Bloc Party
The Shins

Kongos (my favorite)
Mumford and Sons

Saturday 09/24
Bob Moses
Crystal Castles (2 songs - wanted to see Die Antwoord)
Die Antwoord (2 songs - wanted to see Empire of the Sun)
Empire of the Sun (4 songs - too crowded)
Jane's Addiction (only 3 songs - we were tired)

Sunday 09/25
Lany
Lewis Del Mar
Nothing but Thieves
Atlas Genius
Band of Skulls

Much drinking, gambling and eating of pancakes!

Going again next year. May even buy property.

Rock med covers this now. They take a small team, but you gotta cover travel. I think rm covers room & some food.  I'll consider it next year, given your glowing DOOM report.

I raided a Rock Med booth for earplugs, gave a $5 donation.

We bought tickets for 2017 - be there my brother!

Did you ask for me? If any of you see Rock Med, you should ask for me and tell them that I saved you from some outrageous acid trip 20 years ago - then make up the most outrageous acid trip you can. Every time someone tells such tales, an angel gets its wings. Or at least, dm gets a drink. 

Gotta build each other's legends, doncha know? No one else will.

Srsly tho, was rm well staffed?
