rainn is a pile of drizzle

don’t you dare rip on Dwight K. Shrute

Michael Stipe looks like he’s been laying face-down in the sand. Clean up, you’re a wealthy middle aged man!

Any notion I might have had about seeing The Rocker was extinguished by having to sit and listen to Rainn Wilson ramble (in an entirely unfunny way) and insult the bands.

Seriously, man, we waited ALL DAY to see The National, and when they finally showed up, you took ten minutes to rip on the lyrics to Squalor Victoria before they took the stage. Even if it was supposed to be ‘ironic’ or ‘funny’, it wasn’t, just extremely fucking irritating.

This website is impossible to navigate. I want to read more of this blog, if there is more. If not, it’s not really a blog, it’s more of a blurb.

And Rainn Wilson was obnoxious. Making fun of stuff is easy, making killer records is not. The National:1, Wilson:0.

Rainn is my favorite.

Anyone who would have taken the time to research this any further would realize that while Rainn Wilson was at this festival he said many times that he was excited because bands like THE NATIONAL were some of his favorite. So, I think it goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway for those of you that still might not get it, that he was being SARCASTIC.

The Office is great, and the Dwight character is funny, but Rainn Wilson totally bombed at Sasquatch.

He twice wasted 10mins of my life with his inane, long-winded, boring, and excruciatingly frustrating attempts at poking fun of the bands.

It was especially cruel to keep us waiting for The National’s actual show. They were already 20mins late and Rainn Wilson’s unfunny rant ensured that The National and Modest Mouse overlapped completely. I was seething.

Rainn, your blog is a farce. I’m especially annoyed that you comment on both The National and Modest Mouse, when you were partly responsible for their sets overlapping so much.

Oh, and Jayson, I think everyone gets it. Rainn was being sarcastic, but he certainly wasn’t being funny or amusing when he read those lyrics line by line trying to mock every phrase.

Well I think it’s a safe bet that The National wasn’t like standing on the sideline signaling for Rainn Wilson to shut up so they could go on. Ever hear of having to fill time at a festival like this because scheduling rarely ever goes according to plan?

Rain wasnt to blame for the Nationals set being moved. There bus broke down on the way down from BC, he was “filling time” because (I imagine)there was a struggle to get a band to fill the hole left, which was the Fleet Foxes who played a second set on the day.

I think some indie guys are mad he made fun of their beards as ‘the new flannel’. ha!

Everyone should just bow down to the man whose brain created the character of Dwight K. Schrute. Enough said and all arguments are void. Period.
