Lillehamring Posted 26 May 2007 Share Posted 26 May 2007 well, as i look out over the sea on this beautiful sunny day, it finally feels like summer and my thoughts turn to festivals. so who is going where this summer, I am going to Norwegian Wood in Oslo, budget only stretches to one day inside, rest of the weekend sitting in the park outside - but worth it for the one day Brian Wilson and Travis, should be good... it'll take a lot to beat my best festival experience though: glasto '93 - 30 degrees and non stop quality!

Deathside Posted 3 June 2007 Share Posted 3 June 2007 There were more Glastonburg tickets on sale this morning but all gone now - And I still couldn't get a campervan pass so I'm still pÃssed that I have to tent it GRRR I just checked the lineup - fúck me how many stages??? The list is too big to post here so you'll have to follow this link Glastonbury 2007 Full Lineup The ones I might be making an effort to see are: Kasabian (Maybe) Gogol Bordello Manic Street Preachers (Please play the old stuff) Iggy And The Stooges (Definate) The Chemical Brothers (Might be interesting if nothing else is on at the same time) The Rakes (Maybe) KT Tunstall (She's done a couple of songs that I really like for some strange reason) Fat Bloke Slim (Maybe) Mad Professor Billy Bragg Billy Bragg & Guests Grrrlesque (I'm always up for a bit of burlesque) Attila the Stockbroker (Definate) John Otway I suppose it's a bit sad that nothing on the John Peel stage appeals to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daggers Posted 5 June 2007 Share Posted 5 June 2007 [*]Attila the Stockbroker SHED FIRE A perfect English pageantry:an act so gloriously mundaneNew neighbours put up eight foot fenceSo strangers now will thus remainAs English as our small town presswho'd like so much to dish the dirtbut headline uneventfulness:'Local shed fire. No-one hurt.'A cod war veteran complainsabout some kids skateboarding byThe Daily Mail sells very wellAnd he and it see eye to eyeThe homeless sleep under the pierBut most round here don't seem to careThat's city life, another's news.Shed fire, though. Police aware.The poster shouts it, black and whiteA headline story, that's for sureAnd there's a pull out TV guideFor folk who rarely ask for moreAnd two, more lively than the rest,Are chatting in the autumn sun.Not in their back yard, thank god,But shed fire. Little damage done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
