Coming Up: Pitchfork 2009 Wrap Up

posted by Justin at 2:29 am.

Pitchfork Music Festival was over the weekend in Union park in Chicago. I’ll have a write up of some of the bands I liked and some photos in the next few days. I tried to get to as many bands as possible. Overall I think the festival went pretty smoothly, besides Wavves being Wavves and not getting off stage, and all the bands sounded great - although I’m sorry, Pains of Being Pure At Heart kinda blew. Lindstrøm, The Flaming Lips, The Walkmen, Ponytail, Yo La Tengo, Matt and Kim, The Thermals, M83, Grizzly Bear….good, good.

Check back soon.
