PHOTOS: Pitchfork Festival 2011

Moshpix: Music fans trekked to Union Park by the thousands for the annual Pitchfork Festival over the weekend. Festival organizers reported sell-outs each day, to the tune of 18,000 people Friday through Sunday. Free bottles of water were given to festival attendees to help stave off the stifling temperatures. We checked out the festival scene Saturday, both on stage and in the crowd.
