Red Red Meat were the highlight of the day for me; I wanted it go on forever. Pretty much agreed on Foals and No Age (meh and bleh, respectively). And Green River, they totally kicked ass.

And you didn't smell any weed? Woah, you were standing in the wrong places! Actually, I wish I were standing where you were. The cordoned off smoking area (and no smoking elsewhere) certainly made it more of a risk for those who indulged, so I think it was less prevalent than at some festivals.

Agree wholeheartedly about what a good idea it was for Sub Pop to close with Wolf Parade and what a good idea it was for Wolf Parade to play so much material off their new album. They clearly show influences of the label's roots while sounding entirely original.

(With so many pieces of Shins there, it was a tad surprising that they couldn't at least have been dragged onstage for a guest appearance.)

So did the Stranger try to find the least educated person possible to report on this event or what? i mean it doesn't take a genius to recognize that No Age was joking and did not in fact play a Nirvana cover... It just makes the ignorance displayed in the writing about Red Red Meat, Foals and Beachwood Sparks all the more irritating for some reason...
