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.

why so serious, hipster boy? where do you live? We should meet up for a soy latte sometime and discuss Ariel Pink. i don't like ariel pink about as much as much as i don't like stupid people.

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. awful. pissed i left band of horses for a few songs to watch them. i fucking love camera obscura on album, but they are one of the most uninspired live bands i've ever seen. tracyanne is really wearing her "woe is me, my life is so dark and bleak" image way too thin. the worst part is, i expected their set to be like that but i gave them a chance anyway. 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.

I've got plenty of money you fucking vegan cunt bastard. Did you ever think for one second that these fucking "artists" are Nazi's that love to skull fuck you for your minimum wage? Listen you fucking prude bastard! I don't give a flying fuck how much money you brought down with you, or spent, or spent on some stupid tshirt for your cunt whore girlfriend who was probably getting teabagged by a frat boy in the honey bucket during Deadmau5. The fact is, is that bands like the National that whored themselves to Vevo probably have orgies in their bus every night. The two twin cunts look like douchey looking POrtland dudes straight off of Hawthorne street. Anywho, im glad you f*gs had fun! I will be having fun jacking off with the oil in the Gulf with the BP CEO's cock up my ass. I hope your TOMS got dirty as hell at the campsite and werent washable. You are the epitome of bourgeois. You think that because you shelled out some of your cash (which isn't actually that fucking much, especially if you have "plenty of money") you should be treated like a fucking king. I don't give a shit how much money you have, we drove 2400km roundtrip to get there and I'm not bitching about getting "skullfucked by artists"; welcome to the fucking music industry, if you don't like it, stay in your quaint living space downloading music for free while you cry and jerk off because you're too much of a fucking dolt to have fun at a music festival. You're fucking hilarious though, but you'd better believe that if my girlfriend (who I don't have, by the way, but nice try) was getting teabagged in a honeybucket during DeadMau5, I'd be right there beside her. <3 Also, if you're so bent out of shape about it that you went out of your way to create an account just to bitch to people who actually enjoyed the festival, you should get a hobby, or grow up.

Group A My Morning Jacket Miike Snow- Bad sound, but they were actually really good. This was my hardest group to choose from, though.
Group B Vampire Weekend The Hold Steady
Group C LCD Soundsystem Caribou
Group D Pavement The XX
Group E Tegan & Sara Girls
Group F Passion Pit She & Him
Group G Deadmau5 Japandroids
Group H Ween The Mountain Goats

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.

Actually, I think that's pretty accurate for me, too.

Did they have anything other than omelettes? I don't eat eggs, but would like to support this sooner than anything inside the venue.

just put flasks at the bottom of your bag, maybe throw some decoy beers on top.

"Molly"

yeah, it's slang for MDMA; I had never heard it before (I'm from British Columbia), but the crew from Portland we were with used the term. And jwiet050 is right about powders, it makes no sense to think that a powder of any sort is "pure" anything. But I guess if you do get good stuff, then you're in the clear.
I'll stick to mushrooms, but the rest of my crew got some good "Molly" from what I can tell. I always figured it would be spelled "Mali" though. *shrug*

I spent too much the first day because of beer (which was my own fault). Second day I did mushrooms that cost me $10, bought a single beer (9$) and a t-shirt (20$). Third day I bought a beer. I'm Vegan, so I couldn't really each much there anyway, but if you're such a pig that you can't go 12 hours without eating a 3 course meal, there's a problem. You are obviously just not a festival person, as in, you can't handle it. I made great food at my campsite with a fucking matchlight (costs and entire 30$ and lasts forever) and brought a bag of chips in for me when I got hungry.
I actually spent around 700$CDN on the whole trip and it was beyond worth it, in fact, it was the best weekend of my life. I saw bands that I will never see again, bands that's I've always wanted to see, and was pleasantly surprised by other bands.
And seriously, I work for almost Minimum Wage, and I still found it well worth it. It sounds to me like you just aren't comfortable in an outdoor environment and that you can't take care of yourself without spending shit tons of cash; in that case, I'm wondering why the fuck you thought it would be a good idea to go to a three day outdoor music festival?

super-duper ultra mega-assholes of the ages, you mean I got the bitchiest bag-searcher there was, though -- and while she managed not to find the cigarette pack that was completely filled with joints, she did find the one with a few roaches in it. she threw it away because it 'smelled like pot', and let me through the gate. ...and then I immediately reached into the garbage can and retrieved the cigarette pack with the roaches in it. she was so busy searching the bag of the person behind me she never even noticed. i win. Good. I actually brought nothing in with me aside from a couple packs of smokes and some water, but they were still assholes to me. They didn't get anything my friends brought in though.

This was definitely the best weekend of my life, too. I still have dreams about it, haha. Definitely going to become an annual Sasquatcher after this.

Monday was the worst because the people checking bags decided to be ultra-assholes.

We actually had a lot of space and made good friends with the crew behind us so we had twice as much space. We had a circle of chairs, a big tarpish tent for when it rained, and a grill/table, plus room for all of our tents. Keep in mind that we were in the far corner of overflow though, I guess.

I'll decide later, but Cymbals Eat Guitars was a huge highlight; they were really good.
