HIGHLIGHTS
- Yeasayer - They were on my list of "must sees" and I had pretty high expectations for them, and yet they still blew me away. (Dancing in the rain to Yeasayer = favorite Pitchfork moment of 09) Way to be really awesome Yeasayer and turn an existing fan into a exciting fan. :)
- Final Fantasy- I love a good one-man band, and what Owen Pallett did to that violin was inspiring.
- The Labels - not any one band, but the many booths of labels representing. I have especially warmer and fuzzier feelings now towards Polyvinyl, Cardboard Sangria, Hometapes, and AEMMP Records.
BIGGEST DISSAPOINTMENT
- The Walkmen - Not only are they "above" playing the song that made them famous, but their set was blah overall. So sad.
HAPPY MOMENTS
- Seeing that Whole Foods had gigantic bags of cherries available for sale as a healthy snack. Those were delicious and refreshing.
- Perusing the poster artists - found a few promising designers.
- Randomly running into folks from Moxie Motive, Loyal Divide, Verona Red and Bully in the Hallway.
- Making the most awesome picture buttons ever. :)
- Pretty much every moment, as music festivals are my heaven-on-earth.
SAD MOMENTS
- Realizing that the crazy, colliding fans I burried myself in for Matt & Kim actually squished all the ripe and juicy cherries in my purse, getting cherry juice on my purse, my pants, my sweater, my hand, my boyfriend, my phone, etc.
- Losing one of the most awesome picture buttons ever. :(
- Watching some drunk loser cut off some handicap guy waiting to use the handicap porta-potty. All the folks in my porta-potty line gave him the stink eye when he got out. Loser.
