Outside Lands festival has come and gone and before i pass out from the enormous consumption of food and wine, here is a quick brief of the weekend. Keep in mind there was so much going on this weekend that not everything is going to be here. As a matter of fact, it’s probably going to be in a further blog post when we’re fully rested.

Kings Of Leon as headliners
Ok, I like the Kings of Leon. And even though, media access was strict and photographers, including myself, had to be lined up and counted off just to enter the photo pit, I was still excited about their set.
But after watching their performance, I really don’t know what to say about it. In short, Kings of Leon had a good show: the crowd was into them, they played everybody’s favorite songs, and we even played “sing-a-long with the band.”
But after the last song fireworks, I sadly have to admit, it wasn’t a great show. It was more of a “that’s a good song…..that’s another good song…oh, another good Kings of Leon song” and then it was over.
I wonder how different it would be if they weren’t the headlining act.
