While I don't hold them in particularly high regard, I decided to stick around to listen, though I spent much of my time wandering aimlessly until Tricky and Passion were scheduled to perform. They ended up starting about an hour and a half behind schedule, but I suppose that is just how things go. It was acceptable, I suppose, though I find it somewhat perplexing when an artist with seven albums chooses to spend their set performing covers—I believe they did it twice. His decision to jump into the crowd during the encore was certainly the highlight of the day. While passing the time, I wandered over to the 101 Stage where some dubstep was playing; it was pleasant enough until they transitioned into reggae, which is a genre I truly cannot stand listening to outdoors. All in all, one could have easily survived the weekend without attending the second day.
I was actually there, though it wasn't part of my original plan. 😉 Once I had already made my way inside, I figured I might as well stay and wait for Moby, haha... 👍
To be honest, the rest of the lineup didn't capture my interest very much, especially once I heard that the entire schedule had been pushed back.
Those Editors guys, if that is indeed their name, weren't particularly impressive to me; they felt a bit lackluster, honestly. Perhaps the last few songs were slightly better.
The Nerd performance was quite ridiculous... at one point he shouted, "I wanna see some fat chicks on the stage!!" It was a bit much. 🙄
As for Moby, I have already expressed my thoughts—he was absolutely magnificent, truly beyond words. I honestly never dreamed I would hear "Feeling So Real" performed live. 😁 😁 🙏 🙏
Regarding the other stages—they were underwhelming. Tent 101 was virtually empty when we arrived, and I lost interest shortly thereafter.
The metal acts didn't appeal to me in the slightest (no offense 👍)
I can't recall the name of the group that played before the headliner, but they failed to leave much of an impression on me either.
