Spiritualized

Once Pierce’s spiked water kicked in, so did the spontaneous miming.

Look Ma, no trainspots!

Spoon

Shock of the festival: arriving years late to the Grey’s Anatomy bandwagon, Spoon invites T.R. Knight to be their new drummer. Even more shocking: to get the gig he beat Jim Eno to death with his bare hands, then donned his faux-fedora in triumph. He fit in just fine.

After an hour of sweaty consternation, Britt finally achieves Lovelessocity.

The Dodos

Tanya Harding just comes out of nowhere again.
