Post Dour Fest Facts

This is how it all went down at the Dour Music Festival: 4 days of alternative music and love, Made in Belgium with Love.

Thursday's artists I saw: Son Lux, Leaf House, Future Islands, Chet Faker, Darkside, Gramatik.

3 pikachus.

4 kings: King Camping B, a lion king, a shower king, and a shirtless tired king.

Friday's: Apaches, Bombay Show Pig, Intergalactic Lovers, Fakear, Raekwon, Band of Skulls, Klingande, Little Dragon.

And there is nothing like peeing in a festival port-a-potty to remind you of humanity and the current place you hold in it.

A unicorn and dragon dancing together.

2 days of sunburns, 2 days of mud wrestlers.

A viking, another dragon, and a banana.

Saturday's: 65daysofstatic, Shigeto, Cypress Hill, Girls in Hawaii.

Seas of Quechua tents and so many fedoras in so many colors.

2 deaths (Please, be smart and hydrate; be caution of cocktail drugs).

Sunday's: Moaning Cities, Lisa LeBlanc, Deap Vally, Dub Inc, Casseurs Flowters, Kaiser Chiefs, Pheonix (Tyler the Creator missed his flight).

All in all, sounds like your typical festival. It is a dirty, muddy, peace-loving, smelly, sweaty, love-loving, thirsty, ugly, pretty, international, crazy culture and I'm proud I'm part of it.

DOOOOUURREEEEEEEE!
