ACL Part 3: Sunday

Ahhhh by Sunday I was hurting and I knew this was going to be the longest day of them all. I was determined to make it all the way to like 3 am or so. Anyways, it was hot as fucking balls out. This was the only day that I had to at times, hide from the sun. The weather forecast called for rain all day, yeah, well it didn't. Regardless, this sadly was our last day of the festival and we were not going to let anything stand in our way of a good time.

((I don't have pics from this show because my laptop has been compromised at this moment))

1. Arcade Fire ::: By far the best show of the entire festival, and I definetly feel confident saying that. I kinda anticipated it being so, but I figured I set them up for failure. I have missed AF every single time they have come to Philly for either a bridal shower, wedding, bachelorette party, story of my life, blah blah blah. Well...I got to see them and they were everything I wanted them to be. Plus, we were able to meet back up with the heathens who are awesome so...I would say..."watch out for the baby." Show was amaze, enough said.

2. Fleet Foxes

3. Bomba Estereo ::: This was definetly a surprise hit for me. We decided to grab some foods before Elbow and stumbled across this band. They were playing on a real small stage near the food tents which was not really getting much attention. Well...this group sure got mine. I am a sucker for latin music, so I was instantly attracted, but that has nothing to do with the fact that their sound was amazing. I would highly suggest checking them out.

4. The Head and the Heart ::: I've got way to much love for their awkwardness.

5. The Walkmen

6. Elbow

7. Mariachi El Bronx ::: more latin music that I stumbled upon and loved.

8. AWOLNATION ::: This was the show to see of the day, according to everyone else! Nothing about them interest me and we decided to leave this show after like two songs. People were in shock when we told them we left, I am still confused as to why. Cheeseballs is the only thing that comes to my mind.

9. Empire of the Sun ::: terrible, terrible, terrible. I do believe that the stage they were on had something to do with it. But not everything. Lower your bass.


And then it all ended. And a week later, I am sick and still trying to recover. I will forever be greatful though for my first, and definetly not my last, ACL experience.
