Literally driving home from Riot Fest in Chicago right now. Caught all of the following bands during the weekend (best performances in bold):
Boston Manor
Hot Mulligan
Anberlin
Jeff Rosenstock
Taking Back Sunday
Alkaline Trio
My Chemical Romance

Mannequin Pussy
Get Up Kids
Movements
The Menzingers
Madball
The Story So Far
GWAR
Yellowcard
Misfits

The Linda Lindas
Mom Jeans
Less Than Jake
Weathers
Save Face
The Maine
And the Academy Is

Disappointed I missed Go Go Bordello. The videos my friend took of their set Saturday was insane. Granted, I missed them to watch more of GWAR.

Outside of that, I haven’t caught a lot of non-local band shows outside of:
Kublai Khan and Terror
Cold War Kids
Simple Plan and Sum 41

Last minute last Saturday me and a couple of runnin' buddies went to see Max Stalling. He's been around about 25 years so wasn't sure what to expect but it was a damn good show.

I was there too. Saw a couple baws there Saturday in lsu jerseys too. Needless to say they stood out. The Misfits were plain evil but Bad Religion and Cloud Nothings were probably the two best I saw. As for Gogol Bordello, it was fun but they outstayed their welcome by 5 minutes into the Misfits and the crowd was not happy.

Riot Fest in Chicago

This is the first year I haven't gone to at least one day since Ive lived here... The few bands I wanted to see where so spread out across the three days.. not enough bang for my buck... I was contemplating a last minute smash and grab to see Rocket From the Crypt at 5:30 on Friday, but got tied up with work...

Pavement tonight at the Chicago Theater
King Kahn and BBQ tomorrow night at Poor Boys
Afghan Wigs Saturday night at One Eyed Jacks
