Last Tuesday night I caught Midlake at The Earl and they were really awesome. Here’s a couple bad pics ( I swear I’m getting my own real camera soon):

If you are unfamiliar with these guys, think Thom Yorke meets Fleetwood Mac. They just released a digital EP called Oak And Julian. Here’s a cut and a bonus:

Midlake : Oak & Julian : Roscoe (acoustic)
The Chemical Brothers : We Are The Night : The Pills Won’t Help You Know (Featuring Midlake)

The two big additions i missed were Spoon and Rabbit In The Moon. Back in my short-lived raver days, Rabbit In The Moon was my favourite electronic artist. They are like taking Flaming Lips and GWAR to a rave; their live show is an incredible spectacle. DJ Monk is no longer part of the team, but with Confucius still producing the music and weird-ass frontman Bunny doing really trip stuff on stage, I can guarantee the spun out wooks are gonna love this show. If you are going to this fest, don’t miss this show(and don’t be sober for it):

Bunny was riding in a ball across the audience way before Wayne:

Mastodon’s Brent Hinds is in the hopsital from a head injury that occurred at the MTV Video Music Awards. Some Mastodon related vids:
