v-fest: take deux

i'm sore, oh so sore... here are the highlights:

*CSS get the award for most creative set. it was noon, and they had trees dancing on stage and there was a rainbow spandex suit over another spandex suit, all in all--awesome. they're great quote "this is the greatest day of our lives dancing with these trees onstage."
*regina specktor was only more than i hoped for. she was the opposite of amywinehouse, SO excited to be there and she had a cute little purple ruber snake.
*Panic! at the disco! and spoon were both really great sets that i didn't realize i was looking forward to.
*the yeah yeah yeahs held their position in my books. NOBODY rocks out like karen O. it just doesn't happen. i want to very badly, i think i may need more eyeliner and better tights.
*The crystal method was insanity. three words: sweat, heat, adreniline.
*Interpol put on a good show from the 2 songs i saw of it, but i was pretty much not paying attention and using the time to soak in the rain and relax after the crystal method
*Smashing Pumpkins was cool too see.. yea billy corgan! I like your shirt! i'm not gonna lie... when he said "the world is a vampire" i agreed and tried to show it despite my body rejecting itself by this point.
*311 put on a great show and you knew everyone in the crowd was having just a stupid good time. most amusing parts of this show: the dude running around in the back hitting everyone's butt and going straight up wild.

all in all the weekend was totally awesome, i couldn't have rocked harder or my body would have cracked into pieces. we ended the night going to eat at a place called paper moon with creepy dolls and toys glued all over the walls in the creepiest fashion i've ever seen. The place is 24/7 and i'm convinced it is so due to the fact that they are terrified these creatures will come to life if they close. picture it this way: the spiderbaby contraption from toy story along with all the other toys that creepy kid made everywhere all over the walls staring at you. good food. just creepy.
