Governor Ball returned to Randall’s Island over the weekend with acts like the Strokes, the Killers, Against Me!, Beck, and De La Soul playing. While the weather forecasts predicted thunderstorms for Sunday — leading to the cancellation of the festival’s third day on June 5 — many didn’t expect for the showers to come on Saturday, June 4. While Haim and Miguel were performing at their respective stages, it began to pour, which led many festival goers to escape the island. However, there were still plenty of partiers ready to finish out the day’s festivities and dance in the rain.
