03. Mac DeMarco’s Covers Medley

Canada’s scuzz-pop king Mac DeMarco closed his Friday-afternoon set with a grip of covers. He and his band ran through Bachman Turner Overdrive’s “Taking Care Of Business,” a punky rendition of the Beatles’ “Black Bird,” some of Limp Bizkit’s stress bomb “Break Stuff,” with Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” as the conclusion. It would have been a perfect raucous ascension to end his set, but he chose to leave on the sweetest note of the festival, pulling his girlfriend onto the stage with him before performing “Still Together,” an ode to enduring romance. As if nuzzling her before kicking off the cut weren’t “aww”-inspiring enough, he hoisted her atop his shoulders and held her up there, as he “oooh”-ed out the last hook. Love is pretty cool, guys.
