The Horrors

Too beautiful for words.

Field Day photos and The Story Of Corn Star...

Field Day was amazing this year but there were way too many good bands to see. The music was definitely bang on trend and the synthesiser and MAC book was everywhere. It was hard to escape the "ambient noise" but this is what NOW is all about. I am not complaining. Just a very obvious fact. 

  Highlights music wise would be Creep, Zola Jesus (simply outstanding live), Warpaint (blurry dream), James Blake and THE HORRORS. What can I say.... BEAUTIFUL. I am glad to say I am still not too old to head bang in the front row and still enjoy jumping around with sweaty boys. The Horrors were a proper band with proper instruments and ... well this is what makes me go weak at the knees! 

  We managed to get free drinks for the entire festival due to friends with passes and free promotions. Actually I discovered a very nice whisky blend beer...  which I love! Much better than the San Miguel.. whatever it was all free!

   The whole atmosphere was pretty fun even if the weather was a little cold. It was so much busier last year and felt like a proper dirty festival!. . . Me and Tim even tried to enter a corn eating competition to win a guitar! Alas to no avail (WE WOULD SO HAVE WON IT) .. only three entrants actually participated and apparently my name (it had to be corn related) of CORN STAR wasn't the best. . . hmm. I think it was epic. I am still disappointed. My 20p tom-bola whistle didn't quite make up for it!

As much beer as you can drink

Field Day!

Field day on saturday was amazing. A perdect mix of good music and relaxation...not your usual drunken festival but just a time to be happy.
My absolute favourite moment would have to be when The Kissaway Trail played an amzing cover of "Where is My Mind" by The Pixies ... it really was goosebump material. They are a pretty hot new band complete with two front men all the rest and a crazy man with a tambourine.... at least it gives us untalented people who dont play a musical instrument hope!
Watching Lightspeed champion with Wolfie was euphoric even if I did break in to the odd spurt of irish dancing and Caribou surreal... I think they are wonderful! I have included a few pictures and one of me and alex looking a tad grumpy whilst trying to avoid the inevitable face twitch caused by fashion bloggers and there flashing cameras.
It was colourful and peaceful, summery and calm... just a fab day!
...and my glasses are hilarious!

I couldn't find Where is My Mind but here is Caribou with "The Sun"...
