As I headed over to the Balance Stage I was surprised to see how large of a crowd gathered to see the enthusiastic and extremely fun duo from Brooklyn, Matt and Kim. Having seeing them before only in small venues, I questioned how well they would perform here at Pictchfork and to much enjoyment they did not disappoint.
Sunday afternoon M83 pummeled Pitchfork with Anthony Gonzalez’s beautiful waves of sound.

Giant balloons, confetti, dancing frogs and kitties, and a gorilla with a person inside — all part of a normal day for one of the best bands ever to see perform live, The Flaming Lips.
Check out some of the photos from the first song at Pitchfork Music Festival below (and yes all of this occurred during only one song)….
This four piece art rock band from Baltimore, Maryland blew me away with their stage presence along with their experimental guitars/ vocals as the final act at Pitchfork.

Most music festivals around the country come with a list of “do’s and don’ts” for ones performance. Well, here at Pitchfork Music Festival, there where no rules. From the very beginning of Fucked Up’s set the lead singer Damian Abraham smashed a full beer on his head, ripped apart a few flying beach balls. Later he joined the sea of people in front of him to finish off this extremely entertaining performance in the early afternoon.

The Jesus Lizard played their first show after 10 long years at Pitchfork Music Fesitval and they haven’t lost one little shred of energy. As soon as the first song started the lead singer David Yow dived over the press pit and strait into the crowd, as the fans all held him up in his glory.

And finally on the main stage at Pitchfork, one of the forefathers of indie rock, Built to Spill. I can not put into words how amazing this show was. So I hope my photos speak for me below….
