Jens Hannemann, which I missed, was apparently funny. (Psst! it's really Fred Armisen from SNL!)

He played drums in a humorous manner.

Then Joanna Newsom took the stage. While beautiful, it was also late at night and there was still plenty to see at the festival. Many, many people left with the same observation: "I love it/it's beautiful/etc.../but it was putting me to sleep and I just can't handle that right now."

Some photos from Andrew WK's motivational speech, which was essentially, and I quote from him directly, "Trick yourself into being happy!"

The audience loved it, though I was told by a friend, "I truly do not know if this is satire or not."

At some point, mid sentence, Andrew stopped and began to wrassle with his chair.

And then he sat back down and continued his advice on being happy.

I must tear myself away from the Dirty Projectors at the Tennessee Theatre to post some of the shots we've received from Shawn Poynter before it's too late:

Potentate of Big Ears this year is Terry Riley.
