Good Morning, Saturday

Needless to say, it’s really hot again.

I’ve already been pleasantly surprised by the energetic openers on both stages. Free Energy (pictured) have all the moves that faux-band in Cameron Crowe’s “Almost Famous, plus a sort of metro-sexual energy that’s got all the little girls here whipped-up into a frenzy.

On the smaller balance stage, Netherfriends, a Chicago band, I believe, are making all kinds of strange noises, and jumping around a lot while they do it.

I’m awake, I’m really sweaty, and I didn’t have any good coffee today, but these two bands have me ready for a fun day.

PICKS: Real Estate, Delorean, Titus Andronicus, Dam-Funk, Raekwon, and all of the last 5 acts, even and maybe especially Freddie Gibbs.
