<description>&lt;p&gt;No no no. 

Muse, by far, the best set of all 3 days.

BY FAR.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;I am surprised that you did not comment more on Muse...They were more than capable of filling the slot left by white Stripes... In fact they deserved it...They may not be well known here in the states by all... but if given the chance I think all will agree they are something to talk about.... They didnt win the award for Europes best live act for nothing.... &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Did anyone else notice the smell of puke that permeated the air on Saturday afternoon. I&apos;m dead serious, it smelled like fresh vomit all over Zilker.  Anyone?  Anyone?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;<![CDATA[as far as sound bleed between stages was concerened i noticed that many times throughout the weekend.  the worst of which was for the del mccoury band set.  they are a traditional string band who typically play w/out individual mics or intstrument pickups, using ye olde crowd-around-one-microphone method.  this micing techinique was modified for the festival using 3 mics instead of just one, and while that did seem to help, it didnt really make enough of a difference.  the reality of the situation was that a string band on the austin ventures stage cant compete w/ a rock band (heartless bastards) playing at the same time on the nearby attblueroom stage.  the mccoury band and their fans were really victims of poor planning from festival staff more than anything.  they should have played in the wamu tent.  anyhow......


yeah, ocote sol were excellent.
an austin "all-star" band of sorts:
martin from antibalas on bari sax n flute was the band leader along w/
adrian and dave from bluenoise, grupo, 
brownout,etc on guitar n reeds 
(bari sax & clarinet) respectively;
jj and spiece from habmx on bass n drums;
guitarist (eddie?) and keyboardist (dont know his name) from echobass ;
ephraim owens on trumpet,
some unidentified conguero.
they were excellent if you like groove based music.]]>&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Austinist (wisely) chose Arcade Fire over Muse.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
