| Bunbury Music Festival
Bunbury Music Festival is a summer festival taking place in Cincinnati, OH for the last few years. This year's attendance was roughly 20,000 while last years attendance was only 8,000. I was lucky enough to get to go to the Sunday show yesterday and see some of my favorite bands. Excited for next year already. | | 1 |  | The Front Bottoms

This was my second time seeing The Front Bottoms and again they played a fun show | | 2 |  | The Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band
Big Damn Nation
I had never heard of these guys, but it was definitely an interesting group to see while trying to kill some time before Manchester Orchestra | | 3 |  | Manchester Orchestra
Cope
This was my first time seeing them live and they sounded great. With that said, I do not think that they are a band that I would highly recommend anyone see live. Their newest album Cope didn't stick with me too well and their setlist was heavily weighted with that album. The setlist was:
Pride
Top Notch
Shake It Out
Pale Black Eye
Pensacola
Every Stone
Barry Bonds
I Can Barely Breathe
I've Got Friends
Everything to Nothing
Cope
Where Have You Been?
Barry Bonds
*No "I Can Feel a Hot One" :( | | 4 |  | Lil Dicky
So Hard
This was another performance I watched to kill some time. I can't say I'm much of a fan of this music at all, but I will say that this guy should definitely just stick to making music videos. He also pulled a random girl from the crowd on stage and basically molested her in a chair... the girl looked about 14 years old to me :/ | | 5 |  | Brand New
Daisy
This was my second time seeing Brand New live and it was just as captivating for me (fan boy). Unlike last time, Brand New seemed happy to be there and actually acknowledged the crowd in front of them. When they finished I thought they were only about halfway through, time flies. They played Mene, but I wish they had played Sealed to Me or another new song. Their setlist included:
Mene
Sink
Gasoline
Millstone
You Won't Know
Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades
I Will Play My Game Beneath the Spin Light
Okay I Believe You, but My Tommy Gun Don't
Seventy Times 7
*They were going to play Mix Tape, but Jesse couldn't tune his guitar properly
At the Bottom
You Stole
Sowing Season
Degausser
Jesus
Welcome to Bangkok | | 6 |  | Twenty One Pilots
Blurryface
This was my third time seeing Twenty One Pilots live and as usual they put on a killer performance. This duo is by far one of my top 3 live acts. Backflips, jumps, drumming in the crowd and just overall theatrics make their show unbelievably fun and memorable. It was also great getting to hear most of my favorite songs off of their new album. The biggest disappointments were how crazy the crowd went for "Fairly Local" (imo their worst song) and how many high school age kids their were just video taping, snapchatting and taking pictures the entire show non-stop. What ever happened to just watching with your own eyes? Their setlist included:
Heavydirtysoul
Stressed Out
Fairly Local
Holding on to You
House of Gold
We Don't Believe What's on TV
Lane Boy
*filmed music video
Ride
No Woman, No Cry
*Bob Marley & The Wailers cover
The Run and Go
Tear in My Heart
Car Radio
Guns for Hands | | 7 |  | Snoop Dogg
Bush
And last, but not least Snoop Dogg performed last. I do not normally go to rap concerts, so this was an interesting thing to witness. Snoop played only about 4 of his own songs. the majority of his set consisted of songs he was featured on (such as California Girls by Katie Perry) where he would play the chorus and then sing his verse. He also played the song "I love Rock n Roll" for seemingly no reason (he didn't sing anything during this) and then proceeded to play one song by Biggie and one song by Tupac (which he also didn't sing any of). Interesting stuff. | |

06.08.15 | All in all, it was an awesome concert (I'm extremely biased because of Brand New and Twenty One Pilots though) | AndManyMore
06.08.15 | I just moved away from Cincinnati early this year and never knew about Bunbury until this year. So pissed off. So not only am I lonely in another city, I get to see a bunch of my friends having fun at the festival on snapchat.

06.08.15 | @AndManyMore I'm sure you saw plenty of snapchats.. I swear thats all half the people at concerts do now. Anyway, I'm not surprised you didnt know about the concert, this was apparently the first year they got such big name acts. Where did you move to? | AndManyMore
06.08.15 | Pittsburgh.. could've driven back for it except I got my license suspended in March and I've already taken Greyhound enough times to want to kill everyone that works there and myself included. | Feather
06.08.15 | haha Makes sense. Hopefully you get your license back soon, thats quite an inconvenience. I had to drive down from Columbus. |
