Theme: The New York City Popfest On Air: Frank

This show highlighted my experience at the New York Popfest back in May, in fact the first two sets were from CDs that I bought at the festival. The next set was a combination of other bands that played the festival and songs that were covered during the shows. Overall, it was a great time and of course being in New York City is always cool, especially walking around Harlem at 2 in the morning. The best conversation I overheard on the subway was one teenage girl telling her friend that she was bummed that she didn't have her iPod, the cops took it when she got busted and she hasn't had the time to get up to the Bronx and get it back, but she only has a month to do it. I won't go into a detailed description of the festival here as you can see the daily summary of my impressions of the New York Popfest on the Wall the Fireball XL5 radio show facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=2437232020 Fireball XL5 Setlist - June 11, 2009 Smittens - 11:11 My Teenage Stide - Grim Wind Cats On Fire - Steady Pace Eux Autres - When I'm Up TALK Suburban Kids With Biblical Names - Loop Duplicate My Heart Burning Hearts - Iris Pants Yell! - Tried To Be Good A Faulty Chromosome - Bad Things TALK The Radio Dept. - Freddie And The Trojan Horse The Drums - Me And The Moon Very Truly Yours - Homesick The Sixths - Falling Out Of Love (With You) Matt Pond PA - In The Aeroplanes Over The Sea The Go-Betweens - People Say TALK The Lucksmiths - Good Light Spent - Excuse Me While I Drink Myself To Death Surf City - Dickshakers Union Pretend You're Happy - The Other Side Of The Earth Matt & Kim - Daylight TALK Threatmatics - Big Man The Interiors - My Little Pony Ribbons - Plain The Fizzbombs - Sign On The Line TALK Nouvelle Cuisine - Comunicacion no verbal (C) Denotes Canadian Content
