Last night : Fleet Foxes at the Hi-Dive Fleet Foxes, I've finagled, bargained, wheedled, and slunk my way into some pretty tough shows over the years, but let me tell you: Denver's Hi-Dive was no country for procrastinators last night at the Fleet Foxes show. I'd waited too long to secure a spot to review this scruffy Seattle quintet, shortsightedly not expecting a rare total sell-out crowd at the intimate Hi-Dive. I don't know if I've ever seen such a crowd looking for spare tickets outside that venue, and it was only through a stroke of sheer.

Though I don't disagree with the political.ics I am not looking to rap music to shape my political insights just give me something to nod my head to or stories of urban life and bravado with some good beats. Mission of Burma's new stuff on Matador.

The vegan ice cream cone. Fleet Foxes tickets.

In Which Tyler Slums It At The Pitchfork Music Festival live, The View from Lazytown: Pitchfork 2008 by Tyler Coates Every July, my friends and I gather up blankets (and, in the case of this year's rain forecast, tarps), shove bottles of vodka in hidden regions of our backpacks, and congregate under the shade in Chicago's Union Park for the Pitchfork Music Festival. When I attended the festival's inaugural weekend in 2006, I made the mistake of standing in the crowds, trying to push my way to the stages to check out my favorite bands of the year.

Pitchfork: Saturday, Part I Pitchfork Music Festival, Chicago, IL July 19-20, 2008 The rain finally stopped at around 2 p.m. and although the sun didn't exactly come out, at least it was cool and dry. There was plenty of mud to go around though. Saturday at the Pitchfork Music Festival saw some excellent musicians ply their trade.
