Missed it by hours. Finished work late and dreaded parking. By some miracle, am parked in exact same spot as last year. Gutted I missed blondie but all good so far. Mud in places but feared worse, remember kiddies, there's no bad weather just bad clothing. Time for nightcap then bed


And just to add. Tenner for program and lanyard. And by program I mean telephone book. Dear god you could kill some one with this thing.

Damn sun has me awake. Camping has its downsides, but at least I know I won't sleep through trinity Orchestra :pac:

Phew! After a ropey, wet start yesterday, I've woken up warm and cozy!

Day 1 done, and I'm regretting not staying out later. It was just do full on, I didn't 't fancy walking all the way to family camping by myself late, and I normally wouldn't give that a second thought!

Tradiohead were great fun, and Foals were just amazing! Had planned to watch Crow Black Chicken, who are brilliant, but they were beginning to make our ears bleed in the tiny Jimmy Lee's Juke Joint. . . . basically like listening to Canned Heat in a garden shed. . Ouch!

Bring on day 2!

Young Fathers in Body & Soul were amazing last night. That main B&B stage just adds so much to a performance.
Raring to go now for day 2.

unlike years ago the rave in the woods is now backed by a commercial entity (Red Bull) so just follow the signs for the Red Bull Music Academy stage, there's even lit paths to it now. It's outside of the main music arena, quite close to the Oscar Wilde campsite.
You will hear it before you see it, definitely worth a visit.

Benjamin Brooker. Did any one else catch him. Was up at barrier for the set. Best so far by a mile

Remember folks, the theatre tent will be the place to be tomorrow from 1-5pm. some amazing talent and a great place to chill out.

Spent 20 minutes last night walking around trying to find it while asking every security guard we saw and being guided by radio control (Was working medical last night). Eventually ended up hoping a fence and trekking through woods, seemed like everyone was wandering around looking for it, damn elusive place!
