I did a quick google to read festival reports to try and be reminded of why the kanye debacle is such a big fucking deal and still have no idea. The set was supposed to start at 3 in the morning and didn't start till 5...I'm a serious Kanye fanboy but I would have given up way before that jesus. I'm not saying kanye wasn't a dick for doing that but wtf is wrong with you that you wait until 5 in the morning for a performer and then hold a grudge about it for 3 years. It seems like your own damn fault for staying up until 5 in the morning
but more importantly it's one fucking show! get over it

He was an hour late to get on, but Pearl Jam also played an hour later so if you were expecting things to run on time, your fault. Also the main satge has a 90 000 capacity, go see some Sigur Ros, some Lupe, some Chromeo, or some mother fuckin' Phil Lesh then check in with Kanye, at 3:30am you will be really close! |

The Sigur Ros set was amazing that year!

That (er This?) Tent was a lantern filled spacecraft by the end of thier set. Also Kanye was on before 5am because I had left Phil Lesh around 4:30am and by the time I was up to the What Stage he was already going. AND IT WAS AWESOME!

I'm pretty sure it was the 'That Tent'... the one closest to the Ferris Wheel.

Those "CRAZY" tents. Did you catch BSS on Sunday? That shit was insane! My 2nd favorite time seeing them (out of probably too many times). ibi Dreams of Pavement, ya know?

I'm moving this to the Kanye thread just in case in turns into a huge Kanye discussion in the Now Playing thread.

I'm not star struck, so I can't say I want to meet him, but getting drunk with him would be pretty interesting.

Ripping the Pofo scoring scale, this would be my scores for his five albums, if it helps lead you to the goods. I'm sure he'll play most of his new stuff though.

Cool, thanks man. I've got Graduation (mainly for Stronger...go Dr. Garbanzoure) and MBDTF so far. Looks like College Dropout is next.

Funny story (to me) about listening to Kanye today. As good as Late Registration is, the highlight of the album is Jay-Z rapping on the Remix of "Diamonds From Sierra Leone." I've always found it interesting that Kanye would allow Jay-Z's domination to be the highlight of the album, since Kanye is known as an extreme egotist.
When listening to Graduation today, I caught a line I hadn't recognized before on the song "Big Brother," which is basically an ode to Jay-Z.
"On that Diamond Remix, I swore I'd spazz
Then my big brother came through and kicked my ass"
See, Kanye is not that full of himself. Here's Jay's domination:

Ughhh that's a really good song. I was just trying to be nice by giving him a chance. I didn't think I would actually enjoy his shit.

glad you're enjoying his stuff Pea. I'm sure I've said this in here before but I fucking love 808's. I understand why a lot of people hate it but I think it's a stellar electro-pop album. Not that this is much of a selling point but shit like drake wouldn't exist without it
