Wowee we finally made it to Day 3, and somehow our dogs weren’t even barking this year! More like a low whimper. We didn’t hit the day too hard but caught some fun sets packed with fans from Portugal the Man and Blondie, while Fleet Foxes sang soothing harmonies to a strangely empty stadium. Can […]
