Thumbs Up:

• Working at the HBC booth means that I got in free all weekend
• Cap’n Jazz’s first full set in 15 years! They were awesome – played everything I wanted to hear, and they all looked like they were having a lot of fun.
• Devo – Costume changes, great use of the video screen on-stage, highly entertaining
• Cake was surprisingly good for a band that I haven’t paid attention to in 12 years. I’m going to check out some of their newer stuff, it was really good.
• Cirque Berzerk was beautiful. They had multiple performances every day – I wish I would have been able to check them out more than once.
• Mucca Pazza was definitely fun.
• Had too much iced yerba mate, and felt like I was cracked out for the weekend.

Thumbs Down:

• Only 1 water fountain, bottled water costing $3 each, no way to refill them.
• Heat. I guess it could have been worse, but it was HOT.
• 4 stages, most bands that I wanted to see were playing at the same time as another band I wanted to see.
