  July 18, 2009 09:08 PM
• 
  steveheisler: National abiding by key rule of live shows: don't play the songs exactly like they sound on the album. "slow show" great example #pitchfork

  July 18, 2009 08:22 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: Matt and Kim apparently the only artists at #pitchfork who got the memo that music is supposed to be fun.
  July 18, 2009 08:20 PM
• 
  joshmodell: Staking out a spot for the national, cuz I'm a fanboy. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 08:08 PM

  July 18, 2009 08:07 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Matt & Kim couldn't look more joyful on stage & it couldn't be more charming. They're killing it, & I now have huge Kim crush. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 08:07 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Suddenly a Matt & Kim fan. She is so cute! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 08:06 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: Surprising number of crowd surfers at Matt and Kim. Understandable though, they're bringing it. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 08:06 PM

• 
  joshmodell: I watched all of Lindstrom but I still feel hungry. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 07:36 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Watching one of the saddest hip-hop dance circles ever. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 07:19 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: I really like Doom in small doses. His monotone flow loses luster after awhile. And the mix is still meh. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 07:07 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: "it's like a retard fest / how it got started is any retard's guess." #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:59 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Interpretive facial expressions by Doom's backup more fun to watch than Doom's mostly robotic delivery. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:59 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Doom's hypeman is earning his keep. Every chance he gets, he's proclaiming Doom the be all end all. "The beats are so melodic!" #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:57 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Maybe a prereq for putting you hands up should be a remote sense of rhythm. #pitchfork #assholecomment #doom
  July 18, 2009 06:43 PM
• 
  kphipps3000: Went to see a HARRY POTTER matinee. Came back w/a headache (not because of the movie.) Sitting out #pitchfork Saturday. See you tomorrow.
  July 18, 2009 06:41 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: It took three songs but we finally got some bass in this set. #pitchfork Doom
  July 18, 2009 06:37 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Once again, TURN IT UP. This is an insult to Doom! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:31 PM
• 
  steveheisler: Crowd not taking to Doom like I thought. Lots of polite head nodding #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:30 PM
• 
  steveheisler: Are they saying Doom, or Doom-urns? #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:27 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Hilarity! @genevievekoski pulled a Michael Jackson & set her hair on fire for a second. Can Doom top THAT? #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:26 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Watched Wavves for a bit with @mrsamlowry, but bailing early for Doom. Wavves wasn't bad...will investigate more. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:10 PM
• 
  steveheisler: Yeasayer putting on a hell of a live show. Really high energy. Dude playing drum machine bare handed. They just saluted the sun. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 06:06 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Now THAT is a lotta reverb on Wavves dude's vocals. But not bad so far. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:57 PM
• 
  steveheisler: Yeasayer just declared their last song "summer jam 2010" #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:47 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Vultures by me hoping for another Wavves onstage meltdown. God, get over it--they had a really bad show. So what? #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:45 PM
• 
  joshmodell: Uh oh, rain is finally starting. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:44 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Yeasayer watchers, here's a quick recap of when I saw them: line check for 30 min, then complain about only having 20 min to play #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:42 PM
• 
  joshmodell: The yeasayer dude cut his hair? Now 70% less hippie! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:37 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Everything I've read about Wavves makes me think I'll dislike them immensely. But I'm keeping an open mind! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:36 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: "Ponytail is like the Gossip if you forgot where the real Gossip was." #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:13 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Nope, can't get with her shrill meows. They still pierce from across the park. Kill time before Wavves, but mostly wait for Doom #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 05:04 PM
• 
  joshmodell: Final fantasy won me over. Good on ya, final fantasy. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:57 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: Complaining to my friend about the sound and she says it's "engineered for maximum love connection. Like 'i like your keds.'" #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:50 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Much of Ponytail stooping like ogres for reverby anthem. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:48 PM
• 
  davidwolinsky: Lots of folks laying down for Ponytail, but someone got really relaxed. Found a used condom next to what's hopefully mayo. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:48 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: During their more intense moments musically, Ponytail remind me of Parts & Labor...not sure I can with the vocals though. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:48 PM
• 
  joshmodell: FF: "sorry I played so many new songs, but they're the ones I enjoy sharing with you." #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:45 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Watching Ponytail, @emilywithrow asks me about wailing singer, "It's a girl?" #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:39 PM
• 
  steveheisler: Seriously, I don't think i've ever heard a quieter #pitchfork crowd. One guy's clap is echoing.
  July 18, 2009 04:32 PM
• 
  marahe: Final fantasy kind of bringing the pretty and precious to #pitchfork.
  July 18, 2009 04:31 PM
• 
  steveheisler: Final Fantasys voice sounds like his violin #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:28 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: How is Final Fantasy louder than Fucked Up was? It is quite pretty though. Good to listen to while on a blanket. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:27 PM
• 
  joshmodell: The kids don't know how to physically react to final fantasy. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:25 PM
• 
  joshmodell: Final fantasy is precious in a good way. Is he the dude that hates that word? #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:20 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: Just got recognized by an AVC superfan. Weird and awesome! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:17 PM
• 
  davidwolinsky: Kids from 826 writing center just interviewed Lindstrom. He prefers Prince to Michael Jackson. Topical! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:09 PM
• 
  steveheisler: Final Fantasy crowd already seated. Guess it'll be that kinda show. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 04:09 PM

