Whether you love this two-day, center-of-the-city’s-music-scene extravaganza (I’m pretty sure I use that word too much), or the logistical nightmare of too many stages and too many people gives you the willies, you can’t deny that this year’s lineup is top-notch. From Les Savy Fav to Past Lives, Fleet Foxes to Chromeo, DeVotchKa to Truckasauras, the Hold Steady to the Physics (and on and on), there’s something for most everyone.

 

Plus, (as in Man Plus) there’ll be some of the best people-watchin’ since your ex-brother-in-law dragged you along—quite literally—to the Mullet & Wife-Beater Convention in Greenbo, Alabama where the untold amounts of moonshine you consumed resulted in a freakishly bizarre scenario aboard a garbage barge putzing through the Hudson River. Holy moly.
