Apparently the rumor on Twitter is that someone in the crowd up close to the front for MCR had a gun in their waistband, but I can't seem to find the source of the rumor... just people repeating it fwiw I’ve seen the same thing floating on Twitter Oh, it’s for sure true then imo |

I’ve also seen reports of men filling up skirts of women during MCR. Whether true or not- not the kind of rumors you’d like floating around your festival!
Hope everyone had a good time!

I got food poisoning at riot fest I think its because they did a secret partnership with an international mafioso group giving stomach bugs to people so that they can do Dna harvesting from feces and also I saw 7 people who were actually lizard people and also during Zola Jesus a man with a katana forced people to give him their debit cards.

I'm not certain why they had you walk through the metal detector with your bag and everything in your pockets on hand. My phone presumably set the alarm off every day and I don't feel like they did a through enough search on me to confirm that that was the only thing setting it off. |

festivals objectively have just about as many downsides as upsides but the desire of everybody to make every festival like fyre festival or Woodstock 99 is so funny.

If you didn't make it in on time for the Ukraine Tribute on Saturday afternoon you missed something special. A crowd standing together hoping for peace for the brave fighters from Ukraine. was moved to tears during this. |

Only guns I saw this weekend were Wretched's absolute pythons.

some questions that came up over the weekend:
1. what percentage of riot fest attendees have a tattoo? is it the highest percentage of any big music festival?
2. what percentage of total skin space amongst all attendees had ink?

I was dead center from the stage and parallel to the sound booth for NIN. They were awesome as always but there was lots of overlap from the Red Rocks show. I thought the same but "Burn", "The Perfect Drug", and "Shit Mirror" were nice inclusions to the Riot Fest set. I thought Trent seemed more animated last night though. He broke two guitars which I haven't seen him do in some time. |

I had a genuinely great time yesterday.
That Nine Inch Nails set was really good. It was my first time seeing them and I barely listen to them on record, so I had no idea what to expect. Pretty incredible spectacle. I would happily see them again when they oppose BLACKPINK at Lolla 2024.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs were incredible. Sucks that they only got an hour, but the new songs sound great and everything else was obviously A+. Sleater-Kinney fucking rocked. Loved that set and I hope they remain a regular part of the festival circuit.
I was surprised at how much I liked Jimmy Eat World. My gf loved them in high school and she said this might have been her favorite festival set of the year.
Coolio played for like 8 minutes?
Less Than Jake was good. I didn't know that I knew so many of their songs since I hated that type of music growing up. I guess it was just impossible to avoid.
