Overheard at Mission Creek is a selected list of Tweets-from-last-night. Each day we’ll take you through a collection of some of the things Iowa City folks have been Tweeting about the festival. Let’s go, because there’s cake.
Maybe you didn’t notice, but everyone was really attractive at Mission Creek. That person over there you think isn’t hot? NOPE, SEXY
#MissionCreek I might mission freak, there are some hotties up in here!!

The Mission Creek lit crawl is basically church for us. The Word of the Matt.

There’s even Janeane Garofalo out there casually buying bead supplies.
The n+1 reading at Beadology in Iowa City a major success. There’s even a stand up bass! #missioncreek #iowa twitter.com/nplusonemag/st…

You’d be surprised what the public library gets used for. Let’s just say rawk is up there for “one of the more appropriate things we’ve seen at ICPL” #read
I just explained to some folks that the rawk coming from @icpl was teens doing #missioncreek. “Well, what else would you use a library for?”

OH: “wait, this is a SF thing?”
Get to the Yacht Club now to see Jeff Ray, founder of Mission Creek San Francisco. Pay respect y’all. #missioncreek

There is something incredibly adorable about Ian and Kembrew tweeting the exact same thing within 15 seconds of each other from slightly different spots at the Mill. The Pines were also adorable.

We were doing mad air backup vocals all night at the Blue Moose. Shoulda done a collab.
Me and Red are doing mad air drums behind the sound board for Emperor’s Club. #missioncreek instagram.com/p/Xv15EypM7u/

I’ve got a headache for a couple of different reasons and this is one of them.
Rager of a headache from laughing so hard at the Englert. Thanks, #missioncreek

Mission Creek Friday is apparantly cover band night.
I like when bands that are not cover bands do covers #50waystoleaveyourlover #zammuto #missioncreek #awesomeness

No Coast covering The Strokes at #bluemoose #missioncreek #IsThisIt instagram.com/p/XvxN7ivgrB/

@scooteur Divine Fits did an awesome “You Got Lucky” by Tom Petty tonight. Plus … “Shivers” by Nick Cave. #missioncreek

If you didn’t get some of this damn awesome Emperor’s Club cake then you missed out. Seriously, it was like my 10th birthday party all over again – ladies with cigarettes cutting a sheet cake for all the kids.
CAKE. MISSION CREEK. #missioncreek #missioncreekfestival @ Blue Moose Tap House instagram.com/p/Xv83dPA6Uo/
— Kelli Jackson (@kellinore) April 6, 2013
It’s also the convulsions the fire marshall was having about the “capacity” of the Blue Moose last night. Probably illegal and dangerous but what isn’t.
I think I get why they’re called Divine Fits now.It’s what happens when you see them live. #missioncreek
— Dolan Murphy (@dmur) April 6, 2013
Pretty sure we heard a couple not on the list.

See you tonight at Killer Mike, Greg.
I would like to point out that I am not actually in Iowa City. My attempts to troll @littlevillage have been futile. #missioncreek
