Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy

so we never made it back to our hotel or the bss show after lolla last night cause we opted for chicago night life. sweaty, dancing, loud music. stayed w alexs friend and woke up this morning w super hangover and headed back to lolla. greaaaat day to say the least. mark ronson probably impressed me the most…or maybe girl talk…who knows. i’m on a sonic high right now, tooooo much good stuff has been hitting my ear drums in a stream this weekend. feeling inspired. gonna get some drinks and play with some programs, hope everyones having good days. pz

i figured this trip would probably be a test of wills, mostly in terms of operating on little to no sleep, food, or energy. well, yeah… day three of lolla was the trial by fire on those points. elliot already mentioned the drinking, the hangovers… i myself only caught about 2 hours of sleep and almost crashed and burned at the festival today until i napped on the lawn (an activity, which, i assume will be very repetitive on this trip) before seeing brazilian girls. highlights on the day? im looking over my pictures and the things worth mentioning are as follows: seeing the octopus project perfrom in all their wonderous glory, getting down to chromeo, gregg gillis (aka girl talk) rocking one of my bandanas (the picture is a MUST SEE, made me so happy, and i’ll share it as soon as i figure out a way to conveniently upload photos either here or elsewhere), me losing elliot in the girl talk mob and freaking out about not being able to find him, and hating on kanye. sure, his light show was impressive (you may remember the bonnaroo fiasco) but his set was lame and he’s a wack mc. he’s the guy i loved to hate. and it was great… though his sunglasses were pretty awesome (the fact that his eyewear was the most impressive part of the performance says a lot, i think). well, to sum it up lolla weekend was almost surreal, and its definitely set the bar high for thr rest of the trip. many side notes and anecdotes later, i wrap up this weekends story, for now at least. im not quite sober and i plan on being less so before cleaning two days worth of grant park filth off of me and heading to bed. more to come soon, probably more details about the weekend which i will write up while im sitting in the car on the 1000+ mile drive to wyoming. thats all for now though…
