Bill Bailey C

 

Dame Shirley Bassey P

 

Manic Street Preachers P

I also saw a lot of stuff at the Jazz World stage when I was drinking Brothers Pear Cider but I don't remember much of them except Rodrigo y Gabriella because they were supporting Muse at Wembley the other week. I also saw quite a few other comedians at Cabaret stage but cant remember their names.

 

 

 

Was a pretty amazing weekend. Arrived on the Wednesday and pitched up in the camping site by Lost Vagueness which is a big higher than some of the other places and less likely to flood but there were already loads of people there, loads more than last time that's for sure. The weather managed to stay nice for the first day which was good to sit back and relax with a 2l bottle of my favourite tipple but it turned pretty nasty over the next few days. The mud was pretty grim but all the welly sellers seemed to be happy with their extra takings hehe.

 

 

 

No pics from me however, dropped my camera in the mud :( (was only a disposable tho)

 

 

 

I'm still pretty tired so ill probably update this with more stories if this thread stays active but for now i shall open it up to the public and fellow revellers. :D

Man, I'd love to see Amy Winehouse. She's so sleazy and cool. And her new albums is very good.

Heh, I wondered if you were going again this year.

 

 

 

Looked awesome, watched as much coverage on the beeb and online as I could.

 

 

 

Who were the best? Or is it too hard to say?

 

 

 

Definitely going to try and go next year.

Its too hard to say really. I had the best time for Editors and Kaiser Chiefs but there were still loads of other really great bands. Bloody sound was borked for the Killers tho :(
