[Dumbfound]

of the weekend? I was excited to see them, but was let down tremendously.

Well, they are one of my very favorite bands, and while the set was really short (even with going 4 minutes over and pissing off the stage manager), for me it was, pound-for-pound. Looking forward to a complete show at Echo on Wednesday night.

[Coachella Bound]

2. the Rapture
3. Radiohead
4. Jeff Mangum
5. Beirut

HM: Breakbot, M83, Godspeed

Godspeed, EitS and The Hives were also great (tied for the last spot)

Edit- ah god, forgot about Pulp. Forget this. I have no top 5.

[lalalollipop]

1. Dre and Snoop
2. Kasabian
3. The Rapture
4. Manchester Orchestra
5. Givers (surprisingly)

I would say At The Drive In, but I didn't actually get to see much of the show even though I was in front because of the moshing. I've got bruises and missing toe nails to show for it.

[lalalollipop]

Scratch that, The Fucking Hives were awesome too and hilarious.

Current leaderboard:

1. Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg (26 1/2)
2. Radiohead (21)
3. (tie) Pulp and Refused (12)
5. Jeff Mangum (10)
6. (tie) At The Drive-In and Flying Lotus (8)
8. Modeselektor (7)
9. M83 (6)
10. (tie) Bon Iver, The Rapture, Death Grips, and Gotye (5)

Methodology: Each of the top five get a whole point, except in cases of a tie, in which case 1/2 points issued for up to three entries, more than 3 dismisses bottom spot. In cases of unordered lists with more than 8, the final spot is disregarded.
