snuggles84 — Fri, 22 Jun 2007 11:24:39 +0100

oh well there are zillions of other bands here to see that iv always wanted to so i will be keeping away from alot of the mainstream bands this year and seeing the other bands and artist ( but of course i will still see !!! maximo and bloc party )

how bloody fantastic was IOW!!!! apart from the sunburn it was mint :)

even thou it was bigger this year it didn't feel it. the only things that were a let down for me was that the screens on the main stage were tiny compared to prevease years and they were not always workin ( im only 5'5 so couldn't see much wen i wasn't down the front! and i swear the stage wa sloweer then last year? and where was the Quorn stall?!!!!?!!!? being a fussy veggie i was dissapointed it wasn't there as the food is lush - im praying it's at my other festivals........

so highlights being KEANE, SNOW PATROL, AMY WINEHOUSE, THE FEELING. i thought the fratekkis and paolo nuttini were good too. Groove armada were excellent and i had loads of fun dancing to them never in my life did i ever think i would see the rolling stones but i did. my personal high from the week end was MUSE. they were awesome. wish i didn't have to of given my ticket away for wembley but at least i got to see them . i love IOW its a gr8 way to start of the festival season. next up for me is glastonbury next week then t in the park.

but iv been lucky enough to get a ticket for maximo park so im off to oxford 2mo to see them wohoo

radio one BIG weekend

wooooo i can hear the sirens coming lmao it was a bloody fantastic night!!!

i sooo stayed at the INMWT stage ( coz i really would pick kaiser's over my beloved maximo!!!!)

M.I.A was really good, very interesting live act and good at engaging the crowd. loved the costumes they were wearing thou it did start making my eyes go funny!?!

Dizzie Rascal was fcuking fantastic :) was brilliant, thou i think thats where my first set of barrier bruises came from ( i was right at the front in the middle and very unfortunately appear alot on the telly. i am in hiding now ) his set seemed to be over way to quickly for my liking.

klaxons were ok, iv seen them play alot better but the crowd were mad for them so it was great in that the atmosphere was mental!!! proper lost my head in that :)

MAXIMO FANTASTICO were bloody fantastic :) :) :) :)

from the first cord to the very last i dont think i breathed i was that excited!! personal highlight was books and girls and urge. loved how archis and duncan really lost themselves , it was beyond words. and paul better watch his back as lucas is dominating the stage at the moment! speaking of Mr smith( who9 i spotted gettin into dizzie rascal side stage) he was great, really pushing the songs to the furthest he possibly could, at one point i thought his veins would explode. got some fantastic photos ( and the my beloved set list) which i shall put on my website in the next few weeks. i'll post a link when i have.

and last but not least

Bloc Party! they were great, it's the first iv seen them since V06 so it was great tio hear how the new songs have come along so well. i was still way to hyper from maximo's set to remeber the first few songs but i really enjoyed it. still cant decide which song was my fav from their set yet.... my attention span is at minimum today as iv had 5 hours sleep :'(

2 times in one night?

snuggles84 — Sat, 19 May 2007 15:31:28 +0100

OMG

jimmy ywice in one day and not repeating songs.

iv died and gone to heaven :)

twatters

snuggles84 — Sat, 19 May 2007 15:30:06 +0100

what is it about guys that makes them so bloody unreliable? if you say your gonna do something why dont you ever follow throu? maybe it's just coz i just attract twats but even my friends that are guys are just the worse at things like meeting up or returning phonecalls.

ok rant over im off to preston

wohooooooooo

maximo fantastico

snuggles84 — Sat, 19 May 2007 15:27:21 +0100

what a week i had. 4 maximo gigs in one week. im still recovering.

forum was the best night by far but linmassol was best at shepards bush. the crowd just went mad for it but id say that forum was the real fans night. the guys looked like they were enjoying it and i know i bloody did.

i didn't enjoy stage 1 @ northumbria as i wasn't very well, there were alot of twats in the crowd and it was so hot i almost fainted :(

i had serious gig comedown this week but that is being rectified today as i am off to preston and will see maximo 2mo (along with klaxons and dizzy rascal and bloc party wohoo)
