Is you "fairly reliable source" the festival schedule? I don't look at shit like that. My fairly reliable source is the one dude in Portland who managed to get in line to see the Residents at Hawthorne before I did. I was halfway through writing a follow-up post which passed on the information that they were only playing for an hour because they would be sharing the bill with Swans, who would be performing a very special acoustic set, but then I realized that he was joking. Not to validate something that is clearly a joke but Gira said he was going on an acoustic tour this fall...

Bumbershoot tomorrow!! I am probably mostly excited 'cause I get to go to a festival with a bunch of you fuckers, which really is my favorite thing in the world. But I'm also pretty excited for Washed Out, !!!, Tegan and Sara, Mates of State, Matt and Kim and The Joy Formidable. Not to mention ALLIE FRICKING HYPERBOLE AND A HALF BROSCH. And like, 700 comedies. It's gonna be a fun couple of days.

Next Thursday, Friday and Saturday there are going to be free afternoon shows at Doug Fir with people who are playing real shows at MFNW. They've actually gotten a pretty great lineup this year, which means people will have to get there early to even get in to the place. Since I'm poor and not super busy, I'll probably go hang out at a few! Thursday, September 5th 10:30AM -- CHVRCHES 12:30PM -- The Baseball Project 02:30PM -- !!! 04:30PM -- Austra Friday, September 6th 10:30AM -- The Shivas 12:30PM -- Washed Out 02:30PM -- Beat Connection 04:30PM -- The Love Language Saturday, September 7th 12:00PM -- Titus Andronicus 01:30PM -- The Dodos 03:00PM -- The Thermals 04:30PM -- Sonny & The Sunsets blog.kexp.org/kexp-events/musicfest-nw-2013/?utm_source=MEL&utm_medium=42159

I'll probably be doing CHVRCHES and all those Saturday shows.
I saw The Antlers and Explosions in the Sky last year. They were only like 30 minute sets, but a free show is still a free show.

How early did you show up for those sets? Maybe about 30 minutes before they started? There weren't too many people.

She's today and I'm sooooo excited! Saw a lot of cool shit yesterday but by far the highlights (for me) were !!! (most fun dance party in a loooong time) wandering into a comedy show to realize that horatio sanz, Tim meadows, Brian huskey and Matt Besser were all just sittin' there improvin', and watching some fierce mammal battles. Super fucking fun day, looking forward to today!

Hype Machine just posted that Bradford Cox is playing a DJ set at the Soundwave tent at Bumbershoot today. Someone go see that, I bet it'll be cool!
