Firefly 2013
So the second year of Firefly came and went. It was a pretty good experience, despite how bad my feet are aching right now from all that working.
I wasn't a volunteer this year, so I wound up camping with my friend Mike and his buddy Freddy. It was an entirely different feeling than last year, because the crowd was twice the size that last year had. It took a really long time to get to our campground, and we wound up parked at a spot pretty far away from the festival, which was a shock from last year, as the volunteers get camping pretty close.
I had a somewhat downer of a Saturday when I thought my wallet was stolen, but it turned out to have been lost in the Home Depot where I used the bathroom, by a friend of a friend of my sister's. Only in Delaware.
In terms of humor, apparently my friend Mike got lost while tripping on a hash cookie that he took in full. We also had a rather funny conversation Sunday night with an 18-year old guy who was tripping on acid, and took an incredibly round-about way time of telling us about how his life was over because his girlfriend thinks he hit on her friend. I've always found people who were tripping pretty funny. It was also a reminder of just how shitty being 18 can be- everything is soooo life and death when you're that age. It made me glad that I have some years on me now.
Overall, the event was pretty awesome. I saw Wild Belle, The Avett Brothers, Calvin Harris, The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Alabama Shakes, Edward Sharpe and the Maginficent Zeroes, MGMT, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Matt and Kim, Dispatch, Passion Pit, Vampire Weekend, and Foster the People. I'd say I enjoyed RHCP, The Alabama Shakes, Matt and Kim, and Foster the People most.
