I remember seeing some of the C4 footage and the NME photos after Glastonbury that year and it looked like proper arid desert

This was my 3rd consecutive year at BKS and even if it wasn't the best, there was much to enjoy. Friday was my favourite day thanks to fine sets from St Vincent, Baxter Dury, Sofia Kourtesis, La Femme and an unexpectedly terrific one from Badbadnotgood. Saturday had fewer top moments but I did enjoy Fatoumata Diawara and The Mary Wallopers whilst Slowdive, Infinity Song, the Lambrini Girls and Etran DeLair had their moments. As did the bands I saw on the Sunday - Paris Paloma, The Mysterines, Sprints, Slow Pulp and Jockstrap. Highlight of the day (and the weekend) was that stunning set by PJ Harvey - a wonderful selection of new and old songs, brilliantly performed and with a perfect sound mix. Luckily we had dry and mostly sunny weather all weekend and even if it was a bit chilly at times, it was more tolerable than the blazing hot temperatures of the past 2 years. I like the shuttle service from Tilburg where I was staying. Lucky to get a hotel room as these are rather lacking in the city. There has been improvements to the Casbah stage and it was easier to see bands on stage. I'm still puzzled by the fact that there's 75 minutes between each act on that stage whereas it's 1 hour on stages One and Two and only 45 minutes on The Secret stage. There would be scope for a couple of more acts on the Casbah stage if there was a quicker turnover. I see that the dates for next year are a week later than usual. Presumably because Primavera Sound is scheduled for the first weekend in June.

The National, there is no way they can be on the same farm as me with me not being there.
