    It's a 11 day festival, so it's fantastic, also, its a 20 minute drive to my house, so I'm in my bed by midnight every night.

  • Things have been crazy lately, so I didn't get a chance to buy tickets in advance. I went to buy them at the venue today, and I was faced with the longest line I've ever seen for anything. I wouldn't have gotten through the line in time to see The Flaming Lips, and I probably would have missed a bunch of Soundgarden's set too, so I left. I was really pumped to see The Flaming Lips this year because I was out of the country when they played last year. Shitty deal today, but I'll be there tomorrow for sure.

    Wednesday night was unbelievable! I really like the new set up with the stages side by side. Back on Friday for the Black Keys.

    Think I might try - same time as Death Cab though, and I think my friends will want to see that

    How amazing were the Roots? Seriously one of the best shows I've ever seen.
