Gone Pitchforkin’

***This is an automated response.***

Thanks for clicking onto the site. We’re currently out of the office (read: aren’t at work blogging at our jobs when we could be doing the actual work we get paid for) (j/k if my boss is reading this. LOL). The Post-Rockist is at Pitchfork Music Festival.

Sadly, we’ll be commuting Friday night, so we’ll miss Mission of Burma, Sebadoh, and Public Enemy, but we’ll have our usual half-assed coverage for Saturday and Sunday, with pics and stories about whatever trouble we got into and updates on the bands and the fans.

Here’s what’s cool. Pitchfork will be streaming live much of the weekend festival here, so tune in and see if you can see us. We’ll be the ones in swimming trunks, parkas, and Native American head dress.

Here’s a quick list of some of the artists we’re really excited about seeing:
