Live blogging Treasure Island Music Festival 2011: Day 2
October 16, 2011
Thee Oh Sees introduce their manager as new member, a second drummer is EXACTLY what they needed. #TIMF2011 http://yfrog.com/odvjlxj
(AG) Day 2. #fuckyeahtheeohsees #TIMF2011 http://pic.twitter.com/hgq7ZF7Y
(NB) It’s getting rowdy thanks to Thee Oh Sees #TIMF2011
(BVH) Foggy SF the perfect backdrop for Weekend at TIMF.
(AG) #TIMF2011 Day 2 weather report: a bit cloudier today, but still relatively warm! Be sure to bring layers, just on case.
(NB) Saw my first costume of the day, a very cheerful taco.
(NB) Weekend just jammed for 10 minutes over a single haunting vocal loop. Excellent.
(AG) Spotted: lots of people with fingers in their ears. Weekend is LOUD. #TIMF2011
(NB) Watching the show from atop of a pirate ship bus. #TIMF2011 is the best!
(BVH) Weekend totally crushed “Hazel” and “Coma Summer” to close their set. The new EP rules too, by the way.
(NB) Amazing to hear how the Antlers have transmitted the intimacy of their records to a large festival crowd.
(NLB) Hands down, the best music to get it on to: The Antlers’ “Parentheses” or all of Burst Apart. #TIMF2011 #ongroundconfessions
(AG) Aaaaand the Antlers brought the sunshine. Thanks guys! #TIMF2011 http://pic.twitter.com/KA2oIUOx
(AG) the Antlers just said that this is “just the best festival ever.” Awwww. #TIMF2011 @timfsf
(NB) The sun is out – don’t forget to screen-up. Also, be a friend, if you see I missed a spot let me know #TIMF2011
(NB) Found the end of the balloon rainbow. http://yfrog.com/kj3kskoj
(AG) Oh Annie, Marry Me. Please? #albumreferences #doublemeaning #TIMF2011
(AG) I forgot how intense “My Lips Are Red” is in a live setting. #ilovestvincent #TIMF2011
(AG) Interviewing grandmas for our Confessions video. #ongroundconfessions #TIMF2011 http://pic.twitter.com/yzzEdsY7
