Kind of a wierd year musically. Prolly the funnest over all though.
Radiohead- SUCKED BALLS!!!! Almost fell asleep about 5 times and think I did a few times. It might have been good on thursday at 4 pm but 8 pm saturday night it FUCKIN SUCKED. Worst downer at festival ever. hands down.
I am POSITIVE at least a dozen newbies ate LSD, went to radiohead, then went back to thier tents and commited suicide because they were so bugged out and in such a miserable unfestive mood!
Trey and the Trio- Pretty good. Hit some some neat jams. Trey was VERY into it. He played as good as I have seen in a long time. It wasnt too mind blowing of a show but it has BIG potential. They all jam together really well. THe duo gets trey FIRED UP. Big time. Really looking forward to the ture!
Phil and Friends- A good show. Sounds a lot different this year like it does pretty much every year with the ever changing lineup. Scofields timing was a bit off at times I thought.
Damian Marley- Sweet
Toubob Krewe- AWESOME! Deffinitly this years best band I had never heard of. Sounds kinda like a new wave santana/afro beat/reggae/world music. THey have all kind of cool homemade instruments that they ROCK OUT on. CHeck em out if u never heard of em.
Oysterhead- SUCKED. THey were rusty as hell and not raging at all. kind understandable tho since they havent played or even practiced prolly in 2 years or whatever. I left and went robert randolph who raged as usual.
SOulive- pretty weak left way
Cypress hill- sweet! put on a decent show
Tom Petty- pretty cool. The classics were highly enjoyable and well played. tom had good stage presence and talked to the audience a bunch but not too much which is a little thing but I rreally apreciated. He seemed real stoked and thankful to be there.
Bisco- SUCKED BALLS. Its just waaaaaay too repetitive and predictable for me. I enjoyed a few of thier shows 4 or 5 years ago but every time I have seen them in recent years was just straight up LAME and this was no exception.
Blackalicious- SWEET!
Neville Brothers- SWEET!
Beck- LAME
mmw- lame
BELLAFLECK- SICK! On the main stage saturday afternoon. Greeat Bella show! Really ripped it up. Big highlight musically.
moe- meh.
Grace Potter- Amazing. Moving. Emotional. Powerful. Loved it. Probly the highlight of the weekend. Played twice. Once on big stage once on tiny strip down stage.
I think thats it.
Sick time overall. FLying home after is the
****.
oh and the weather was SICK!! best roo weather ever. it was mad hot but no rain and light humidity and cool nights.
