Bob Dylan sucks! I just can’t be nice about it any longer! I was bitter going in as Bob D just does not seem like he has any business taking over a sick spot filled with love and Sunday festival-ness by last years ACL headliner…Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. The year before that, Coldplay.
The troops headed out early yesterday so we could see Yo La Tengo at noon:30, and considering how they normally really don’t…yesterday, they totally rocked it. After that we set up shop at the main stage and decided that we would pretty much hang there for the rest of the day. You know, sit your lazy, exhausted ass in a chair, drink over-priced Bud Lite, and wait for all your homies to eventually pass you! IT WORKED!
STS9 was pretty sweet, as usual, Common…did not disappoint, Bloc Party, fanatstic again, My Morning Jacket was amazing, The Decemberists sound great, but the most disgusting show of the entire festival?
Ghostland Observatory! People, this was hot! Do you like your sick noise loud? Please check these folks out! They will not disappoint.
Bob Dylan, on the other hand..will.
EAT MORE CHICKEN CONES!
