Manchester Orchestra
Electric Ballroom Stage, Music Midtown. After the one-two punch of Joy Formidable and Band of Skulls, I had to retreat for a while to find some shade and get something to eat. When I got back, I couldn't even get near the stage at which Atlanta's own Manchester Orchestra were playing. People in the first 20 or so yards from the stage are waiting to see Coldplay on this stage later tonight, and are trying to stake out their territory with picnic blankets. They're getting visibly annoyed as the young crowd surges froward and takes over "their" space.
