Wow. There's a lot to say. But let's start with this: It was really, really good. It was a show in a way that hip hop performances rarely are. Kanye came out in a cloud of smoke and (appropriately...
Nine Inch Nails are on the North Stage right now. Bob Dylan is finishing up on the South Stage. After Dylan it will be Kanye. Finally. Judging from the comments I've overheard this weekend, Kanye...
On my way down to the stage to see Dylan, I swung by the Dance tent where Moby was spinning (like the lingo I used there? I'm way hip) a DJ set. The tent, which I have studiously avoided all weekend...

Although my fellow blogger was less than impressed, I thought Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings put on a phenomenal show. All around me, I heard folks exclaiming, "I love her!" Her eight-piece band—you...
