On my way back from Wide Awake festival so thought I’d post a little review… Doors were at 2pm, but seeing as we won tickets the day before and had some prior work commitments, we couldn’t arrive until later, so were aiming to get there for 5.30 and watch Sofia Kourtesis. My pal and his Uber driver had other ideas. No drama, I was sat in the sun with a pint ready to embark on the first festival of 2022. Eventually get into the festival an hour later than planned and watched 45 mins of Call Super. Great DJ, tune selection was ace and mixing was tight, only downside was a small crowd and fairly low volume. We then went to the main stage for Caribou. Despite being 10 metres inside the sound desk we could barely hear a thing. I know it’s a city centre festival but this was the worst sound I’ve ever experienced at a festival. Stayed for 30 mins then cut our losses, went to grab a drink and a good spot for Overmono (live). This is where it kicked up a notch. Fuck me, these boys at good. Like really really fucking good. I don’t know who is on your Glasto hit list, but Overmono need to go to the top. Do not miss them!! You have been warned. We then went back to the main stage for Bicep. I saw them at Brixton in September and the set is almost identical, albeit with beefed up visuals. Anyone seeing them at Glasto will end the weekend on a high, really joyous set. My only gripe, is that they went off for 5 mins before coming back on for an “encore” of Glue and Apricots. The gap killed the momentum and meant the last 2 tunes fell a little flat. Just don’t think there’s a need for an “encore” in electronic sets like this. But overall was a great day in the sun, with some top electronic music. Hope everybody else who went had fun.

That model is £39.99 on Amazon atm (and there's and 8% voucher). You can take the 8% code on the Anker website and buy it for £23.92.

And me, spent many years going to free parties, loved DIY… Smokescreen are playing somewhere too (Shangri La I think?)

Bit of Castlemorton style vibes very very welcome. DIY/Spiral Tribe stuff could be a lot of fun for middle aged me.

So Ropey again for WE2 😉

I thought she was amazing too

Hey everyone! I´ve been reading this forum for the past 6 years (thank you all for all the info/conversation) but this is my first post 😅 This morning I went to the Forum to have a look at how the festival is building up, got a couple of pics! The new exit in Mordor is huge, at first I thought it was the old seating space but it connects perfectly with the street and the map confirms it. Hope that we all have a blast this year!
