The Outside Lands at the Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, California is unfortunately on the wrong coast for mmMix to make it to. However, the festival has a great lineup, which we wanted to feature here. We are always happy to oblige fans and provide a sampler. Enjoy.
Saturday August 14th
Furthur Feat. Phil Lesh & Bob Weir: Truckin
Phil Lesh and Bob Weir, formerly of the Grateful Dead, joined together to found Furthur in 2009. No surprises here in what they will be playing.
A mmMix fav, and one of the concerts still on my list to do before I die.
My Morning Jacket: Touch Me I’m Going to Scream, (Part 2)
Gogol Bordello: Start Wearing Purple
Cat Power is a notoriously unreliable performer. She walks off stage if you look at her wrong. I would love to see how she performs under this kind of pressure.
Wolfmother: Joker and the Thief
This song really does kick ass.
I don’t have the proper stereo to fully appreciate what is going on here. I bet it will blow you away live though, literally.
Tokyo Police Club: Your English Is Good
These guys are cheerfully Canadian, the video is as well.
You absolutely have to watch this video. One word, horses.
Rebirth Brass Band: Do watch wanna
This is incredible.
Wild Beasts: Hooting and Howling
These guys are good, my find so far of this sampler.
Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars: Living Like a Refugee (Is not Easy)
Langhorne Slim: I love you, but Goodbye
People Under the Stairs: The Wiz
These guys are grimy, in a good way.
The Whigs: Right Hand on My Heart
This song will sound familiar to you.
