I was following the pack
Jun. 25th, 2008 02:31 pmRight. I'm about to head off to Glastonbury. I have, in accordance with all accepted principles of leaving ones car in large car parks, emptied my car of everything. Accordingly there is nothing in The Box. Nothing at all (except some sugar, from a bag of boiled sweets which fell over months ago).
Emptying the car means that things I regard as essential travelling companions - say, jump leads, a socket set, spare builbs, WD40 - are sitting on the front room floor. Anyone place folding money on me breaking down over the weekend ?
Just in case anyone misses hearing What's In The Box on Friday, I thought I'd share this with you instead. I heard it on Radio 1 on Monday night and got quite excited about it.
Fleet Foxes - White Winter Hymnal (on youtube)
Quite an unusual sound for a Seattle rock band.

You like Glastonbury, is that for the atmosphere or the bands....Can't say i've been...maybe one day !

But the readon I prefer Glastonbury to other festivals is the prodigious amount of Stuff there is to see - comedy, cabaret, theatre, millions of tiny stages, performance artists all over the place, gardens, art, things to join in with... I could have a great weekend there and never go near the main stages. It's quite unlike any other festival I've ever been to.
