phishtaper Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 anyone catch the besnard lakes? one of my highlights. fwiw, in the few days following the festival every year, I can never remember what I liked until someone asks did you like X? and then I realize, yeah, I loved them! my feet hurt. a lot.

timouse Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 we only went for sunday...weren't originally even planning on going, but surprise tickets appeared. caught the Band workshop at the island stage, and was suitably impressed. i think i could have left after that and been content. then lunch, then the slip. as a lot of other folks, i was pretty underwhelmed. there was a weird delay outside of the tent that rendered a lot of rhythmically sophisticated grooves kind of washed out. much better inside the tent. meh.the 4-5 island stage "gourds and guitars" was awesome. we caught the organic groove workshop in the drum tent next, then dinner (diana's!!) which we enjoyed listening to vieux farka toure, who was to my ears what tandoori naan was to my mouth.ron sexsmith was solid as always, and ani was, well, ani. i was so glad to be there even if it was just for a day. problems aside, hillside is one of my favourite festivals.
