Definitely going to the first weekend, as it will hopefully be at least a few degrees cooler.

FYF schedule for next Saturday. Basically 90% of my time will be spent at Leonardo’s stage.

Or, if you already have tickets, you will get a VIP upgrade.

FYF 2010 was such a disorganized fucking mess, but I’m going to give this one a shot. It has to be better than what went down last year. The line up is really solid (as it was in 2010), and hopefully the production team will get it together (as they promised they would), so I’m crossing my fingers.

We’re planning on getting a place for a big group of people for the weekend, and I am so excited. If you’re from Southern California, I know it’s been on your mind, so tell me, who all here is going? 

FYF Fest is just one week away! Los Angeles, you need to cool down before next Saturday, please and thank you.

AND Local Natives just got added?! Going for sure! 

I guess the Rolling Stones rumor was just that— a rumor— which is bumming me out. But PAVEMENT = HAPPY ME.  Overall, I’m fairly happy with the line up, though I do hope they add some bigger acts soon.

I’ve been MIA lately, because, well, I’ve been busing watching MIA and a bunch of other performers at Street Scene in San Diego. We were front row for almost every show (Girl Talk, Deadweather, MIA, Of Montreal, Holy Fuck, Conor Oberst with surprise guest JENNY LEWIS) and only towards the middle for just a few (Public Enemy, Modest Mouse, Cake). We also stopped by a couple of other bands, but focused more on trying to watch full sets this year. I wish I could relive the weekend over again or at least certain performances. Oh, and we had happy hour at this great little Mexican place called La Puerta, and I fell in love. Their drinks were delicious, strong and incredibly cheap (maybe I’m just used to LA prices now, but whatever) and their food the same. I want to take another weekend trip to San Diego, because I’ve only ever gone there for Street Scene, just to soak the town in. The Gaslamp District reminds me so much of the pedmall in Iowa City, which I miss. Must go back soon!
