This is a cool-looking picture from the Times of Radiohead’s stage show at All Points West, but was it enough to make the Jersey City festival live up to the legacies of the big festies like Bonnaroo and Coachella? It sounds like it was kinda lame from this NY Times article. No camping, an annoying commute and strict alcohol rules are the kind of things that would make this festival experience very different to the Shangri-La atmosphere of the big ‘uns.
So, did anyone go? Was it as lame as it seems from the outside? Was Radiohead awesome enough to pull this one out of the ditch?
It couldn’t have been better than Frances at Union Hall in Park Slope on Saturday night, who opened for the fairly-snoozey Rogue Wave! Frances totally brought it! Keep your eyes on these guys.
