• slept in, got all day breakfast, went shopping, bought two shirts and a pair of black shorts (finally), decided we didn't care enough about cypress hill to go over that early.
• got to osheaga right as beirut was about to start, got a decent spot a few rows from the front but more to the right side of the stage. i had to stand directly behind a pda-crazy couple who were inhaling their cigarettes, then kissing, passing the smoke, and watching the other exhale it. it was bad. someone moved, and we got a bit closer, but i was beind another pda-crazy couple. overall, they are beautiful live but a little boring to watch. he had ukelele difficulties so he only got to play postcards from italy, but that one's my favourite so i didn't mind much. elephant gun was incredible.
• left beirut a bit early to sit down since we were so tired. listened to city and colour. they were cut short since beirut ran a bit behind schedule. only 6 songs, but i didn't mind again since i've seen them three times before.
• went to their stage to get a good spot for death cab while tragically hip played. actually got to hear bobcaygeon live, which was really good. we were about 3 rows from the front for death cab, but the crowd was annoying. a fight almost broke out with a drunk blonde bitch and a mellow brown guy in a fedora because she wanted to be front and center (which he was) even though she only knew the words to crooked teeth and nothing else.
• they were incredible live too, but the setlist was slightly disappointing. in order: i will possess your heart, crooked teeth, doors unlocked and open, grapevine fires (which i did NOT expect them to play, but i was so insanely stoked on), soul meets body, you are a tourist, the new year, cath..., we looked like giants (which featured a huge drum solo at the end with both the regular drummer as well as ben gibbard on another set of drums, playing in sync, really fucking loudly - almost teared up...), and the sound of settling. i can't complain because i've been wanting to see them for years, but it definitely could've been a better collection of songs, and not so much focused on their most popular stuff like soul meets body. but oh well. i'd marry ben gibbard.
• headed over to mstrkrft, prepared for death. instantly dripping with sweat, surrounded by horny mdma-ridden teenagers holding glowsticks, feeling so out of place, and realizing that they are not very good live because every 'song' sounds the same (song in quotations because it literally just sounded like one super extended song rather than separate ones..). decided we didn't want to be there after 25 minutes of a freakishly long man ponytail in my face, so i chose to crowd surf my way out of there. (everyone who attempted to crowd surf was brought to the front of the crowd and brought down and escorted out by security rather than being dropped back into the crowd, so once you're up, you're out of there. i gave my bag to ashley and told them to meet me at the back and i went on up. stayed up for at least 30 seconds then got lifted out by security. i knew instantly that i would never find everyone, so i decided to go to 'the pit' to wait for them there since that was our official meeting place. not bringing my phone was a terrible idea because i ended up waiting for 40 minutes while they went back into the crowd after not finding me by the stage. a drunk boy gave me a nice little striptease and i got to watch half of the flaming lips' set, which was pretty neat.

we ended the night with $30 worth of greasy delivery food, long showers, and shark week. i had a great weekend.
