Every time I see them perform they make me happy. It’s music, it’s painting, it’s one-shoe-off fun. There are ghosts, there is love, there is an eye mask.

Note the painter below, hard at work during the show. That’s one of the two paintings created during the set. It always amazes me how well the paintings turn out, and it’s fun to watch the artists sing along and move to the beat while they work.

Before Cloud Cult performed, The Dutchess and the Duke took to the stage. They had a few audio difficulties, though I was near the front so I didn’t really know there was a problem and it all sounded good to me. But they decided to hop off the stage and play amongst the fans without any amplification at all.
