Yep, total dance party on the second stage as called by TulsaNow's very own deinstein last night.

How about that laser show Ghostland gave the Tulsa skyline last night?

Also:

Lackluster moe. show...as expected. They never do well on festival slots and play all of their mediocre songs like Plane Crash and Captain Ammerica. I still love seeing them, as I grew up going to their shows...but I wish I could get a nice, long Timmy Tucker at a festival for once.

moe. setlist:

Not Coming Down > Wormwood> Okayalright, Skrunk > Kyle's Song> Zed Naught Z > Seat Of My Pants> Plane Crash

E: Captain America

the Disco Biscuits was an absolute rager. Caterpillar to open was phenomenal. Yes, their vocals make me cringe, but when they are jamming they have the best rhythm section and keys around.

the Disco Biscuits Setlist:

Caterpillar, Resurrection > The City > Helicopters1, Spy > November Rain, Reactor > Munchkin Invasion > Reactor > Thieving Magpie

1 ending only, completes 7/18/08

Ghostland Observatory was incredible. Only band I used my VIP pass for. Two very enthusiastic thumbs up. I REALLY want them to play Cain's.

Both Ghostland & the Biscuits noted it was their first time playing in Oklahoma.

Pretty sad, considering Ghostland is from Texas.

Why should you care?  You've already noted that 'you hate this effing town' and can't wait to leave.

I'm still here, aren't I?

And I like downtown/uptown a lot. I just think the rest of the city is a total dump.

So, now...back to the music discussion before I was so rudely interrupted by this Hoss character.

The Apples in Stereo were awesome.  They even played a song for me!  I was over on the side of the stage.

This forum could benefit from a Best of DFest thread with funny or cool things people saw...  cuz i definitely saw some funny stuff.

Touch of Grey? Hahaha. Seriously?

...anyhow, tonight was hilarious. The Roots was basically a soft porn in the crowd.

Just got home...lasted until 2:45am.

I had a good time at Dfest. We had a little watering hole set up at the edge of the festival and gave away free liquids to people we recognized.

I went into blank slate once, walked over to the main stage areas a couple of times, but the rest of the two days just tried to stay cool. We also passed out fans promoting ozone alert to everybody who walked down Detroit street

There were lots of bizarre people there. I guessed there was a two tattoo minimum for a while. I saw at least a dozen different color hair choices and enough piercings to make a chain link fence.

Everybody was well behaved outside the fenced areas. The crowd was polite and in a great mood. I saw a few politicians working the crowd and one, Andrew Rice, even came over and hung out with us for a while.

Next year, we are going to have an even bigger party. Dfest is such a good thing for downtown Tulsa. It is hard to not want to be part of it.
Power is nothing till you use it.
