1. Allen Stone- Absolutely crushed his set. Unbelievable performance. Brought out a gospel choir from Nashville to help out with his cover of 'Is This Love' 1A. Superjam- Everything had been said. Epic. 1B. Paul McCartney- One of the best experiences of my life. I can't believe this is third. 4. The Revivalists (all 3 sets)- If you havent seen this band... please do so. They are playing a tent in a year or two. What a great band. Sonic Stage set was killer. 5. Hip Hop Super Jam- Missed Wu Tang for Wilco so it made them coming out even better.
Those 5 shows stood out. Great year. I also want to give Macklemore his due. I went to his show because some friends wanted to see it and it was a great performance. Really fun show and Can't Hold Us was one of the most fun songs of the weekend. Very surprised with him.
This question is borderline impossible. I'll try though.
1. Bjork - I've been waiting 15 years to see her and she absolutely blew me away. Hperballad made me cry like a baby. 2. Paul McCartney - I mean come on, really? The end was mind-blowing. 3. Kendrick Lamar - Dude was spot on for a hip-hop slot and played everything I wanted to hear. Very impressed. 4. Pretty Lights - Yeah, always fun to watch the sunrise while still dancing. 5. R. Kelly - Are you fucking kidding me? This show was incredible. Doves. Balloons. Sweaty as a motherfucker. Kitchen Sex. 6. Lord Huron - Always great to see a band for the first time and have them succeed. 7. Baroness - They're back and they seemed beyond excited to be playing again. Cheers. 8. Portugal. The Man - I want their guitar tone to be the constant noise in my ears. It's beautiful. 9. Purity Ring - OK, so all of their songs sound the same but they're all damn beautiful. 10. A&AP Rocky - Now THAT was the rowdiest set of the weekend. Way to cap it off.
I can't believe I forgot about ALO! I started really digging them before I left for the fest and was glad I got to catch some of their show. They made themselves a fan for sure.

Bernhoft was so fantastic.
Squish is the most adorable child in the history of children. I bumped into him and his mom on Sunday, they were sweet as can be.

I saw a shit load of the comedy acts because I was working the comedy tent. Had it not been for that, I'd probably have a few more musical acts in my top 10 lol. It was all worth it though.
JOHN FULLBRIGHT is number one. seriously best performance of the weekend. Paul. it was number one til fullbright's set Allen Stone was awesome and i had no idea what to expect from it going in Pretty Lights- it was a great time with my friends. ended up in the pit Frank Turner was a blast! Tom Petty- also a blast! Rock'n'Roll Superjam- if you were there it's on ur list too Bluegrass Superjam. perfect "pre game" for petty Bjork tie between Father John Misty & Kacey Musgraves

1. Paul 2. The National 3. Jim James Superjam 4. Wild Nothing 5. Foals 6. The Vaccines 7. Portugal. The Man 8. Django Django 9. Lord Huron 10. David Byrne & St. Vincent (would probably be much higher if I saw the beginning of the set)
Didn't get to see as much as I wanted to, but most of what I did see was very high quality. Also a lot of surprisingly good sets (I wasn't expecting much from Wild Nothing). Besides the conflicts, this year was nearly perfect.
