I'd agree with almost everything in that article. I'm sure, even though I caught 5 or so acts, and some good ones amongst 'em, i missed the few rare standouts.
The debit cards were lousy, the environment rather bleak and uninteresting (except, 'natch, the Triforium), and yeah, Gogol Bordello was not at the top of their game. A million pounds of fun anyway! In fact the whole day was enjoyable regardless of the small demerits.
That there was so much going on in downtown that day rather added to the excitement somehow. Except that not being able to go to the Edison afterwards, on the only evening I'm likely to ever be a block away, was a big, unforgiveable demerit. Damn you, Hillary.
