fucking amazing weekend. maybe the best atp i've been to, and i only got to see little bits of a bunch of bands.

* ten or eleven hours of oneida jamming/recording/rehearsing with collaborators including aaron from tall firs, members of flaming lips, boredoms, no neck blues band, zach hill and tons more
* no age / bob mould was amazing though i only got to see three songs :-(, but one was with brandon cox helping them do a cover of chinese rocks so that was pretty sweet
* the low lows playing an extra gig next to the lake, and then their trombonist accompanying the kutshers regular entertainer guy on covers of showtunes and time of my life from dirty dancing
* insane party on saturday night with some couple having sex in the walkin closet with 100+ people just outside
* boris feedbacker absolutely incredible
* 9 drummer boadrum fucking insane, included some crazy 8 necked electric guitar that kept being smashed every now and then. drummers included kid millions from oneida and zach hill
* sufjan seven swans set was beautiful
* last night in one of the hotel lobbies which has a grand piano there was a massive jam session featuring punters and band members including brandon cox playing some microcastles stuff on piano, circulatory system people playing, and most weirdly ryan schrieber from pitchfork playing tiny dancer by elton john
* ian svenonius dance party on saturday night = ridiculously fantastic
* generally lovely crowd
* nick cave played piano with dirty three
* another great jesus lizard show, and the main stage has no barrier thus tons of good crowd interaction
* dj last night playing 4/5 smiths/morrissey songs in a row

exhausted now.
