I literally just let out an audible squee. Bumbershoot, you rock.
Okay, so I thought Bumbershoot couldn’t get any better, right?
Well, WAS still isn’t there, so it doesn’t have the maximum level of awesome, but this just made my day.
The comedy lineup this year is going to be off the chain (and yes, I just said “off the chain”).
So you don’t have to actually go the Bumbershoot website, here are the comedians who especially tickle my funny bone (that sounds dirty).
PATTON MOTHEREFFING OSWALT (it’s like he never leaves. Seriously, he was at Bumbershoot last year and Sasquatch a month ago. I’m fine with it though, because no other comedian makes me laugh harder. Not even Demetri Martin.)
CHRIS MOTHEREFFING HARDWICK (I told him via Twitter to come to Bumbershoot! Maybe he paid attention, right?)
And a couple who are also quite funny.
DONALD FRAKKING GLOVER (he should bring Joel McHale with him)
GARFUNKEL AND FRAKKING OATES (since I did happen to miss them at Sasquatch)
There you go Bumbershoot, making me love you even more.
Love him.
Chris Hardwick at Bumbershoot. So awesome and nerdy.
Check out the rest of my shots during the only comedy set I could get into. I sadly missed Patton, because EVERYONE loves Patton.
I get to see these guys AGAIN this weekend. I think The Thermals and Surfer Blood may be the only repeat from Bumbershoot.
Wait, and Ra Ra Riot and Laura Veirs. And the Decemberists, but I didn’t even get to shoot the Decemberists. UGH I’m so excited. And I’m surprisingly not tired. Bumbershoot high anyone? This better last all the way through Musicfest Northwest. And as much as I LOVED the 70-200mm, it’ll be the relief to know that I’ll be inside buildings most of this next week. No rain, and my nice light lil’ 50mm.
BUMBERSHOOT CREDS - ACQUIRED.
Boom goes the dynamite!
Anyone going to Bumbershoot?
Who should I see? And would you like to meet up and share some curry with me while at the festival?!
Anywho, if you are going, you’ll probably see me toting around a giant ass camera lens with me every day slipping my way in and out of the photo pit in front of y’all. Cause I’m a rockstar.
