I shot this on the way into work Friday morning with the full intention of it being the #vlomo10 entry for that day. A timely Benny appearance at the 1000heads offices kindly put a stop to that however, so here is Friday’s original entry; slightly out of time – but nonetheless, still here.
It’s just like being back at Glastonbury! …Yes – I know I haven’t written up my Sunday at Glasto yet (it’s coming – there’s a draft saved here that I need to finish) but I just HAD to update and share the crazy rain/hail we just had round Fulham way! Check out the photo and video below!
First day (officially) of the festival and Wow WOW WOW!
There’s a lack of photos currently due to cursed battery power! Again!
But today.. I have seen:
Gogol Bordello
One CRAZY Russian punk band! The most amazing way to start Glasto.
Seek them out.. “start wearing purple, wearing purple!” ..after that came:
The amazing Amy Winehouse..
Wow. What a show. ‘Valerie’ went down a treat!
…before I carry on.. I need to share something with you -
Yes. A few thousand people will applaud Amy Winehouse – but there is NOTHING quite like hearing One Hundred and Seventy Thousand People cheer like they’ve never cheered before.. Why? THE SUN CAME OUT! Wee!
Ok..back to the story – after Amy came The Magic Numbers – i love this band.
Such HAPPY music..
However – the best part of THAT set was when they rounded off with a Guns’n'Roses Cover! Fan-bloody-tastic…
Had a little sleep after all that lot.. And now… I’m waiting for The Arcade Fire to come on…
Thank God blogs aren’t in ‘smell-o-vision’ – otherwise I’d lose my readership VERY bloody quickly..
Nice! Well…
Anyone who knows anything about Glastonbury will know that EVEN THOUGH IT’S A SUMMER FESTIVAL (it is June after all folks) it is traditional that no matter what.. It rains.
Well.
You’ll be pleased to know that I took a few photos from inside my tent this morning..
Have a look see.
All I can say is:
Thank God Jana managed to get some cagouls yesterday during our Last Minute Welly Dash!
