I saw some photos of the crowd and almost had an axiety attack just looking at it! SHIT TON of people in that heat…
That is the extent of my experience with the matter. I got an email from Jessica Horine this morning implying that she went.

Kara went all three days. I met up with her Saturday night and she said she LOVED it. She stated Daft Punk alone was worth the price of the ticket. No pics as far as I know but maybe she just hasn’t posted them yet.
And John Nagy went and is supposed to give me a full report but haven’t talked to him yet.
Thats all I got.

a little fish told me that polyphonic spree won over some converts, and that lcd soundsystem brought it. also, daft punk was supposed to be a highlight.

I went on Sat. Overall it was good. I liked the Yeah Yeah Yeahs the best as I had not seen them live before and Karen O put on a great if overly dramatic performance. Interpol was also very good, if stiff. Most of the other performers I had seen before (Clap Your Hands and Cold War Kids just the night before), so there wasn’t anything special for me otherwise.
The thing that blew me away was the fact that for $75,000(!) you could rent a private cabana for the weekend that sorta overlooked one of the main stages. And, they were sold out.
Have your say

Whatcha' been listening to?
- By: Dana - Issues: If we were to steal the Jeep, we should probably get it tonight and leave from the burbs in the morning. I would be interested in stopping in Madison on the way back and perhaps catching some early din din with friends. Matt are we being total jerks and overrunning your trip?
- By: jj - What happened to the 'I'm listening to this' crap? Tom turned me onto the new Islands. The second half of the album is good in an old destroyer sort of way. The first half is more poppy, but still good. Also - the new Spiritualized is lovey-dovey-druggy good.
- By: Joe - I'm enjoying the Blind Pilot album.
- By: Joe - Wye Oak - Civilian's pretty good.
- By: LB2 - I'm not the biggest fan of night skiing either so if you two get a vehicle I'm in.
- By: martellion - I'm enjoying the new animal collective and robyn hitchcock. anybody else interested in his show on april 18th @ epiphany?
- By: Matty H - You're being a jerk. Your sisters aren't, though. No, it's all good. Dona was the one who messed up all the time and stuff. She's trying to see if she can move her brunch to Sunday so we might be able to leave in the AM now. It sounds like you guys might want to drive separate regardless?
- By: tommyslax - STOP TEMPTING GRAVITY!
- By: tommyslax - Sunset - The Glowing City is tops for me right now. The new Stereolab, Chemical Chords, has been on repeat for a while too.
- By: tommyslax - Seriously, every last one of you should find this record. The Glowing City. by {{{Sunset}}} It is fantastic. Here's a couple reviews: http://www.austinsound.net/2008/08/14/sunset-the-glowing-city-autobus/ http://tinymixtapes.com/Sunset,6667 It's hard to compare it to anything, it has a bit of a Bowie/Kinks vibe, and whoever plays guitar definitely steals a few tricks from Jonny Greenwood, but it's really jammed with tons of engaging and multi-faceted parts and hooks galore. It's long, but there's not much wasted movement or repetition. It's exactly what a rock record should be, and will probably be my #1 at the end of the year.
