i've seen neon indian three times and every show has been as mediocre as it gets

m83 was amazing. my only complaint is they didn't play anything from dead cities, red seas, and lost ghosts.

was anyone else at savoy? holy shit that was a fun show.

^ my only real complaint as well. would have loved to hear "Run Into Flowers," or really anything from that album. also heard from several people how fun the Savoy show was.

Was at Savoy and enjoyed it; even when they went into dubstep. Just laughed it off.

The crowd was super, way better than Hopscotch crowd. Never once had people trying to run over the top of me or otherwise acting like drunks or entitled or whatever it were...

The only thing AC Ent. screwed up on was VIP access to the TWA which shorted us out of Flying Lotus after momentarily leaving. Called them the next day (couldn't have been the first), and they straightened it out completely and apologized. They just seemed to have some communication issues the first night.

Aside from that, there was no bad vibe during that entire festival and I'll be back next year as a VIP again. Totally worth the free beer and video games on Saturday and the free shirt and poster.

Only thing I could've done is not book a hotel so far out. Indigo is probably in the cards for next year...
