Live at the 2008 Pitchfork Music Festival

Pitchfork.tv: Les Savy Fav / Fleet Foxes / Dizzee Rascal / The Dodos / Caribou: Live at the 2008 Pitchfork Music Festival

More videos from this past weekend's Pitchfork Music Festival are up over at Pitchfork.tv. The first performance is from Les Savy Fav. You know you're in for a good time when Tim Harrington has a Sherlock Holmes cap on and is crowd-surfing in a trashcan. This version of "We'll Make a Lover Out of You" does not disappoint.

Fleet Foxes will probably never perform half-naked or spit beer into their fans' mouths, but damn, they sure do sound nice live. Those harmonies! "English House" comes alive in Union Park.

Dizzee Rascal performed directly after FF and made clear off the bat that he was going to be delivering a different kind of live experience. Here he is wailing away on "Sirens".

It ain't easy being a band of just a few people all alone on the big stage, but San Francisco-based acoustic rockers the Dodos rose to the occasion. At least Meric Long had two microphones to choose from for "Fools".

And finally, it was mid-afternoon, we were in the mood for a melody, and Dan Snaith's Caribou gave us "Melody Day".
