The main stages were on late because of a ten minute delay incurred by Boots Electric’s ego and another 20 minute delay for some unexplained reason (everything from drug busts to faulty equipment to weather was bandied around). This resulted in seeing most, if not all of Paramore.

I would say “people who like them liked it” but that would be going around the question at hand as to whether or not they can actually perform. Which they can. Surprisingly quite well as well. And I guess any band that drives thirteen year old girls away from Taylor Swift and towards a festival with Jane’s Addiction and Faith No More while singing about beating up your ex-boyfriend is a good thing.

Just one thing: can Hayley Williams shut the fuck up? On-stage banter is okay, but prohibited after every song unless your name is Andy Falkous.
