that band" then looking over and seeing one of my top 10 on the other stage. Man, scheduling this bitch must be so hard!
My conflicts are:
Friday: No real conflicts! I'm pleasantly surprised that Explosions In The Sky aren't overlapping Pretty Lights although I would have liked to see Beats Antique. Ah well.
Saturday: Civil Wars/Theesatisfaction/Todd Barry kinda bums me out. I for sure wanted to check all these guys out. Don't know what I'm going to choose. Also not happy about Metric/Purity Ring. I've really enjoyed those three Purity Ring songs thy I've heard but I don't know if it's worth skipping some Metric. I fucking love Metric.
Sunday: Blind Pilot/Here We Go Magic/Portlandia. Even though none of these were that high up on my "to see" list I still would have liked the opportunity. Probly gonna do half and half with the Yeti and Bigfoot for this.
Monday: Holy crap main stage this day eh? Gonna do a bit of running around but I'll probably be camped out on ledges/pit most of the day. Sorry John C. Reilly and Cave Singers but I'm way too excited to see the Silversun Pickups again!
Hey that's not bad at all! I'm sure I'm missing a bunch that I won't notice until I start colouring in my printed schedule but for now I'm a-okay with this. Way better than conflictchella!

Well, at least James Murphy is playing 90 minutes, so I can see all of Little Dragon and still see an hour of his set.
