rock 'n roll

with summer, comes music festivals. this year was the first year for the kanrocksas music festival. i was a little hesitant to see how it would play out, but i was pleasantly surprised. the festival was two days - friday and saturday. evan and i took off a half day on friday to see the lineup and start our musical weekend.

friday schedule:

fitz and the tantrums

artic monkeys

primus

THE flaming lips

eninem

 saturday schedule:

GRACE POTTER and the nocturnals

cage the elephant

flogging molly

a perfect circle

THE black keys

MUSE

  

not a single artist disappointed us. they were all amazing. i was very impressed with fitz and the tantrums. i'd never seen primus, and they were super entertaining. the lips, per usual, put on a fantastic show. i was stoked for saturday. if you haven't already, you NEED to go see grace potter and the nocturnals. no excuses. the boys from the black keys put on a nasty, gritty, sexy show. so much sound for two boys from ohio. and muse...man oh man can matt rip on that guitar. all in all, i thought it was a fantastic lineup and festival. i hope it comes back next year, with killer bands and even more local food vendors.
