Guided by Voices' Robert Pollard
So, it’s been almost a week since I emerged from the time capsule of cool otherwise known as The Pitchfork Music Festival 2011, and I’m finally getting to a place, emotionally, where I can talk about it. I’m starting to feel like myself again. Getting back to wearing pants helped with that transition.With this being my third tour of duty at the annual buffet of indie relevance and indie-rock reverence in Chicago’s Union Park, I knew what to expect — the aural consumption of a few dozen bands, as aided by the oral consumption of a few hundred beers.
Because I’m such a stuck-in-my-ways curmudgeon who’s only breaking through to new and exciting levels curmudgeonality after turning 30, I fell on the side of reverence this weekend — reinforcing my undying love for the underground legacy acts, and feeding my appreciation for a select handful of indie rock up-and-comers (like OFF!) while not really learning anything new or noteworthy about hotly tipped blog darlings beyond their hot tips.
Friday :
With that in mind, Day 1 (Friday) was, for this aging rock fan, really all about one band and one band only: Guided by Voices, who were slated to perform at 6:15 p.m. Such being the case, my 4:30-ish arrival — with a trusty photo-biographer in tow — gave me little time to cram in the marathon pre-gaming sesh that’s a prerequisite for any GBV show ... especially one that singer and steward Robert Pollard proclaimed was of the final four of the band’s reunion tour.
So after stocking up on beer tickets, I let a folkie set courtesy of sonic old guy Thurston Moore function as background music while I double-fisted brews and cased the park, which with its three stages triangulating a little league field was set just as it had been in years past.
Since my sense of fashion is even duller than my sense of tact, I’m suitably unqualified to adequately capture the abounding cornucopia of hipster chic I was effectively tainting with my socks-and-cargo-shorts combo, except to say that I did see a lot of dudes who looked like a young John Waters sporting long tank tops and the Rachel Maddow haircut, and a lot of dames lookin’ like Tucker Carlson in a sundress.

And like Bonds, AC had the aid of performance enhancers — in their case, tie-dyed soccer jerseys, a stage adorned with what looked like rags made by Hyper Color, and rave-worthy rainbow-colored lighting — but lacked the heart of true champions.
