The last time I was in the presence of Foals was at Coachella 2013, and I didn’t even get to see them because I couldn’t get past the hordes of people overflowing from the Gobi tent.

This time I went early to grab a good spot and caught the opener, Son Little.  After doing a little research, turns out the guy had a collaboration album with RJD2 & has worked with The Roots.  He’s bluesy and soulful with a bit of reggae mixed in and I was super impressed with his voice.

Foals were everything I wanted them to be.  They were filthy, high energy, sounded incredible, and had really sick lighting.  The lead singer leapt from the stage into the crowd a couple times with his guitar and during Two Steps, Twice, came up to the balcony level where I gave him a hi five.
