(I wrote this and didn't publish it, about a week ago because I just haven't had time but I am still excited)
I am going to the Pitchfork Festival. So excited. There are many bands playing. I went last year and had a great, great time. Not only because of the great music and great weather did I enjoy myself so much. The festival itself is organized so well, and they don't rip you off like so many other festivals seem to do. Water and food (and beer) were all reasonably priced. This year I have a ticket to the 2 weekend days but was too slow in figuring out my plans to get the three day pass which is now sold out. Well, actually what I have is a plane ticket and a 2 day pass for the show but haven't exactly nailed down the staying situation. I got the word from a good buddies sister that it was okay to stay at her old place with her old roommate, but he hasn't responded to my email, soo..
Anyway, I unfortunately miss the All Tomorrow's Parties organized part of the festival. Last year the lineup for this part of the show was: GZA-Liquid Swords, Sonic Youth-Daydream Nation. So good.
Here are a few of the bands I am excited about seeing:
M Ward (see below for some tunes off his last excellent album)
Vampire Weekend

Spiritualized
Caribou
No Age
Spoon
Dinosaur Jr
Ghostface and Raekwon (Heard about the Strictly Built for Cuban Links followup yet!)
Bon Iver

Dirty Projectors
That's just off the top of my head, there are lots more.
Yippee!!! And for your aural pleasure some M. Ward:
To Go Home
Poison Cup
