Bumbershoot '08

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
The weather cooperated and spared us a drenching Saturday, so we enjoyed a belated summer day at Bumbershoot. Food on a stick, mimes on stilts, skateboarders in the halfpipe, and more great music than could be properly covered in an afternoon.

Neko Case delivered the goods, including some great covers and much-anticipated songs off her new album due out next year. We also caught fantastic performances by The Asylum Street Spankers, Nick Vigarino, and Joe Bonamassa - whom I'd never heard of but who blew me away with his Stevie Ray Vaughn-meets-Robin Trower sonic wall of blues guitar.
