Stalker.

Holy crap, great day. Nothing better than a few of your favourite bands to play back to back. Stars, Keane, The National... The National were awesome by the way. Arcade Fire was cool. I'm not a big fan of them of I enjoyed their show. Left before the encore though.

Deadmau5 won't be performing tomorrow due to exhaustion (?). I wonder who will be replacing him...?

I wouldn't mind Weezer for 2 hours.

The National and Arcade Fire were great last night.

Just got back.

Arcade Fire was retarded! WOW!

The National was incredible.

Someone hit the lead singer of Pavement in the face with a beer, what an a-hole, hope he got a beating.

The male singer of Stars kept *****ing because of technical difficulties.

The singer of Walkmen is incredible.

Oh really? I took a break when they were performing. How did he react? It was a plastic cup right?

They will leave it as is, some band will just replace Deadmau5.

How can you leave before "Wake Up"? That's a crime.

Anybody know for how long they sell tickets at the door in Osheaga?

I was planning to go around 3 pm tomorrow, and I need an extra ticket.

i bought a ticket at 6pm and i doubt they would close the box office.

Arcade Fire were so great. well worth the 80$ for their set alone. the new album is epic and as always, they sound even better live. having owen pallett onstage with them was a treat too!

major fail for whoever decided to put spraying water statues right in front of where the line is for the main port-o-potties. having to wait in long lineups with the sound of spraying water right next to you makes things uncomfortable (i'm a girl so no bushes for me).

I don't care much for Arcade Fire and less people in the metro = good for me.

**Le Tricolore** · 08-01-2010, 09:30 AM

The National were, hands down, the best band of the night I'd say.

not the best quality since I filmed it on my phone, but still awesome.

ThaDevilGirl · 08-01-2010, 09:32 AM

There we go.. I wish I had a better camera for filming though

Wake up was the best song from all Saturday's lineup.

Jee · 08-01-2010, 11:25 PM

HOLY FK!!!!

Weezer were disgustingly awesome!! Rivers Cuomo is one crazy mofo. NUTS NUTS NUTS! Seriously one of the best shows I've ever witnessed.

And what's up with them covering Kids from MGMT loool, t'was so great!!!

Today > Yesterday.

The Antlers were TREMENDEOUS and so were We Are Wolves. And Sonic Youth.

Just got back about an hour ago, I couldn't stop laughing when he came on stage wearing a blonde wig and covered Poker Face by Lady Gaga. And did you see him running around, and even going up to the bleachers? The man knows how to put on a hell of a show.

After Weezer though, I'd say the Cat Empire put on the second best show of the day.

I was very very very happy to choose We Are Wolves instead of The Cat Empire. I wanted to see both though.
