Wakeride 2011

This past weekend Wakeride 2011, a music and wakeboarding festival. The wakeboarding? Missed all of it. Didn't see a single second of it. However the music was awesome! Got to see Lyrics Born and K-OS on the same stage! Theres not much to say, except that it was awesome! I had a blast at the shows, as well as seeing some friends from Manitoba who came up to Saskatoon and stayed with me.

Now here's a bunch of pictures

Things got off to awkward start between Matt and Chad

Thankfully, Lyrics Born came on and lightened the mood


Then K-OS came on, and rocked the house. The dude had great crowd interaction, and i was so close I could almost touch him. Which sounds creepy, but I swear it isn't!


Next, there was this security dude, who wasn't entertained at all. Lighten up!

At one point, one of the band memebers started shaking a pineapple at the microphone. There must have been something in it that made noise, but I like to think that he was just shaking a pineapple for the hell of it.

And then, just as my bladder was about to explode, K-OS finished his totally awesome encore, and that was it. Show's over!


I don't really have much more to add. I got kicked in the head by a crowd surfer, which wasn't fun, but that was just a small blip in an otherwise awesome night. If you can catch this guy live, do it! Or better yet, if you can come to Wakeride, let's go next year!
