What happened:ÌýA whole lotta talk. Pretty much everyone ATL has bumped into since arriving onsite around 4pm has name-dropped Janelle Monae, the pint sized OutkastÌýprotégée responsible for one the funkiest albums we've heard this year/ever.
Electric Dreams: That entrance really works for us. AnÌýimpeccablyÌýdressed ring-leader informs us of the majesty we can expect in the next hour, before the stage empties and a glorious overture breezes over a very expectant, very large gathering. Soon after,Ìý'Locked Inside' bottles the hype - slinky, catchy and insanely funky. We're won over.
Ants at a Picnic:ÌýWe find the sinister black cloaked dancers a little scary and the dancing nuns a little offensive. Except not really.
Electric Picnic rating:Ìý8/10
