friday fun in the sun!
I am *so* glad Jem bought me a ticket to BFD! It was perfect, because all the bands we wanted to see were during the day on the side stages! So it wasn't too gigantic and horrible, and instead it was a gorgeous day, full of great music!!

We saw Tegan & Sara, Kaiser Chiefs, The Bravery, Hot Hot Heat and Sleater-Kinney on the small side stage - and then The Lovemakers and Kasabian on the main stage. All were great, but I have to say Kaiser Chiefs really rocked it for me! I hadn't seen them live yet & they were FANTASTIC! The lead singer jumps around all crazy and they're all very charming. The energy was great for their show & I was dancing and singing and loving it!
HHH is one of my favorite bands, but this show wasn't their strongest IMO. The show at GAMH a few months back was way better... but still cool to see them (because I looooove them) & now that we know their new stuff, it was good to hear that again.
It was excellent to see SK, too! We got up pretty close for that one & I enjoyed their whole set. I love their voices, and it never gets old watching Janet Weiss kick ASS on the drums. She's awesome! There's a great interview with them in this month's BUST if you're a fan!
It was wild to see the Lovemakers on the main stage, cuz they were so teeny! Usually they got all their sexiness right up in my face (that's more like it!), but they still sounded great... and we could see & feel the sexy all the way up on the lawn. I can't wait for their new album!!
