Treasure Island Music Festival

This weekend we went to the Treasure Island Music Festival. I had never been to Treasure Island before, but a quick google told me that it is an artificial island originally used as an airport and built from landfill that was dredged from the bottom of the Bay during the Great Depression. You can see it's absence on the 1915 map below. I guess one man's trash is another man's treasure... island.
Pat and Tom trying to figure out why The Decemberists sucked so much.
Courtney, thrilled about how good Grizzly Bear and Beirut were.

Tom, readying his mind for the Flaming Lips.

Puppy piling for warmth.

Flaming Lips, Flaming Lips, Flaming Lips.

Embryonic

In case you haven't heard the good news, until midnight on Monday you can stream the new Flaming Lips album on Colbert Nation. I'm getting more excited for Treasure Island by the minute.
