I only have a few booked in comparison to the multitude I normally have but that's mainly down to not knowing my uni timetable yet and I kind of have to work around that as I'm in the arsehole of nowhere in Wales...

Yah uni's screwed my Jack White gig. Don't think I can get back to Newcastle after it, and I have 9-5 pretty much every day. I liked it better when I didn't get into uni.

Well I'll have to make my way back to Aberystwyth after Jack White on a monday night! Haven't caught him live before and he really is one of my favourite musicians so I can't really turn down the opportunity. Saying that, History degree's aren't as intense as Medicine so I'm not in as bad a situation as you :P If it means I'll have to miss a seminar though then I'm fucked as they're properly regulated. A lecture or two I don't mind missing but not a seminar... :/

excuses excuses.. :P

Haha, I've already taken her to see gaga before as well. I've taken her to a right load of shit over the years. Even did the glee concert with meet and greet....

We were sat right in the middle of the fucking stage too, I was mortified, dreading someone from work had taken their kids or something haha

My mum keeps wanting me to go to a concert with her, I'm a bit apprehensive because the last one she tried to take me to was Michael Buble :ninja:

This is when I understand it. You see a band at a festival who are good but they do a shorter set so you want to see more and different songs at their own show.

Saying that, at End Of The Road all acts are given a normal length set - the shortest I saw was 30 minutes by The Wytches but they were allotted a full hour, they just chose not to take it. The average was about an hour and not one of those sets made me think "well I've seen the act now, I wouldn't go to one of their own shows" - If I can/could, I'd go see all the acts I liked again at their own shows!

Well it depends on how much moneys you have. It's a way to raise my inclination.

Also I'm still bitter. :(

You should be as it was genuinely the best festival I've ever been to :P There's always next year though ;)

I actually got talking to Simon Taffe outside the backstage toilets at the garden stage (long story but it was right after I met bloody Alex Scally!!!) and he was saying that as its the 10th anniversary next year, he has in mind to book a few artists that rarely tour over hear (and when I mentioned Stars, he just grinned and said 'see you next year'!!!) :biggrin:

It was astonishing last year. I think Bestival '11 topped it IMO but still absolutely magical. And yeah, defo next year. Just gutting the timing of getting ill :(

    • Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
