1. Mr Husa's Polaroid Camera. I've wanted one of these for ages. Forget digital cameras and iPhones; this beauty, as unpractical in size as it is cool in terms of pics, is the only real media for festival documentation.
2. The XX. They had me at Intro. There was running, jumping fences and a lot singing and hugging caused by this gig. Romy Madley Croft, you rock my world.
3. Nakki Tehtaanmyymälä. Vegelihikset. Who ever thought someone would start making those? Best. Shit. Ever.
4. Jallu shots at the bar. See #8 for elaboration.
5. Bajamajat. Especially the Mens'. Very little queueing on that side. Or in general, for that matter.
6. Interviewing people about their Flow-related Facebook status updates, which included (but were hardly limited to) 'is going with the Flow', 'varrella virran', 'is overflowing', 'antaa virran viedä', 'has an afterflow', 'is WOLF', etc.) Such clever wordplay.
7. Running into friends. And having celebratory, happy chance encounter drinks with each of them.
8. Managing to fish 147,5 euros worth of anniskelualue receipts out of my wallet on Monday morning. Which is weird, cause i remember telling most bartenders i don't need the receipts.
9. Surfer Blood. I caught a glimpse of them live at Coney Island some weeks ago, but missed most of the gig. This entirely made up for it.
10. Biking home. By Sunday night i was actually doubting whether i could do it. Nevertheless, both the bike and owner found themselves at home on Monday morning, aching and semi-dead, but quite pleased with the weekend. In a state of post-festival afterflow, even.
