Right after I posted that, I, however, realized I've been constantly listening to the "Javelin Re-do" version. The original is good too though.

I was impressed by Vampire Weekend (even though I'm not much of a fan) and by MGMT (not a fan). They played really well and held my attention, at least.
Also, Kid Cudi was good, but I was peaking so my opinion isn't in sound judgement.

Japandroids--Wasn't to sure about going to check them out. They rocked.
Middle East--Wanted to see their set cause I love their EP and this was their first US tour. Was not disappointed. Their song Blood was one of the highlights.
Vampire Weekend--Second time I saw them and was pleasantly surprised.
The Hold Steady--They rocked it sooooooo hard.

I want to agree with you... but I honestly wasn't all that impressed with She & Him's performance. I did enjoy looking at Zooey, but apart from that? Well... I was bored.
