Not quite 52 summers! Just glad to have made it before the big 40.
Not trying to plan too much but will try to catch Edwyn Collins, Raconteurs, Bluetones, British Sea Power, Futureheads, Vampire Weekend and Elbow, hopefully with Richard.
Had a brief look at times etc. All depends on the weather, and where we end up camped.
I'm going with a veteran so I'm happy just to take it all in and see whatever band I end up around at the time.
I'll probably end up with shakin' stevens and jay-z with a bottle of whisky.
When are you heading down? We're hoping to get there 9am-ish Thursday.
I hope you have an enjoyable first one!
Hiya,
Thanks for that. Cracking wish list with much in common with ours. (pose alert) We saw British Sea Power in Austin @ SXSW & they were amazing, so they're a must see; So are Vampire weekend, been listening to their album for a few weeks now. It's great to see Mr Collins is well again
I didn't know the Bluetones were playing
I'll definately be watching Richard with Elbow
If we end up with Shaky & Jay Z, I'll gladly join you in a few large ones!
We're leaving Hebden Bridge early Wednesday morning hopefully arrive Wednesday lunchtime / afternoon. I've left me mobile number. Give us a call / text if you fancy meeting up.
Cheers
Michael & Jo
PS I notice Mr H is playing with Elbow. I really should read posts before posting myself
Didn't get your pm before I left, but hope you enjoyed yourself as much as we did.
Fanastic 4 days, loads of bands, amazing people, rain, sun, beer, it really had everything.
Highlights? Too many but watching Richard and Elbow in the sun sat supping a nice cold beer, Vampire Weekend, the Bluetones, Billy Bragg doing "Here comes Richard" with Carl Barrat, the Futureheads singalongs, Editors, Kings of Leon, that Thai meal deal for a fiver, washing my hair at 5am in the morning under an ice cold tap with the sun coming up.....oh and that girl who fell over our tent at 3am and was advised by her friend to take her sungalsses off! They may have been pissed?
