Since I’d already been up for several hours at 10:30am, I think it is ok to have a beer before noon.
The campsite is so clean and structured, all in tidy rows!
Major Lazer was amazing! Everyone was crazy and took their shirts off halfway through the set!
We got up at cracker dawn, stopped by the store to pick up food, drinks and ice and arrived at the festival site at 10am. We were welcomed by a 3h line to get in. The security checked every single bag (almost) in every single car to make sure no glass or sharp objects were brought in – awesome! Good thing to know we are safe at the festival though.
We made it in, pitched our tent, and off we go!
Started off mellow with Youth Lagoon – last time I saw him was in a tiny record store in Echo Park.
The snail liked him!
Only a few hours into day one and my feet are already super dirty! Doesn’t hurt that I always need 5000 layers of sunblock on my feet that seems to attract dirt.
We saw Johnny Marr which was really good, he played a bunch of old Smiths songs, and that’s always welcome!
An Elvis hybrid was there!
The classic festival ground photo… I probably wanted to take a photo of something else.
Lee Scratch Perry was most likely very high, such a character!
Stone Roses played all their hits, but were still fairly bad. I always think it’s hilarious to watch the sign language person by the side of the stage though, always entertaining!
We made up silly names, I was Handi Cap, thinking I was hilarious!
Icona Pop played at the Troubadour tonight, they were awesome!
They invited everyone up on stage during the last song, so much party!

Nik West apparently just came back from touring with Prince and was playing base and sang a couple of songs for us.
I did not grow up with Halloween and don’t care to much about it, but it is fun to socializing with friends! We went to KCRW’s Masquerade Ball this year.
A bunch of bands and DJ’s were playing, Z-trip did an amazing set!
Patrick Wolf made an awesome acoustic show in the church!
This is definitely a festival worth checking out again next year!
