i believe there were way more female arists at the fest this year. it was pretty awesome. i think half the acts we saw were female. we saw katzenjammer, tift merritt, kaki king, st. vincent, yeah yeah yeahs (all on fri.), also playing fri. were grace potter, ani difranco, santigold, lucinda williams. then sat. there was jenny lewis and heartless bastards. sun. we started with the lovell sisters and also saw erykah badu. i can't remember there ever being that many. there should have been an all female super jam.
all female superjam: katzenjammer on all kinds of instruments and vocals tift merritt on guitar/vocals kaki king on guitar st. vincent on guitar/piano and vocals karen o on vocals grace potter on keys/vocals other girl from grace's band on bass ani difranco on guitar/vocals lucinda williams on guitar/vocals santigold on vocals jenny lewis on guitar/vocals girl from heartless bast*rds on guitar/vocals gabriela on guitar lovell sisters on mandolin,dobro, banjo fiddle and vocals erykah badu on drum pads and vocals neko case on vocals girl from chairlift on keys/vocals janelle monae on vocals
over 20 different girls, not all at the same time, but in like different pairings. it could have been awesome.

^ I saw GPN's regualr set, then the Sonic Stage set, then she shows of for Mule then appears out of nowhere during Moe. I was like "Jesus, this is like the Grace Potter fest, this chick is everywhere". She's pretty awesome. The sonic stage set was funny because the front say 1/3 of the audience were all guys with their tongues hanging out clicking pic after pic haha.
Loved Ani's set. Living in the Northeast I've seen her over twenty times and was a little worried about the fan interaction at Roo but it was awesome. (I was too drunk to really notice how well the fans were into her 04 show.) She seemed to have a good time, too!
FTR, I saw Janelle Monae, Tift Merritt, 1/2 St Vincent and then over to Grace Potter and the Nocs, Ani, Jenny Lewis, Grace Potter and the Nocs' mid-moe. set, Grace Potter and the Nocs' Solar set, Erykah Badu and Neko Case.
