Outside Lands Music Festival Friday Live Blog

3:21 walking west through the park to the grounds. Chris is already inside and got a spot in front of the main stage / radiohead soundboard. Its a cool overcast day, feels like 67 with a cool wind.

3:52 no pat down. in and getting to know the lay of the land. Sparse crowd at this point.

4:50 sitting in a crowd that is getting packed in front of main stage. Waiting for steel pulse to start.

5:10 groovin to steel pulse. Opened op with a song about the national anthem and just finished "life without music".probably 20,000 already here.

You know the best thing about reggae? Girls that like to dance to reggae.

5:40 crowd is heavy, chris got a good spot and we are gonna stay for a while to defend it...no cold war kids or felice bros for now.

6:18 manu starts and I'm in the porta potty line. Grounds are very big and crowded.

6:30 manu. Crowd is crazy big.

Mano is very energetic. Seems like half the crowd is loving ut, dancing and jumping with the music, the other half waiting for radiohead.

7:30 6 of us sitting on a tarp in the middle of a crowd of standing people. Tarp'd Trap'd.

7:41 one of chris's friends amazingly finds us in the crowd. Gives us a puddle.

7:59 pm

i dont know what to say. tonight was crazy. i have never been crushed in a crowd like that, not in years. sound cut out twice, i mean completely goes out for 30-60seconds in the middle of a song...never ever seen a big show, big festival where power goes out in the middle of a song. check back tomorrow for more updates, we dont know what to make of this right now. the scene down at the festival tonight was one of survival. seriously. nuts.

Heineken & Heineken Light for $7. Some wine, and Sojou cocktails. I waited for about 30 mins to get some beers and missed about 4 songs of the Radiohead set.
