The show ends at 2 AM so I would not really expect the music to start much before 9 PM. It will be a late night I think. Glad to see they added Audrye Sessions. This is actually a damn good lineup. Aaron did a great job signing up bands this year.
whoooooa. awesome!! i heard aaron mention something on his show about a crazy pre-party line up. this is rad! boo on mezzanine but whatever. vampire weekend will go on at 2 in the morning and i will wait for it and keep spending money in there, like a schmuck.
Yeah, I really wanted to like this but it was just completely impractical to see the bands I wanted to in any way that made me feel a connection to them, plus the fact that so many irritating meatheads like the same music I do was kind of depressing to me.
On the plus side, biking to and from the event was amazingly smooth. The SFBC deserves huge kudos for their valet bike parking efforts.
transportation/muni nightmare both coming a going. radiohead was great (minus the sound outages). shitty scheduling with too many bands overlapping so that you had to pick and choose whom to see. meh
