    Al Green was a class act!!!

    by madera on 8/18/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    This event was enjoyable and clean!!! All the bands that I saw were on their game!!!! I especially enjoyed Amos Lee and look forward to hearing more from him. The crowd was well behaved except for the kid who urinated on the ground behind us while we were watching Al Green (Not Cool Dude) I would have liked a little more time to get from one stage to the other...I missed the opening songs of three of the bands.:( I really enjoyed the fact that I was able to get fresh fruit from an organic Farm vendor and fresh Tea from the coffee vendor. I go to a number of concerts a year (next stop ACL) and Outside Lands is in this years top 5.

    couldn't get much better

    by nipplehead on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    Amazingly hassle-free,with a backdrop of food, drink and merchandise vendors as well as alternative venues like the dj tent this year's OL festival featured an incredible line up of musical acts set in a beautiful and karmically perfect locale. For us old guys seeing and hearing Further achieving lift off brought tears to my eyes. I never thought I'd hear that music again. Edward Sharpe and the magnetic zeros were a revelation and definitely deserve best in set award. High marks also to Amos Lee, The Temper Trap and The Devil Makes Three. KOL brought me to the Festival and they did not disappoint, great song selection.Finally, for those of us who have worked hard over the years and can afford it, the VIP package was really worthit.. will certainly do it all again next year.

    Loved the composting and recycling and the fact that volunteers were making sure people actually placed items in the right place. I also loved the refillable water bottle stations. The music was good. There were only a couple acts I wanted to see on Sunday but it was still enjoyable all around. A good way to get your feet wet to the music festival scene. People were friendly and mellow. On the down side the porta potty situation was pretty awful by the end of the first day. Most stalls didnt have toilet paper, were filled and dirty. Seems like they underestimated the needs based on ticket sales.

    I loved Electric Six!!!

    by Zudboy on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    Every year I go to the Outside Lands festival with the goal of being exposed to new bands. This year's winner for me was Electric Six. I can't believe I had not heard of them before. I loved their energy and songs.

    Outside Lands 2010 Was Fantastic!

    by EricaGibbons on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    Amazing! I was fortunate enough to go with someone who also enjoyed the lineup. Wow, there were a lot of people, and my friend and I had to rush to get to each stage, but it was certainly worth it. The only problem I was there wasn't enough time! I was frustrated with having to choose between Al Green and Edward Sharpe, I went with the ladder which was an excellent choice! I managed to see Al Green, for he is legend and it was a must! He was amazing, but the young and relatively rude crowd weren't as impressed with his iconic value. That did not stop me! I was dancing and screaming lyrics to "Love and Happiness." I wish that it had gone later. Most of the shows were in the day time, but when night fall came the lights and environment completely changed. We watched Empire of the Sun, which turned into one huge night dance party! So, hopefully next year the day will go later! The food was really good! It was reasonably priced and I was impressed with the amount of green options they had in terms of composting, organic, and healthiness! I was impressed with that and the green crew! Of course, there is no such thing as driving to the city considering all you will do is face crowds of wandering street people and horrid traffic. Taking MUNI there was not an issue, but coming back was a pain. It took about 30 minutes for us to get on a bus that wasn't full. But might I add that MUNI was on top of it, and they tried to send out as many buses as possible, but there were just SO many people. Overall, it was a fantastic day! I am definitely going next year, and am going to many other festivals alike! I hope everyone had the same amazing time as I did, because these events have to keep happening!

    Phoenix and Kings of Leon were GREAT!!

    by Melikosuave on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    Phoenix and Kings of Leon were amazing, but Al Green didn't seem appropriate for the venue. He was a little off putting and seemed like a waste of time.

    awesome, need an extra day and more stages!!!

    by Papazappa on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    The event was amazing, really awesome bands, amazing wineries and the BEST food I have ever ate at a festival... ever! It was jam packed though, I wish it was an extra day longer and had more stages, i think then it wouldn't have been as packed in, but still really full. It's give the festival more variety and other bands a chance to showcase.

    Outside Lands madness

    by Jenadon on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    Outside Lands was fun this year. There were a lot of good acts, but there were WAY too many people, especially on Sunday. They had all the DJ/electronic music/dubstep during the day, and the soft rock at night, which definitely should have been switched around. There were a lot of bands I had never heard of that were really sweet, like The Budos Band and Beats Antique.

    Not a coachella

    by anjaloka on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    Drinks were WAY overpriced (didn't eat at all while there - so I don't know about food), they were serving wine in tiny little easy to spill cups, there were little covered up areas (not for the sun - but for the wind), transportation was ZERO after the concert, no ins and outs BUT line up was great, had a great time and I only wish to this event to become better and better

    Further was Fabulous!

    by GtwnLady on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    As always, anytime you hit a Further show, it's a great day! Marley too loud, Kings of Leon and Further not loud enough --- problem with that stage? Social Distortion best overall sound 4 oz for a glass of wine...are you kidding? Day Two overcrowded Not enough bathrooms...bathrooms pretty disgusting by 2 pm

    Getting its feet wet

    by Natty2Handz on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    I LOVE SF - I LOVE THE PARK I LOVE THE LINE UP: variety and popularity But... Outside Lands still has some catching up to do with regard to the following: Sound - the wind impacts the sound causing fade ins & outs Food - towards the end of the night vendors were out of everything. Cell service - they need a sponsor to beef up service during the fest Other than that - it was brilliant

    The linup was fair enough, including gogol bordello and wolfmother that were the 2 best groups of the afternoon. And then came the Strokes, very good.

    by Mee1uh on 8/17/10Golden Gate Park Outside Lands Festival - San Francisco

    Beautiful day at the park with unbelievable performances all around! I loved the atmosphere and, it being my first time to SF, I couldn't have asked for a more amazing time in the city. Every act blew me away and I got to see everyone on my schedule.
