ACL- Friday

Today ACL was AMAZING. When i got there, I went to go see Weezer and it was probably the best show I have ever seen at ACL because I knew every single song and it was so much fun jamming out with my little sis. Then, I saw florence + the machine and they were good depending on your musical preferance. I personally don't like her so it wasn't all that great but I had to go because my sister wanted to. Then, I saw the Black Lips and they were great and high energy. The last show I saw was the Black Keys and they dissapointed me. I thought they were going to play their best songs, but they played boring, slow songs that you couldn't even dance to. They did however play Everlasting Light and that pretty much the only good part (that I saw at least). I only saw 4 bands and your probably thinking to yourself what the heck why so little? Well, I did that rock and recycle program where they give you this HUGE bag and if you fill it all the way with recycleables, you get a free ACL T-Shirt. So let me tell you my experiance with that crap. So I walked in the entrace and I saw the bags so I was like what the hell why not, right? Turns out it was not worth all that effort at all. I was being thrown cans at, digging through trashes, and having to carry that heavy ass bag around all day and I took a shower and still stink of a combination of beer, weed, and dumpster. 3 times I came back to the stand to give in my bag to get my free shirt and they kept telling me it wasn't full enough allthough it was like seriously 45 pounds. So I learned my lesson never to do that again, but I did get the shirt so it paid off a little. But as far as bands go, Weezer was the bomb diggity and they honestly should have been the main band for Friday.
