You know, you could've just told me we saw him and that I loved it and I probably would've put him on my top five list. I was surprised to hear we even made it in for Joy Formidable.

But really, I owe you a beer or four for the awesome job you did at taking care of me that afternoon. If you're in town for the Arkells on Friday, I'll be buying you drinks for sure.


I was actually considering telling you that you saw him, but I couldn't lie about something like that.

Cody deserves a lot of credit for making sure you made it in. You were basically hanging off him the whole way there. I don't know what he said to security to let you through, but they were looking at you pretty sideways for a while.

Probably 'cause they could see the bags of booze falling out of my bra.

I didn't miss a second of Jack White, I caught 30 minutes of Wolfgang before Jack came on.


5. Joy Formidable - They are like, awesome and stuff. So entertaining for such a short set. Also, why was the crowd so small for this?
Because everyone was at fun. It was pretty crowded.

I wandered by Fun. after and the crowd didn't look massive, but I guess for a set at that time it was pretty big. I saw 'We Are Young' and fully expected the crowd to belt it out, but that didnt really happen. My friend said they were underwhelming, but I did meet a guy who said they were his favourite.

We ran over for the end of fun. and it was the most disappointing climax. I was looking for FD and he was looking for me and we both realized it was a dream. But then we met at Feist and rawked.

I'm also surprised to see people without Tenacious D in their top 5. How was everyone NOT blown away by that set??

I'm never surprised by people's tastes on here anymore. I literally did not see a single minute of the bands in badchoices' top 5.

The D was as awful as I knew they would be. I fucking hate that "band" so much.

Oh I did see Jack Black and some of the band throwing frisbee in the pit at like 11:10am on Monday. We watched him from the hill for like ten minutes before people started to realize who he was and take pictures.

Yeah I guess he was hanging out until around 12:30 or so. Really sucks that I missed him.

That is a beautiful thing if we can both love a festival so much and have completely different experiences. Already saving for next year!!!

I thought The D was pretty good but only caught 4 songs. I wish I would have been able to see the older songs but I had to get over to Spiritualized. God damn Mogwai!!!

Anybody catch the Deer Tick covers set? I would've like to seen that had I known about it, though I doubt it would've trumped my decision to see Ted Leo.

1. Jack White – It was everything that I had hoped for, and more. The entire band are fucking mental musicians.
2. Bon Iver – I expected it to be good because I like their music. I did not expect it to be as epic as it was. It was the perfect set to sit on the ledge of the hill and have their sound massage my eardrums.
3. The D – So many of my childhood dreams were fulfilled during that set. This includes singing along to Tribute. Closing out with Double Team was amazing too.
4. Explosions in the Sky – I was weary about missing the last half of Girl Talk, but I was quickly consumed by their loud wall of sound.
5. Beardyman – Why didn't this dude headline the nanner shack? Best show I saw in the tent all weekend.


I didn't see a single show I was unimpressed by. Except Pretty Lights. I danced, so it wasn't that bad. I just expected much more based on previous experiences of his shows. He seems to have taken a mainstream approach to his music.

I had plenty of bro-step crammed into my ears in the campgrounds, I did not need to hear more in the venue. Girl Talk or EitS would have made a more suitable headliner for Friday.

I'm still having trouble grasping the sheer amount of amazing music I experienced this past weekend.
