DAY 4 - Femi Kuti :

Ass Parade : I predict that this drinking venue by the Main Stage shall enjoys immense popularity in the days to come. If they keep up the hereby demonstrated standards of entertainment that is ;^)

Gorillaz Sound System :

Dear Gorillaz,

I understand you want to maintain a certain mystery around the persons behind your band. I respect your choice to hide bandmembers behind a seethrough screen, and to show a dvd of your 5 year old videos as your performance. But the next time you decide to screw with the photographers who get three songs to get some usable pictures of your performance by not giving them any light whatsoever, please considder your fans in the audience. If you cut all the crowd-light in a packed, pitch black tent with a temperature of around 35 degrees, security won't be able to see your fans being trampled or overcome by heat. Have some responsibility. And while you are at it, put up a bit of a show. People pay money to come see you.
with kind regards,

Aldo Hoeben

Day 5 - Octopus (Museum of Fine Arts) :

The Offspring : The Offspring was the second-to-last performing band on the main stage. Security surrounding the gig was tight, and I was lucky to get this panorama stitched from three seperate "moments" in the concert; When Dexter stepped down a level, I got my first shove to get out of the photographers' pit.

Other than getting shoved around a bit, the gig was enjoyable. It was fun to hear Dexter refer to the young adults in front as "kids".
