The final day of Desertfest came to a close Sunday and finally I have gotten around to clearing out the backlog of links for this 15 band day.  Clearly Dozer was the band of the day.  I also had an affinity for Acid King.  I still was doing the Tee Pee merch table sales so those were the only two sets I saw in their entirety, although I got a bit of Russian Circles, Green Lung and anyone who played outside as the window behind us overlooks the outdoor stages of this 3-stage day.  Otherwise I popped in, got my quick snaps and a 30-second clip and scurried back to the table.

That conversation was miraculously remembered over half a year later.   Another friend of mine had RSVP's for the free Tuesday Night Series at Union Pool passed on to me that proved to be useless since they don't guarantee entrance.  Fortunately, I got there early enough that I was 3rd to last to secure entry.  For future lines there, if it...
