This event was great! It's sort of like Seattle's version of Woodstock, but not quite. Nevertheless, it was amazing! All of the artists played with their heart and gave the audience what they paid for!

The event was all together what I expected and more! J Cole, I didn't even know who he was but now I do and I love him! Drake performed to kill! He was def. not a let down and Mary J Blige is def. vocally talented. Her dancing was funny but she kept the audience dancing.

Mary J was worth the wait and standing in the rain. She looked and sounded even better in person. Wish she performed longer, but she gave 100%. She is a true R&B singer who left her soul on the stage.

Toyota tent, you rocked! I made a Shrinky Dink, spun the wheel for a prize, took car booth photos with Edward Cullen, and the bands were great!
Bomba Estero from Colombia were especially cool, psychodelic cumbia!
Like a Good Neighbor, State Farm tent gave me a T-Shirt and a massage!
Thank you Mary J for an especially great show for all your fans singing in the rain! It was awesome!

The main event concert was the best! J Cole, Mary J and Drake was awesome! Cant wait until next year. The food was okay. Don't ever eat the hot dog it was the worst! As good as the food is in Seattle they surely could have found better vendors from A-Z. The T-Shirts were thin and expensive.

Saturday:
Art installations in NW Rooms were great!
Concert "The Round" on Saturday was wonderful.
Bob Dylan sucked. Memorial Stadium is a terrible venue.
Couldn't understand a word of any of the groups; Decemberists, Neko Case or Dylan.
I know Dylan mumbles but still....the acoustics in that place are terrible!
Food served in the stadium...terrible.

Only at Bumbershoot can you go see such a wide array of wonderful music. From funk to Folk (Horse Feathers) to up and coming alternative ( Hey Marseille, RaRa Riot) to punk ( Bouncing Souls) to Electronica ( Delorean) to Blues ( James Cotten ) and soul. Followed by great headliners like Billy Bragg and Weezer. Bumbershoot always introduces me to new music and is a great place to take the kids

Bumbershoot was a lot of fun. It was well organized and easy to get around. There was also a lot to do, and it was a safe environment to enjoy music in. There was sufficient seating and standing room for those who wished to do either. The stage was high up making it easy to see from a standing or sitting point for many people. I really enjoyed it.

Despite the fact that the weather brought out seattles true colors this sunday, the bands totally made the wait worth being in the rain all day. The cold war kids, the honey brothers, michael franti and spearhead, and jason mraz were all unforgettable performances! I would recommend bumbershoot to anyone and everyone!

Even though it rained all weekend, Bumbershoot was a worthwhile experience. Great variety in music and comedic tastes, wonderful local color, well-laid out and facilitated! My only annoyance besides the wet weather, was the festival program's organization by venue. Difficult to see who was playing when.

Bumbershoot was really fun and had a really good setup. There was so much going on all day long. It was definitely a great deal for the tickets especially if you buy tickets in advance. The weather was not very good during the day, but it didnt ruin the day and I was still able to have a great time! The main stage was a good setup with a nice floor area and stadium seating for peope who did not want to to stand. BUMBERSHOOT WAS AWESOME!

All the performances were great on Sunday. I especially loved Michael Franti & Spearhead. I had not even expected them to be so good but they were by far the best of the night. Jason Mraz was also amazing with his great voice and crowd pleasers.