  GenevieveKoski: Ice cream man says beer was spilled on the Popsicles. My free ice cream! I demand a refund! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:57 PM
•

  GenevieveKoski: Technicolor men's skinny jeans are always unfortunate. Flourescent salmon might be the most unfortunate, however. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:51 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Dude wearing a Belle & Sebastian T-shirt just gave me dirty look for texting during Bowerbirds. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:51 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Unsurprisingly not loud enough to counter thumps from other stages. #pitchfork Bowerbirds
  July 18, 2009 03:49 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: Bowerbirds coming on, including big string bass and accordian and obligatory mention of folky Sister Mary. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:47 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Pains aren't loud per se, but frontman's Gibson Treblemaster, er, Jazzmaster is friggin PIERCING. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:44 PM
• 
  joshmodell: Pains of being... Zzzzzzzzz. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:41 PM
• 
  davidwolinsky: 19 year old working the nintendo ds bus says this gig has nothing on the lunchables tour. No free rock climbing here. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:35 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: Cessna overhead towing banner for Esser album. Damn! On ground, Pains Of Being Pure @ Heart prove better than their terrible name.#pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:32 PM
• 
  joshmodell: I fucked up... And missed Fucked Up! #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:20 PM

  GenevieveKoski: FU guitarist jumped on top of the crowd and then the rain starts. Yay and boo. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:16 PM
• 
  davidwolinsky: Pitchfork hassled me about my i.d. As if you can fake this kind of handsome. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:15 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: Pink Eye gives the audience a 9.9. "you're better than an animal collective record." #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:08 PM
• 
  steveheisler: You heard it here first. Animal Collective sounds like phish... "cuz it's terrible" via Fucked Up #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 03:07 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: 4 years in #pitchfork fest organizers STILL haven't figured out that it's not loud enough. Fucked Up should be leveling us
  July 18, 2009 03:04 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: Kidding aside, FU is turning in a great, tight, extremely entertaining set. #pitchfork.
  July 18, 2009 03:02 PM
• 
  emilywithrow: People being more tossed about than surfing, but at least they're sporting devil's horns. #pitchfork Fucked Up
  July 18, 2009 03:01 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: I still find it a little surprising that Fucked Up has 3 guitarists. Maybe if they up-picked, they'd need fewer! #pitchfork

  July 18, 2009 02:54 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: FU's Pink Eye is pretty crazy, but he has a ways to go to steal Tim Harrington's "crazy fat dude at pfork" gold medal. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 02:53 PM
• 
  steveheisler: You have to get really close to appreciate Fucked Ups tightness #pitchfork #thatswhatshesaid
  July 18, 2009 02:49 PM
• 
  Kyle_Ryan: You know, I'd be sad if Pink Eye's back WEREN'T that hairy. #pitchfork

  emilywithrow: Finally some action onstge: Pink Eye just bit into a beachball and put in over his head. #pitchfork
  July 18, 2009 02:38 PM
• 
  GenevieveKoski: Hipster mom put some god damn ear protectors on your infant during fucked ups set. #pitchfork #dumbass
