I wonder if Run DMC now say "There's two of us but we're not The Beatles."

I skipped Day 1 but went down for Day 2 - very well put together and run festival for the most part. I basically alternated between the Liberty and Rocky stages, saw at least a little of everyone (skipped Drake completely though and never made it to the EDM tent). Loved The Hives' set as well as Gary Clark, Jr. Could only take about three minutes of Odd Future before I bolted and got dinner a bit earlier than planned. Felt a little sad for X - they were alright, but it really felt like their time had passed. Pearl Jam rawked like always. Regret that I never made it to check out the unadvertised local (I think) bands at the third stage, what I heard from afar from there sounded interesting. Hope there is a next year for this fest with a good lineup.

I know X are considered icons and what not but does anybody actually listen to them or give a shit?
Same for Rita Ora.

Odd Future was the best part of Day II. Really great festival organized very well and quite comfortable. It's probably outside the budgets of misplaced Midwestern hipsters.

Does Russell Simmons care who killed his DJ yet or is he too busy counting his money and hanging out with Occupy lemons? SPOON!!

I love the clueless guy next to the green dude. Sort of sums up the festival.

I don't get how no one else sees how contrived Drake is. Canadian Jewish suburban kid throwing the word 'nigga' around like it's no big deal.
