Brooklyn indie-rockers Grizzly Bear made their late night debut in support of their latest effort, Veckatimest. After a failed try at performing on David Letterman's Late Show earlier in the year due to the show running out of time, the foursome more than made up for it with an ethereal performance of the track "Ready, Able" backed by a string quartet. Check it out:

I finally had the chance to see Grizzly Bear at Bonnaroo, and they were very good live. I'd really like to see them in some dark dank club though, as that's where I believe they'd shine. Great music.

Saturday continued with plenty of artists to get excited for. Headliners The Dead played an amazing three-and-a-half hour show, while the daytime saw different stage performances from bands like Son Volt, Jackie Greene, Zappa Plays Zappa, The Black Crowes, Les Claypool, MSTRKRFT, Umphrey's McGee and EOTO.
