Bumbershoot Day ZeroBumbershoot Day Zero
Bumbershoot starts today and I'm really looking forward to it. I'll be heading down around 11 this morning to check in and get my press pass, then it's off to the Mainstage for The Gossip -- I'm pretty excited for that.
Here's a list of what I'm thinking about in getting ready for this weekend:
- It's going to be near 90. That's blazing as far as I'm concerned.
- How can I see AFI, The Blood Brothers, Lady Sovereign, Badly Drawn Boy and Cloud Cult all at the same time?!? Damn you Bumbershoot organizers!
- Am I actually going to brave the Exhibition Hall (a huge cave with horrible sound) for The Thermals, Deerhoof, The Fall of Troy and Sparta? Not sure about that; see my first bullet.
- English Beat or A Tribe Called Quest?
- Will I be able to work some comedy in? Upright Citizens Brigade will be there, as well Best Week Ever Live.
- Will I have time for Flatstock? Hell yes! I'll make time.
As you can bet, it's going to be pretty crazy. I'll do my best to bring you great coverage and in as timely a manner as possible. Wish me luck and if you've got any advice, bands I should check out, etc., hit up the comments.
