  1. Last year was great; although it was apparently very rainy on the Friday, but I never went to that.

    On the Saturday, it was threatening to rain the whole day - including the coolest lightning bolts I have ever seen in my life all around the park. It truly was an electric atmosphere heading into Neil. By the time he finished, it was a beautiful summers evening, and Greensleeves coming out over the speakers just made the night feel special...

    On the Sunday, it was a really warm day, and Bruce on a summer's night was just perfection. I still get chills thinking about the crowd singing the refrain from "Badlands" for quite a long time after he had left the stage...

    This year has the potential to be epic in every respect:

    - Rawk n' Roll on the Friday - with some potential collaborations, I bet!

    - Summer's eve party with Stevie on the Saturday, Hyde Park shakin' all night long!

    - Closing off with some of the world's most famous songs from undoubtedly one of the biggest legends of music of all time. This one will be emotional for many, I bet.

    What songs is everyone looking forward to hearing on the nights they are going? For me:

    - Friday - literally anything. No point in crossing my fingers, it's my first PJ show, so anything at all is new and amazing to me.

    - Saturday - As, Living for the City... I could go on, but I'd list almost everything.

    - Sunday - Blackbird, All My Loving, I'm Looking Through You, The End... I'm also really hoping he ends with Please, Please Me!

  2. Yeah that appeals to me, I like having the feel of a festival whilst knowing you're in a city! I'm recruiting friends to go. It sounds like the crowd is an interesting mix. If I could find some people to have an Irish jig with, I would be impressed haha. As for the herbal side of it, I'm not into that but it was interesting at Summer Sundae in Leicester last year you didn't even get searched. That's trusting right there! Maybe at the end of the day when people were strewn over the grass passed out they thought "Hmm...maybe we should have been a little more strict!"
  3. Muse are incredible live, especially if they bring out the Sky dish set with the lasers (all I'm saying is I was impressed and I've seen a fair few gigs/festivals in my time).

    If you want to see what they're like live I have some vids from V '08 so PM me.

  4. Newbie question I'm afraid, but I've only just started looking at Hard Rock Calling! I have obviously been living under a rock after seeing the great line-ups! Are there no full weekend tickets available to purchase because I've left it ridiculously late to be interested in going? Thanks :P
  5. It may not be the announcement you're all waiting for, but the Bandstand will be returning for 2010 on the Saturday and Sunday, hosted by the lovely Bella Union record label. The line up will be announced at midday tomorrow.

    at least we're hearing some news :P
