Boy Scott really didn’t like that Dracula movie. More than he didn’t like Who’s Your Caddy? Which more or less means we’ve failed terribly at our Worst Movie Ever bid. Time to bring out some Big Guns

As the laundry machines spin and spin and the house is slowly getting cleaned up after a weekend of nearly nonstop partying, we reflect on the third and final day of Osheaga.
Sunday did not start well for us. The battery meter on my camera flat-out lied to me and told me that I was going into the day with around 66% power. Somehow on the trip to the festival site it died completely. Stupid lying camera. That meant that all of today’s photos had to be shot on my phone. Fortunately my phone’s camera is pretty sweet. Secondly, the lineup to get into the site was disastrous. Sarah had to wait for over 45 minutes just to get in.
The good news is that it was all up hill from there.
With Sarah still stuck in the never ending line I took the opportunity to bounce around to catch a couple of songs of performers woefully booked at the same time. I managed to catch the tail end of Bishop Briggs set and then head over to the Island Stage to watch some of Weval‘s set as well. The crowds for both acts were a good indication that the Osheaga festival goers had kept something left in the tank for an epic finale to their weekend.
I caught just one song from Phantogram’s set while I got my first beer of the day and honestly, I am glad to report that they’ve upped their energy level from the last time I had seen them play (Osheaga 2014 if my memory serves). Phantogram has always been a band that I have enjoyed in the studio but never really clicked with me live. Either way, it seems like 3 extra years of touring has helped them knock the kinks out of their live performance.

Well here we are another Thursday another 9ES. You guys ever see the Black Mirror episode where the girl gets a clone of her dead boyfriend back with a personality built off of social media detritus? Well, 138 episodes of the 9ES later I bet you could build pretty good Scott, Jon and Keith bots that would more or less keep this up forever. Is that peak civilization? Will anything ever get better than that?
Yes.
