And, to think, we were on the same page the whole time. I agree with basically everything you said. Yay for resolved disputes!

If they filled the Gorge campground with 25% Tool fans, 25% Radiohead fans, 25% Phish fans, and 25% Dave Matthews Band fans, then put hidden cameras everywhere, this WOULD be the greatest documentary of all time. They would have to stagger the camping spots though, so that each fan of said band it surrounded by fans of the other three bands.
This is how I would see it unraveling. The Phish fans strike first, and tell each other about how annoyed they are that the Tool fans are bonging beers and screaming, "WHY CAN'T WE NOT BE SOBER." Problem is, the Phish fans will be so stoned, they won't realize they are talking about their annoyance out loud. The Tool fans hear the negative comments, and beat the crap out of the Phish fans, because having long hair without wearing black is not acceptable in their community, and saying "dude" in a drawn out fashion is not as cool as yelling, "DUDE."
Upon the first sight of violence, the Radiohead fans spend the rest of the weekend hiding in their tents texting each other about World of Warcraft, the best Radiohead anagram, and if Laura Croft is hotter than Angelina Jolie.
After seeing the Phish fans get pummeled, and not ever meeting the Radiohead fans, the Dave Matthews Band fans put on their black polo shirts and kiss up to their neighbors looking for the next great band to discover. Dave Matthews Band fans are always looking to follow the trend, and at this point, the Tool fans are dominating the campground. They quickly become Tool fans, only 10 years older than the average Tool fan. They invite the Tool fans to enjoy the Air Conditioning in their SUVs, smoke their Marlboro Lights, drink their Heinekens and wine coolers, and flirt with their wives. Five drunk DMB fans willingly accept being branded with the word "Tool" on their shoulder, all while hugging their new best friend.
The end.

For my money, the most nauseating people are either the '311' or 'Sublime' fans.
They suck. Hard.

I fucking love juggalos. Idiocy is bliss. I envy those little rascals for not caring about anything but Faygo, hatchets and facepaint.
Totally harmless compared to Tool fans, if you ask me.

So I'm assuming there are no Camera Obscura fans on this board? I loved their set, and danced with a pretty girl from California who I'll never meet again.

Man, I didn't notice that part. Maybe I was just too excited to see New Pornographers afterwards that I put on rose-colored-glasses, if you will, for them.

I guess I must have been too stoked on dancing with a pretty girl during Camera Obscura to notice. Either way, I'm not a big Band of Horses fan and have been listening to Camera Obscura for about 4 years so it was a pretty good decision for me, regardless.

Everyone else in my crew was saying that BoH was pretty epic though. That's the thing about festivals, you can watch bands that you're not really into and somehow just really dig it.
