Things We See: Popped! Edition

POSTED: Monday, June 30, 2008, 6:59 PM

Things We See happens when we take pictures of weird things with our cellphones. Not to be confused with Jeff Deeney’s "Today I Saw," which has actual societal value.

I realize I'm a little late on posting these pics from Popped! two weekends ago, but I was on vacation last week, so shut up. Above you'll see what is very nearly the coolest bag ever: Sleater-Kinney rendered as Lego figures (photo was snapped near the front of the stage during the Mates of State set).

At right is freak-out electronicat Dan Deacon (in the blue T-shirt) entering the human tunnel he instructed crowd members to create. He says, sadly, he was told he had to cut his set short by about 10 minutes which prevented him from closing with crowd favorite "Wham City." (which you can hear here as performed at his Starlight Ballroom set last year). Attentive viewers will spot Inquirer music critic Dan DeLuca at right preparing his Popped! reports.
