Melvins - Missed them but the bit I heard from the line was righteous.
Fantômas - Excellent top notch performance that was crazy precise and similar to the albums. They didn't have enough presence for that large of a venue (I think their sound guy might have just sucked) and their stage was too cluttered to really tell what they were doing.
Clutch - Absolutely blew me away. One of the funnest bands I've ever seen.
Primus - Badass.
Tool - The loudest, so they gave me what I wanted on that level. They had an amazing visual display that I wish I was higher for. They played a long set, too long imo, but they probably wouldn't have played Opiate material (their best imo) if it was shorter. I've honestly nnever seen a more excited and passionate crowd, for better or worse.
Great shows all around nonetheless. Venue is garbage. It was so mother****ing hot. It was a good experience.
