my favorite shows were the national (who i thought put on the best show of the weekend), m83, final fantasy, woman, grizzly bear (though had sound equipment difficulties)... walkmen, frightened rabbit, lindstrom, and flaming lips were also good, also liked what i heard of beirut's set and blitzen trapper... enjoyable weekend

No, I consider the Jesus Lizard a noise rock band.

out of the bands i saw... think it goes something like this (for me anyway). yeasayer/m83 (too hard to decide, both shows were fantastic) > grizzly bear > Lindstrom > Frightened Rabbit (that drummer; my second time seeing them and I'm confident I will NEVER get tired of that drummer) > Flaming Lips > The National > Final Fantasy.

yeasayer killed it; the rain and then sun coming out during Sunrise was an amazing moment. grizzly bear was also great, and The Very Best >>> The Flaming Lips

I wish the sound & production crew weren't doing such a shitty job for Grizzly Bear's sound...They were amazing, but they also had immense sound difficulties...and the flaming lips were somewhat boring, but it was a fun show.

I know. I mean, I guess you could count Fucked Up being the "metal" portion of Pitchfork, but there was no band on the list that had that "edge" I guess. Next year, Pitchfork should try and book ISIS. Or Pelican at least.

Ditto on the Lips times 3. The only thing I kind of didn't like was the slowing down of "Fight Test" and "Yoshimi Pt. 1." I kept waiting for the songs to really kick in, and then they were over.

Agree 100% with Ashley. Maybe it's because it was my first time seeing them.

these days the flaming lips are all spectacle and little substance. i'm old, i know it, but i wish you guys could've seen 'em at palooza '94. funnest "pit" i've ever been in... and on pavement on the side stage, no less. no wayne b.s., they just tore through the set like it was their last show ever or something.
