Wow well yesterday was a massive success. A bit too much main stage for me but with how bad the sound was on Amazon Music, it ended up being the right move.
Freddie Gibbs & Madlib as expected. Really hard slot when everyone is just finding their feet (and aren't drunk yet) and hip-hop sets kind of rely on energy from the crowd. Sounded decent but yeah nothing special.
Amyl were f**king great. A massive step up in confidence and performance from last time. Clearly been headlining smaller fests and owning the responsibility.
Amaarae a little bit disappointing but mainly due to sound issues I think. Bass was all messed up where we stood.
Vampire Weekend did the job but yeah I felt like a lot of songs melted together and it passed me by.
Deftones was absolutely biblical. A few songs missing that I really would have loved like 7 Words, Butcher and Bored but still amazing.
Straight into Justice who absolutely pummelled me. Didn't know speakers could make those sounds. Can't wait to see them again at Glasto. Favourite act at my favourite festival was a special moment.
Weigedood are nuts man. Love that this festival always has the token metal band playing a crazy late set. Such a different vibe to everywhere else in the festival.
Overall amazing day with so much good music. Today we're off for Ethel Cain b2b Omar Apollo b2b Troye Sivan. What an amazing run! Gonna take it easy and probably leave after Barry Can't Swim tonight. Everything going really well so far, today's the real organisation test so lets see how we go.
What's the actual evidence for this? I highly doubt this transpires.
Genuinely perplexes me that people send their kids to private school, I went to one of the best state schools in Scotland (lucky, I know) and if you can afford to live in the catchment area then a decent amount will also be able to afford school fees but many choose not to cause the state school is good.
And you might say , 'well not all state schools are good and some are dumps' but people who could go to private school don't tend to live in areas with poor state schools from my experience. It may be different in England where you have grammar schools etc I dunno
What if they restrict tax relief on pension contributions or apply capital gains tax on your main house or replace council tax or start indexing fuel duty again or extend NI to pensioner income or put charges on some free services. None of those would make Reeves a liar.
