So what do you do when 2 of your favorite bands are playing in the same time slot?
This happens a lot at outdoor festivals like
Coachella & ACL and it seems like they are playing at opposite ends of the park every time. I think I lost 2 pounds just by running around all weekend. True Story. Anyway, Fred wanted to see The Flaming Lips so we (Jacob &I) split up with him to catch
Switchfoot first because I have never seen them live at an outdoor fest and also because they are more upbeat. Then we ran to hear the end of
Band of Horses set which was mellow & awesome! It worked out perfect since I heard the songs I wanted to hear most!
I love love love his voice!
OMG so the girl standing next to me did not understand personal space! and she had a lot of room!
she kept slapping and flipping her hair in my face, and she almost slapped me with her paper fan over and over! I seriously thought there was a hidden camera or that one of my friends told her to do it.
I just kept looking at Jacob laughing in disbelief...then she walked off.
and Band of Horses is such pretty music.
So I pretty much hang out with whatever friend wants to see the same band as me, sometimes I roll solo because it's all about the music at ACL! I think all my friends feel the same way.
Sorry my photo's were so far away at Band of Horses I could only get clearish screen shots.
I think they came out pretty cool though. That's one of the sucky things when you catch the end of a show. You're not likely going to get to the front especially with a crowd like this one.
Anyway, I don't like to be that pushy, rude, sweaty, stinky person forcing their way through all the people who earned their spot waiting in the front. I won't say I never do that, but I always say excuse me, sorry, can I get through, and i look for an opening, and I ALWAYS WEAR DEODORANT!!!
Have you been to any outdoor music festivals lately?
Were you at ACL?
more ACL posts coming.....
