What time is it ?
Time to post me thinks, kids are off school, life is busy, everything goes wrong at the wrong time, not enough money, not enough time, just a normal day then!
But, off to Leeds Festival
next week and am already excited at seeing Tenacious D what a change from dreary guitar bands, having forgot more bands that I’ve seen than most will do in a lifetime you need some freshness injected into the mix and I think ‘T D’ may do that, I know, I know good bands aren’t dreary at all but there’s only so much twang! you can take after listening for so long, I need a break!
Other favs may go and see, (not just for me and if stage times don’t clash) include, (in no particular order) Our Fold, Rage against the Machine, Queens of the Stone Age, CSS, We Are Scientists, Twisted Wheel, Digitalism, amongst others….
Might take some photos this time but the trusty Sony T5 is not being so trusty any more and my favourite compact (Casio QV-5700) may be a little slow for such an occasion but we’ll see.
Last year we had a fantastic time and didn’t hit the stages until about 6pm just chilling in the warmth of the summer sun with a cold beer and my favourite friend.
A special mention to Tony at Scream Promotionsand XFM Manchester especially Hanna and Rick Shaw. Thank you.
Love the T-Shirt, taken at Leeds 2000.
