      Well part of me has to say 5 Eyed Hand, Byron Space Circus, and New Monsoon, just cuz they are all my peeps. Strong strong sets by all, and I'm so stoked that both 5EH and BSC were well received.
      So .... that brings me to my favorites I have never seen b4 this last weekend:
      Victor Barnes late nite Sunday (i think i'm in love with the fiddle player)
      Aurther Lee Land ( one looping mutha f**ka!)
      Trunk Fulla Funk
      ON the One
      BTS (Bee Stage -Sat)
      ... oh wait that's way more than three, damn!!
      But of course some of my favorite non-music bits most certainly has to be LOUDCAMP!!!!!!!!!!

            ALL the music was amazing!!

            Who was playing main stage Sat. night after 2 am?? The shedule says " On the One"? They sounded SO good when I was chillin' at the camp site... course I was too "tired" to make it over to the show the check it out. :-) My dancing feet were d.o.n.e. dogs.

                  I thought the trio was a little flat, especially at the start.

                  They were having sound issues on-stage (fuzzy monitor somehow).

                  FOH sounded great.

                  At the end of the set, they played a Jan Jan....which really built up the energy.

                  When they brought up the DJ and went into an Asian Massive....it was freakin' awesome!!!

                  Fareed, Saalar & Starfire

                    C'mon Sam top 3?? Alright if I have to break it down this is my top 3:

                    Albino! (first chance to chill and watch- they sent me there!)
                    Thursday night Izabella (I'm biased, but come the fuck on that shit was hot!!)
                    New Monsoon (this new line-up is pretty sick!!!)

                    The Fareed Haque stuff was very cool, especially with the incredible tabla player, but not the right time slot IMO.

                    I really enjoyed both On The One sets, but I was not present enough to slide them into my top 3

                    Big props to first timers 5 Eyed Hand and Byron Space Circus for laying down really good sets

                      And the guys from BTS just continue to get better and better!! (I guess that is a given hence the lack of comment on them)

                        I was so glad to hear Sean Lehe sit in with BTS for that second set late nite, and play some different Turtle songs.....it was really cool to hear him jam for Changing Lanes fer a change. :)

                        ALASKA by Monsoon was a highlight, too !!

                        IMO what made Victor Barnes so awesome for that late nite is that they played for so damn long and it was sooooo damn loose.......great way to end the weekend with the grounding beat of bluegrass.

                          BLU SIRKUT, altho I wasnt 100% present, blew my mind once again!! Some really wierd stuff, very eclectic......

                          I wish I would of seen more Gamelan X, I dont know what my prob was at that point.

                          Good point about Victor Barnes- was pleasantly surprised my first time checking them out. Not ground breaking, but very solid musicianship and it looked like they were having a blast together!

                          Ken is a very cool guy
