Oof. What a day.
It was hot.
I got sunburned worse in one day than i did from last weekend in Austin.

So much good music. So many good people. I have been spoiled over the past week.

I was planning on doing these in the order of the sets, but I really want to start with EITS, so i will. I had a backstage access pass, so I got great spots for most of these pics.

Explosions in the Sky went on almost an hour late, but they brought the good shit for sure. So here we go:

Explosions in the Sky:

The crowd was all over them and they sounded great.

Im not a huge fan of theirs, but you cant argue that they put on a great live show.

Sucks that they didn't keep to schedule. I'm a big advocate of staying on schedule. Bonnaroo would not be for me.

Status: offline 		thanks izzle.

yeah, the delay started with midlake.
they were suppose to go on and were all set up and then nothing for 30 minutes.

ghostland set up on the otehr stage and started and by then the show was almost an hour behind.

the thing that sucked the most was that EitS only got to play about 30 minutes.

but it was an incredible 30 minutes.

You're taking that really well. I would have been apoplectic.
I'm still jealous.

Oh yeah, Happy Birthday.

I love the energy and apparent thought/talent behind the Paperchase. I just don't like the music.

I already feel that way, he had a hissy fit in Houston on thursday night. This just makes me lose interest even more, I'll stick to the CDs..
