What do you think of Vice Magazine, readers? Do you like it or hate it?

And so the penultimate day of the festival ends. To be honest, it really does almost feel like day nine was kind of the final day; certainly for press and industry, anyway. All of the press screenings end by the afternoon, and it’s the last day the press office and the video tape library are open all day. We had a fairly quiet day, filling in some films that we didn’t get a chance to see in the festival until now, before hitting the Peter Mettler Elsewhere event and the Midnight Madness. We heard that there was a Vice Magazine party on, but we also heard something ridiculous like it was held in an abandoned factory that was on fire.

Horrible. Shocking. Cronyism. Unappealing. What's with the outfit on Pam Coburn's son? What exactly was he wearing during her press conference yesterday? Moreover, what was he thinking?

An appearance by Vice Magazine cohort Pat Buchanan is heavily rumoured, since Vice founder Gavin McInnes is all best friends with the RW fanatic now. Buchanan was in fact spotted at the Houston, Texas stop of the trendy tour, singing along to DFA1979's "Black History Month". Of course, in keeping with Vice Magazine style guide, Mr Buchanan was being ironic.
