 off to day two.

Today is definitely the "meh" day. I'm going to try and see Spank Rock, Booka Shade, Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, and some of Chromeo, but I *am* doing the Bloc Party/CSS aftershow party at the House of Blues.

i'm at the dell lounge while Explosions in the Sky are playing in the background.
 
 Fantastic day so far. Haven't been disappointed with the bands I've seen...Margot, The Ting Tings, Dr. Dog, Gutter Twins, Devotchka...
 
 I agree that Radiohead show was an experience. Probably the best I've seen them. Way better than the Hell on Earth show back in May   :roll:  
 
 Caught 3 songs of the Go Team! (horrible), 2 songs of Cat Power (horrible as well), The Kills were great, Bloc Party (mehhhh).

highlight of the festival so far: booka shade.

Soooo, Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings invited me on stage. I did my thing, no doubt. Highlight of Day 2 if you ask me!
 
 Rage was okay. Spank Rock was great. Booka Shade was ace spectacular! DJ Danny Masterson, what a joke. Uffie, was LAME with a capital LAME. I think she's the worst thing to grace Lolla stages in a while. She's fucking HORRIBLE. WHORIBLE.

Great day -- nice blue skies;  Worse schedule grid than the other two days.   Highlights gotta include Slash playing w/ Perry at Perry's Tent.  Toadies rocked; Rage delivered.

[rich_WDC]

Probably futile...but.... DC Meetup?   I'll hang around the cirque tent to right of Perry's around 5:30-6, before Love & Rockets.    Grey pocket T.

Uffie is indeed awful and Ed Banger should be ashamed for bringing such unbearable pain unto our ears. Come to think of it, I'm growing tired of and am losing my patience with Ed Banger in general.

[PigIron]

Best bands so far: Battles, Radiohead.  
 
 Damn, its tough to see everyone.  Fun festival though.

oh no he didn't?!?   OH YES HE DID!!!  set your i-can't-believe-it meters to "epic".   my new highlight of the day, possibly the festival.  sharon didn't so much invite him on stage as give in to the inevitable: he was getting up there, it was only a question of how.  i have video too, need to up it to youtube.

Why not? I'll be around there too, setting up for NIN. Umm, I'm the guy in the pic he linked. I have on a Breeders '95 tee. Come say hi!

the drummer's expression is a priceless "does this guy need to be tackled or what?"
