One of the first complaints is "dad" rock bands, like Steely Dan performing last year. Not a big Steely Dan fan, so I have to agree here. There's a lot of funny pictures of people dressed or made up oddly. I guess, that's an acquired taste.

Again, I realize, these are just some of the more colorful festival goers, so maybe next year, you go, and take in all the sights and sounds.
