Hometown favorites Polica roared through a strong set, with double drums setting a titanium foundation and Channy Leaneagh's voice flowing over the band. She dedicated "Summer Please" to North Minneapolis, where she lives, calling out "factories pumping lead" that harm residents of all ages. Although Polica's sound has evolved a great deal from Give You the Ghost to United Crushers, songs from all three of their albums sounded seamless side-by-side.
