Trying to get to Neumo's from the two main beer garden entrances was RIDICULOUS.

I was 20 last year and had no problem seeing Girl Talk. Here's a hint: THOSE WRISTBANDS SLIDE RIGHT FUCKING OFF. Or, if you're fat and/or your hand isn't flexible, just find some tape.

And I wholeheartedly agree that Saturday was much better. And Fleet Foxes were nice. And I agree, I would like a discount for not being able to see about half of the great bands that are playing.
