Yeti Stage. 2:15.

Traversed the landscape. Goth girls with free CDs. Locals with no shirts on. Open alcohol policy is back. 15-year-old kids who can't remember their name. Eastern Washington.

Made it to the yeti. With the giant campgrounds as a back drop, Portland's buzz band The Blow has attracted a giant crowd of hipsters and hippies, hosers and Hotties. The electro-pop sound is part sexy, part silly. Between songs, Khaela Marich, the band's solo member, will break into cutesy monologues that make you feel you have known her for years. Not to mention, she has a voice as sweet as the pink daquries. Don't miss your next chance to see her live, or the daquries (the local bartender says that "off the record" they are much stronger than the margaritas). This is not your father's festival.
