Pitch fork. . . .

This past weekend I stumbled onto a free ticket to pitch fork from one of Nikki's friends.

I missed out on Public Enemy the first night but I got to see some other really good shows.

Saturday it was a bit rainy at first.  Things got better as the day progressed though.




Saturdays line up was pretty good:
Animal Collective 
The Hold steady 
!!!
Vampire Weekend
Fleet Foxes
Caribou
Jay Reatard
The Ruby suns



Caribou was the first show we watched.  They were probably my favorite show throughout the festival too.



Like I said earlier, it rained.  Dirt plus rain equals mud.  Mud plus drunk people plus dancing equals a mess.  Which is exactly what happened.





It was hot during the day but in the afternoon sunset it got quite nice.




Sunday was an exciting day.

Sundays lineup that i witnessed:

Spoon
Dinosaur Jr.
Spiritualized 
Ghostface and Raekwon
Les Savy Fav
The Apples in Stereo
The Dodo's 



Ghostface and Raekwon were so good.  Everyone says you need to see part of Wu before you kick the bucket to experience real hip-hop.  I agree with that fully.  It just sucked to hear them say after the show they would be signing autographs for a small fee.  

I was like mo fucka what you say?  Really man?


But whatever that shit happens.








Enjoy,


Brock

Caribou is really good. I saw them at this church turned into art gallery a while ago. There was a big neon jesus with neon blood.
