Personally, this year was a letdown. Some great performances but a lot left me underwhelmed.  I was disappointed Cut Copy didn't make it last night.

Highlights:
Seeing Flavor Flav remind everyone that when he's not making awful television, he's actually very good.
Anything Tim Harringon (lead singer of Les Savy Fav) related
Mission of Burma playing Vs.
Jay Reatard
The Hold Steady
Boris, despite the short set
Ghostface & Raekwon, despite the fact they were on the third stage and it was crazy crowded
Spiritualized

Yeah, I found that out today. Oh well, they're coming back to Chicago in Sept. so I'll catch them then.

Same here.  At least he's not with Emily Blunt anymore.  She's single!  Yay!!!
