Day 2 of Osheaga in pictures

Busy/hectic week, but I'm only seven days removed from the actual festival. So this would make for like, amazing time if it was 1899.

Anyways, again: in order that I actually saw them, and pictures courtesy of osheaga.com and the photographers who took them.

Arkells

lead singer Max Kerman

the boys from Hamilton

Amazing Baby

...the boys from Brooklyn - notice the orange/Orange amps

and the orange guitarist...and his see-through guitar I mentioned!

"yes, yes I did go to music school for this instrument"

Arctic Monkeys

people were just smoking that much weed

great lightshow, though given the lack of headliners I watched, Coldplay and YYY's probably had better

lead singer Alex Turner

Crystal Castles

you'd get the impression it was just Alice Glass from these

World's Best Haircut?

...yes, yes it is

how to correctly use your microphone as an instrument

Day 1 in pictures

Figured it might be good to put up some visuals to my words. The pics are in the same order as the review, so from the first show I saw to the last.

Not my own photos, they're via Osheaga and property of the actual photographers.

La Roux

this is the MEG stage, where I spent a good chunk of my time and saw my favorite acts.

an actual pic of that hair she was rocking

Eagles of Death Metal

Dick McGee. Not his real name, but certainly not my favorite person there

Dick plays guitar too

...this is not Josh Homme as I found out later

The Stills

the all-red combo

the all-blue combo

...and give it up for the both of them

The Rural Alberta Advantage

the ever-cute Amy, and their drummer (also of Woodhands)

lead singer Nils...though I wanna call him Jason, cause he looks like Jason Statham of "The Transporter" fame

Lykke Li

the woman knows how to work a drumstick

the perfect dusk show

kudos to the photographer, as this shot is just perfect

Girl Talk

...though no girls are actually in Girl Talk - that's Greg of GT on the left with the dancers who were brought up for the entirety of the show

he has a penchant for getting more and more undressed as the show goes along, so this is early on

Woodhands

yes, they're as geeky as they look, but hell can they perform

eager is one way to put it

There's nothing quite like these

...to temper my liking for Deerhunter. In my previous post about them, I put up an album cover instead of a band pic. This, sadly, is why.

Lead singer Bradford Cox. Who should really have enough money and fame by now to eat something once a week or so. I could make other jokes too, but I think the pics speak for themselves.
