Highlights From the 2009 Treasure Island Music Festival
As expected, this year's
Treasure Island Music Festival was a well-rounded weekend of awesome live music, dancing, and pretty views of San Francisco. The gorgeous and warm weather on Saturday fit the bill for the lineup that had a heavier concentration of electronic music and DJs (like MGMT and Girl Talk), while on Sunday I bundled up and chilled out to The Decemberists and Grizzly Bear. All in all it was an awesome weekend that ended with a bang as The Flaming Lips closed down the party. Check out some photos of my favorite acts from the weekend.

Great recap! I went on Sunday, and I think Vetiver and Grizzly Bear were my faves, though I also loved the Decemberists' performance even though I'm not that into their albums. I was a bit disappointed in the Flaming Lips, though. Wayne Coyne seemed frustrated that the crowd lacked energy but to me, he was killing the momentum at every turn, so energy didn't really build. I think that's the band responsibility somewhat.
