Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting (Day 3)

The third day of Bonnaroo was another long day, but probably one of the best. We had some cloud cover, and it was a little cooler thanks to the rain the night before. I am noticing from these pictures that we are starting to look tired, but honestly I didn't notice it at the time. We caught some of Little Feat before heading over to Mastodon. After that we headed to the main stage for B. B. King. This guy is 82 years old and still amazing. We also caught partial sets from Ben Folds and Jack Johnson before settling in for Pearl Jam. They played nearly three hours with a few rarities and a couple of great covers. They finished around 1 AM and we made quick stops to see some of Phil Lesh as well as Sigur Ros. Around 2:30 we went back to see Kanye, who was supposed to go on at 2:45. After a couple of delays and an increasingly restless crowd, he actually hit the stage at 4:30. We made it through about two songs before heading back to catch the shuttle. By the time we made it to the hotel, the sun was up.

As a sidenote, I had planned to eat alligator for dinner that night. When I went to the booth, I was told they were out of gator. I ordered chicken on a stick and was told they were out of sticks. I ended up with chicken on a plate with a fork--not nearly as interesting as the alligator plate would have been.
