FYF.2015

FYF.2015

(Saturday.&.Sunday)

Okay...FKA.twigs made FYF for me.  What a performance! So happy I left right after Belle.  I was going to stick around for Morrissey because I was really up close, but wanted to see something fresh and new.  Plus, someone less of a asshole.  

Once I arrived to the stage that twigs was going to be, it was...PACKED!!!  D'Angelo was performing and he was really...GOOD!  He had that place moving.  AWESOME! 

This was my first time at FYF and I Fuckn loved it.  So chill compared to Coachella. Everyone was in good mood and very respectful.  I told myself, "self, am I in LA?".  For sure I'll be back.

  I arrived just in time on Saturday to see La Femme.  They where...okay.  I stayed for a couple of songs and headed to the beer garden.  Drank a couple of beers and headed to catch The.Drums.  

What, Johnny is...GAY?!?!  Who new.  I had no idea.  He came out saying he got married to his partner who was in the pit with the photographers. Awesome!!!  Once again, they where bueño. 

!!! was up next and they are always entertaining to watch.  The new tunes sounded good and it's great to see this band still making music.  Not so many NYC from early 2001 have survived when they first came out.  Only a few are still going strong right now.

  Bloc.Party was up next and of course, they killed it!!!  They got a new lady drummer (awesome) and guitarist.  Don't know if they are permanent, but will find out when they come back.  

Saturday had the better line up then Sunday (of course), but like I said...FKA.twigs was AMAZING!  Had to leave after Bloc Party to go back and attend my booth at Chinatown.  Wanted to see so many others, but there is always next year.  See you in 2016 FYF!!!
