"Must buy their entire cd collection immediately" goes to The Magnolia Electric Company


"Animal [a la Muppets] drummer of the weekend" - was nearly taken by the drummer in The Dodos until I realised that he was playing 'maths rock' (a la Battles & Foals) whilst the band weren't - so the award goes to drummer in Wildbirds and Peacedrums.


"Oldie who has just learnt the blues" - stays with Seasick Steve who has that corner of the market sewn up - sorry T-Model Ford but it's not yours


"It drove me to tears it was so beautiful" - goes to The Low Anthem (Garden Stage set) - actually two times winners of this award, both from within the same set.


"How much can we rip of the middle class punters by for food served with low overheads (eg no waiters, disposable crockery etc)" - to all those concessions charging £7 or more for their offerings eg caribbean jerk chicken, Scandanavian kitchen.....)

Any band who can get away with starting a set with a deathly quiet song about someone dying of cancer has to be pretty special!

There is the matter of how much they pay for the actual concession to take into account.  Prices seemed totally in line with other festivals and Wok's Oriental Platter (3 meals in one trough) would be great value in any takeaway!
