[show #131] 85 degrees on the first day but the promoters did a great job having plenty of vendors available so we were able to keep hydrated and fed. And with the RFID bracelets, it moved things along perfectly. There were 3 stages in all, 2 on the east side of the complex, 1 on the west. It might have sucked if I knew all the bands but I didn't so it just required a bit more exercise to see the bands we wanted. I was so impressed with this first day. Pussy Riot were a good electronica group with odd songs like Bad Apples. They wore fluorescent ski masks and were very political, which basically means anti-government. Portugal, the Man fit perfectly for this type of show. Paramore put on a great rock show with Hayley Williams still rockin' it. And The Killers absolutely astonished me with a GREAT performance. Exactly what a rock show should be. People singing and dancing along. THOUSANDS of people. And the band even pulled a fan up on stage to play drums for a song. Awesome!
