Victorious in Portsmouth, August bank holiday weekend: tickets are cheap too!

 

 

need to go for the full weekend though, you'd be nuts to miss the flaming lips..

[greenArmy12]

Made a great call leaving Hot Chip for SFA, proud of myself for that one

this is true Russy, already on it!

 

that is one cheap festival. SERIOUSLY CHEAP. Well worth the £30 and rolling in before the 2nd last band both nights. Primals into Flaming Lips and SFA on the 2nd night more than justify the spend.

 

And its bank holiday weekend to allow for travel back! I am sure I can coach it too for next to fuck all.

Good shout Balti Pie for the festival and Russy for notifying me Flamings were playing! I had no idea!!

I was singing, 'you know they don't give a fuck about anybody else' all the way back to mine. Couldn't help it.

They were INCREDIBLE!  Really great crowd too - including Jim, who gave me a couple of kisses on the forehead (that'd be the MD...) - aside from a couple of twats who tried to start a fight near me just after they finished...

[grandadcollective]

Agreed best set.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Just watched it all back. I loved it then and do now.

I thought the crowd were a bit flat though. At the time and online. Until the end when they picked up.

There were some very fucked people around me. Struggling to stand and smashing into people.

Other than that, I had a great time.

The last 20/25 mins was especially fantastic

Not sure if I can do another festival this year - but that looks fantastic...

I'm definitely going at them prices assuming I don't get raped for accommodation which is likely! Cheapest I have found so far is £180 for 2 nights

[balti-pie]

I paid £55 for the two nights - I booked it within ten minutes of the event being announced. The transport links should be pretty decent, so you could look at Southampton, Fareham, Chichester etc as well as Portsmouth and Southsea

[mungo57]

good idea Balti, Southampton is a good shout as are the others. Will have a look around. Great lineup there, will see what I can do.

If it was a late 20s bloke and a small blonde 20 something girl, that very well might have been me.  I do apologise.  What a set though.

Erm, if it was a mid 30's dude and mid 30's girl (who doesn't look her age at all....) it may have been us...I was hammered, didnt even know I was right at the front till me pal told me.

 

Sorry if it was, bloody rum!!!!

[windy_miller]

RECEPTACLE!

 

FOR THE RESPECTABLE!

 

What a tune.

[CHRLY]

I don't think they really come across that well on the BBC footage, had to be there maaaaan

Im probably another who could have the finger pointed at for that! (Sorry if it was me!)

 

First Glasto since 2011 without the sprogs and there was a fair few bevs had in time for the Furries.............

 

Although I was probably hugging people more so than smashing into em

[FuzzyDunlop]

It was one particular group of about 4 lads, who were just jumping into people. So we moved, then another random who hit the floor about 5/6 times after smashing into everyone, then he and had to be propped up.

It wasn't anything major, I had a top time. My first ever Park headliner was a definite success.

Ah I'm a girl, so as Shaggy says 'wasn't me'

 

Think it was my first ever Park headliner too - from what I remember it was bloody marvellous

[CaledonianGonzo]

Would agree that the crowd were a little flat for it - I'm guessing not helped by The Park being a bit ropey underfoot by that point.

My comrades were all knackered and pretty much there as a second option in the absence of Foo The Leg and I more or less ditched them to bounce around with some guy who'd bellowed out "I'm A Minger" and some wifey handing out the mini-glowsticks.

[CHRLY]

I have a feeling quite a few of us may have interacted with each other at this gig...

[The Placid Casual]

I was wearing a red, white and green bucket hat with a Welsh badge on it.

[FuzzyDunlop]

My mate had a green octopus hat on. You can see him on TV a few times

[Gucci Piggy]

I feel the same. Really weird how we could have all been bouncing around together yet we'll never know.

[FuzzyDunlop]

I was about 8/9 rows from the fromt at a guess, near the speakers closer to the stonebridge bar rather than the rabbit hole.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I gave a few tentative shout outs in the vicinity of Land's End 15 minutes or so before it started, but noone took me up on it.
