too noisy for me, not enough folkies.
Do you know who the Bella Union guests were the other night?
It is very noisy...but also quite diverse. I like festivals where you get to see loads of stuff that intrigues you but you wouldn't necessarily pay to see, and this fits the bill to a tee.
The Bella Union guests were some band called the Irrepressibles or summat. Chris said they were awful.
Ah that's a shame about Bella Union. I guess everybody expected it to be Fleet Foxes so it was doomed to be a disappointment unless they actually got FF to play. But it also makes me feel less disappointed that I missed it, though I would have liked to see Peter Broderick again.
Also, I asked for a photopass for Andrew Bird. Rich said he asked for a +1 and suggested I ask you to come, sooooo.... wanna come and be my guest (if I get it)?
Oooh, yes please! Incidentally, Rich asked for a +1 for my guestlist spot for Camera Obscura at the Lexington- it hasn't been confirmed yet but I reckon he'll request your mad camera skillz if they say yes. So keep 16th March free just in case!
brilliant :)
