Badlands Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Same here, turned up on my own with a bottle of rum whilst already drunk and used it to make friends with a load of middle aged guys around me. Remember none of the night other than a couple of SFA songs and then being sat at a table outside a tipi with a random bunch of people and walking home. None of my friends saw me all night and I woke up with all my clothes covered in mud. So weird. Althought I actually felt pretty good the next day. Were you stood at the right of the stage and were they Geordies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russycarps Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Comfortably the best gig of the weekend. So many of my favourites weren't played though, but that was always going to happen. Brilliant gig, loved every second of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyDunlop Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Really pleased I made the decision to go there rather than the West Holts. Excellent from start to finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maelzoid Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Really enjoyed it. I think the park is my favourite stage in terms of atmosphere and getting a good view. It was great to see a headliner there and SFA were tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple aki squat Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 The band and crowd were well up for it. Easily the best set of the weekend. Saturday morning was tough though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gucci Piggy Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I always end up stood on the right hand side and can't see anything cause of that bloody camera! I appeared to have tried to take three pictures of the gig. One of them I got the top half of the stage, one of them I got this big camera, and one I got a blurry pic of a guy's back.

windy_miller Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Easily the best gig of the weekend, and the best gig from SFA that I have ever seen. I think this set has cemented The Super Furries as one of the best british bands of the last 20 years. Absolutely incredible stuff. I'd like to thank Dave Grohl for breaking his leg, otherwise I would never have seen this wonderful performance! So glad they played Pan Ddaw'r Wawr which is my favourite song from Mwng!

ThomThomDrum Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I did find the lack of intro odd for them but banging out Slow Life first thing had instantaneous beams on faces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badlands Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 I was, and I think that might have been. Were you there?! It may well have been us! Rum out of a coke bottle?? It all sounds terribly familiar. Set of the weekend by the way. Mountain People was immense!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gucci Piggy Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 It may well have been us! Rum out of a coke bottle?? It all sounds terribly familiar. Set of the weekend by the way. Mountain People was immense!!! Was a plastic volvic bottle I think. Morgan's spiced. Think one of the guys was wearing a brown adidas jacket and I was wearing a backwards Yorkshire cricket cap, denim shorts and grey denim shirt, if that helps. No clue what happened that night, and I don't remember too much of SFA, so I hope I wasn't a nuisance there haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgc07 Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 SFA were probably the best headliner of the weekend. There was maybe a little low after the first two songs but then the set got better and better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
When Jokers Attack Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 Set of the weekend. No Hockey Hair but it was perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perks Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 I buzzed of this, wasn't going to see them, but me pal was heading over and I'd already missed Christy Moore, so thought may aswell, Wow, it awesome. Just heard a song from the set on 6 (Hometown Unicorn?) got emotional.....again. So glad I saw them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familiar2billions Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 I was absolutley shattered on the Friday, i had definitely hit the wall from Wednesday and Thursday to the point where i kept napping and couldn't reclaim any energy. So much so that i went back to the tent after Libs and was worried that i wouldn't be able to get back up for SFA. 30 minutes rest to myself and a dab of something naughty sorted me out though and i legged it to the Park just in time to hear Slow Life... WHAT A SET IT WAS! Im so glad i man'd up and headed down there as it was my first ever SFA gig and easily the set of the weekend. My mates who ended up going along as a result of the Foo's dropping out were also really pleased they went too as they said it was one of the best gigs they have seen in years.

mungo57 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 I will admit I did require the usage of certain substances to keep me awake as I was shattered too, but was still an excellent gig. BBC is shit - just been on their site to see what videos they had, all they have is fucking Juxtaposed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
