I bet it was fantastic.awmercyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14366441009847765420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-835845587180409232.post-7884051865513975902011-09-17T12:09:35.394-07:002011-09-17T12:09:35.394-07:00I basically agree with everything everything awmer...I basically agree with everything everything awmercy wrote about the experience. I would swap out Blind Pilot (great set, super talented folks no doubt) for EMA, just because she and her band were one of the sets I was most excited about, and I felt like they delivered. Unfortunately, they were the last band at the end of a long day, and we had to split before one of us passed out. It also should be said that Sharon Van Etten's set was SPOT on, but the venue was way too big, drunk, and energized to fully experience her, and her set was very short (30-35 minutes?). So many great sets. I'm still processing it...Texhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18373892872893669132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-835845587180409232.post-16183026528339099982011-09-16T17:47:37.455-07:002011-09-16T17:47:37.455-07:00Our full list of shows was:
