Over the weekend the third annual Vegoose Music Festival
took place at Las Vegas'
Sam Boyd Stadium. As in years past, the event featured a mix of jambands (moe.,
Umphrey's McGee), conscious hip-hop (Atmosphere) and indie-rock (Blonde
Redhead, The Shins), but this year found promoters Superfly Presents and A.C.
Entertainment delving into metal (Mastodon), rap (Cypress Hill, Public Enemy),
dance (Daft Punk), alt-rock (Queens of the Stone Age) and politically-charged
rap-metal (Rage Against the Machine.) Vegoose also incorporated a number of its
sister festival Bonnaroo's other activities, including the Silent Disco and a
full marketplace. Though the event featured one less stage than last year's
four-stage circus, Vegoose drew approximately the same number of fans and
headliners Rage Against the Machine and Daft Punk both played for around 20,000
people. Relix was onsite throughout the weekend, producing the festival's official
newspaper, The Golden Goose. Both the Saturday and Sunday editions of The
Golden Goose are now available online, featuring daily recaps, exclusive
interviews with Vegoose performers, crossword puzzles and much more.
