you can usually judge these events by who sponsors them. the bigger the corporate sponsor the more i don't give a good goddamn. :wink:

Well, the venues are great and I like a lot of the bands, so I guess thats teh main factors I judge it on. Like Torche for instance doing some Scion sponsored events - dont care about Scion, but dont want to miss Torche because of that. Now if it were sponsored by Glenn Beck than I probably wouldnt be going along.....

I'm messin' with ya Carl. These days bands need sponsors.Price of gas, limited venues and a lack of honest promoters... bands aren't left with much of a choice. The good ol' days of bands jumping in the van and doing it for themselves, by themselves are all but gone. Boo-hoo :(

By the way - this fest was totally undersubscribed and awesomely relaxed and fun as a result! Highlights were White Lies (who I got to see twice), Besnard Lakes (a revelation). Harry's Gym and Amusement Parks on Fire. Lowlights were the Klaxons - gave 'em a second chance - and they were as sucky as 3 years ago - absolute bollox live - and we are NOT talking the DOG's BOLLOX either!

Met up with some cool folks, got a free tee from Dickies/Dethkills crew and ate some good food truck stuff - like the appallingly named (but tasty) Gastrobus.

Got to see maybe 10 of the 40 or so bands on offer in relaxed circumstances over three days for $20! Can't be beat. Even the parking was easy and free. Culture Collide ruled!
