Festival season started early with a surprise phone call from our good friends Nora and Eti. They were on-route to Southside festival, Germany and suggested we join them. To which we thought long and hard for at least a second before the unanimous decision was made. To Germany we rolled...
Southside is a relatively small festival which attracts some great bands; the highlights for me included Flogging Molly, The Chemical Brothers, The Womats and The Enemy. Annoyingly someone stole my wallet whilst we were dancing to "everything is going wrong, but we´re so happy" - JoyDivision by the Wombats. Luckily as I´m pretty much living a tramps life it must have been the most empty wallet steal in history!:-) Sad to leave, we successfully managed a 1000km drive in a day - in order to catch our ferry to Glastonbury.
Glasto was immense! If you haven´t been - go. Even if you don´t like music you will have a great time, there is just so much to do. I actually spent most of the days in the comedy / circus tents, and my nights in the Jazz tent. My festival highlight was a 200 person only Wombats gig in a tiny tent. My many hours queuing was rewarded with eventual entry. Jay-Z was without doubt the best headliner and blew me away (- after making my way through a massively packed crowd, in an unsuccessful attempt to reach my old boss, Katie). It was however great to meet up with my ex-collegues; Alistair and Chris, and their Friends.
