Max Creek, Galactic, Rhythm Devils featuring Bill Kreutzman, Mickey Hart, and Keller Williams, Primus, Deep Banana Blackout 7/31/10 GOTV Seaside Park

Hippie mainstays Max Creek start off Saturday at the Vibes. They do a memorable cover of Donovan's Sunshine Superman. Next up is Galactic, fronted by a trombone playing rapper which added necessary sauce to this mostly instrumental troupe. Always good to see Galactic's Stanton Moore (drums) and Ben Elliman (sax). Listened to Umphrey's McGee on radio vibes. Rhythm Devils set with Keller was hot. Cold Rain and Snow, Uncle John's Band, Fire on The Mountain, Bo Diddley, and Voodoo Zombies were all good. Unsure of the choice of Primus to end the Saturday mainstage set. After a weekend of kind vibes, Claypool and company definitely have a sinister vibe. With a trippy lightshow and Les' nasally whine, it seemed to pull songs from Sailing the Seas of Cheese recording Sgt Baker, Jerry Was a Racecar Driver, Here Come the Bastards, and a great American Life. Primus also did a nice cover of Pink Floyd's The Wall. Late night again with Vibes house band Deep Banana Blackout. DBB did a P-Funk tribute with Cosmic Slop highlight. Late late night with Turbine playing on the sea wall, all they needed was gas for their generator and agreed to keep groovers away from emergency vehicle lane and they jammed till dawn
