My friend made these, not the best quality though: Sidenote; the screens behind them were fucking amazing, I think I liked this even better than the whole bazing Radiohead brought along to the festivals last year. The show was fucking amazing. Great setlist (though I missed McFearless, Trani and Cold Desert, I thought they re-introduced the first two ), was fun watching the girlfriends dancing their asses off to SOF sidestage and seeing Jessie working the air-drums during Crawl and her watching Nathan closely while doing it. Haha! They looked good, sounded amazing, were into it (except for Jared, I kind of had that feeling...). I think Caleb was pretty drunk, he sounded really emotional during his speeches, haha. Everything he said was really fitting though, I loved how he basically said they appreciated all the foreigners travelling to the show more than the locals. My hips are bruised as fuck, much worse than last time I saw 'em. Oh, and can I just say that the festival itsel is amazing? SO TINY! I could see the backstage and tourbus area from the field. I'm definitely keeping an eye on this festival the next years!

I thought the crowd was really sad in general. They only really sang along during SOF and Use Somebody. Notion was a hit as well. I nearly felt embarrassed while singing along the "whoawoa"s during Knocked Up. All the pushing and pulling, but as soon as they started, no one even sang a long.. what a waste of energy. But hey, I stood up front, I'm not complaining!
I got the setlist, I'll post it later on.
And god, Franz Ferdinand.. funny lads. The singer and bassplayer really couldn't lay their eyes off me. And I'm not saying this in a pretentious way at all, I thought it was quite annoying. The singer kept winking at me, then when he jumped off the stage he shoved his guitar in my face.. I just kind of shrugged and didn't reach for him (unlike all the hysterical girls next to me). Bass player kept looking as well, and wanted to give me his pick, but I didn't even reach for it either, he just shrugged and laughed when I let it fall down haha.
