Crow's Nest

[Tatterdemalion]

One of my resolutions for this year's festival was to keep a close eye on The Crows Nest chalkboard and try my best to get up there for a couple of acts.

 

Made it there for Pip Blom and so glad I did. Really high energy set, whole place dancing from start to finish. Was also very cool to see Pip's mum bopping away with everyone else and looking proud as punch.

 

Having missed Snapped Ankles at Williams Green earlier on I was determined to catch them at The Crow's Nest. I was flagging a bit after waiting an hour for them to come on and the place was rammed. After the first couple of songs the crowd churn had moved me a bit closer to the stage, then suddenly a Ghillie suited figure grabbed me and pulled me into the fray. I hadn't noticed the extra tree-people make their entrance so it was a surprise to suddenly have one with their arm round my shoulder and stoking my face. That really helped recharge my batteries and I was bopping away non stop for the rest of the gig.

 

So very pleased that I stuck to that resolution, in fact I wish I could have made it there for a few more things.
