My friend marianne called me earlier today letting me know she is going to this with her family and the dead were rumoured to play. I have got to call her now and let her know she was right! I wanna go.
I have lived in both Ottawa and toronto and I disagree can'o'phish. The ttc is much better than Ottawa's transit system in my opinion. It's not the drivers fault but when I lived and worked in ottawa a 10 minute drive would take me 2 buses and 50 minutes to get to work by transit. In toronto a 15 minute drive takes me 10-20 minutes by transit.
One of the best run festivals I have been too. Lots of fun. However, hopefully more gets added. This lineup isn't nearly as good as last years. Which it will but hopefully bands like the flaming lips, dark meat, etc...
I can't go back to bonnaroo after rothbury. The music was amazing and I did have a good time. But the weather was just too hot and the crowd got to me. I thought there were lots of rude people and people barging there way up to the front. And I thought the crowd was sketchy. Rothbury was the least sketchy festival I have ever been too which say's a lot for the size of the fest. Maybe, it is just because it was its first year though.
I hope this strike ends especially for matt and steph who are amazing people and amazing parents. Also, for rubberdinghy who i am sure is an amazing driver.
