V Festival 2005

Just to let you know, the V festival sounded great this year - well, the bits I could hear from my house. You have to concentrate a bit, and hope that the wind is in the right direction, and to roughly know who you're meant to be listening out for, but that's only a small matter. I heard Athlete playing "Beautiful" at just after 5 o'clock yesterday, and most of Scissor Sisters set last night ("Mary", "Comfortably Numb", "Return to Oz", "Filthy/Gorgeous" and some other song I didn't recognize).

Yes, I know I could have just turned on the radio, or watched it on TV, but that doesn't count, and anyway they only seemed to want to show The Ordinary Boys on the telly, and they're not particularly my tasse de thé.

I hope everyone that went to Hylands (and the other place) had a great time (sorry about the rain on Friday night) and you'll come back to sunny Chelmsford again!
