Tune-Yards

[Pipkins]

Did any one else watch the Tune-Yards o the Jazz World stage this year. It was the first group I saw this year (and admittedly the one I was looking forward to), but i have to say it was THE gig of the festival. Unfortunately no video seems to exist (none on Youtube and no cameras for the BBC). Is there anybody else here who can vouch for this being the mind-blowing set I know it was? I've been going for 25 years and this was truely one of the best gigs ever.

Oh - and if you missed Richard Thompson - you missed the 2nd best set of the festival!

I wanted to see it but missed it, I'd imagine she'd be a good performer - especially in the sun.

Oh, and I'm going to add another act who no one saw but who was brilliant, Dirty Projectors on the Park stage on Sunday. Felt a bit sorry for them, the crowd was so small.

I REALLY wanted to see them aswell. She's a genius.

The heat put paid to my attendance though. If she ever plays Dublin I'll be there front and centre.

Didn't actually see them but heard them - was lying down in the tent at the time but could hear everything pretty well from where we were camped in West Holts - didn't know who it was but thought it sounded absolutely brilliant, fantastic singing - looked it up in the programme later when I managed to move from where I lay.

Also thought Richard Thomson was great - went on my own to see him as everyone else going elsewhere - and also Loudon Wainwright before him.

Yeah I saw them and they were definitely as good as you say. I really want to buy the album and it'll be among the first things I do buy once I can afford it.
