1. Doheny Days: Day 2 - Doheny State Beach - September 9, 2012
This year, Doheny Days stepped up it's game big time by supplying a two-day festival that the epitomized the idea of bringing area-worthy headliners to a festival that didn't feel over crowded or overloaded with acts. Headlined by Jane's Addiction and the Flaming Lips, this weekend at the beach made the drive down to the depths of South County well worth the trip. While day one was heartily impressive, on Sunday The Flaming Lips elevated the festival to it's zenith, bringing out stage props, from the expected giant bubble to large hands, light shows, colorful cannons and giant balloons packed to the brim with confetti. Stremers the stage and the massive audience in carni-like fashion. Lead singer Wayne Coyne even had a video camera attached to his microphone to show an enlarged fish-eye view of his face behind the band, which gave way to very animated expressions, tears included.--Jackie Connor
