Ah! Well that would probably put me off it too!
But then BDO has left a lot to be desired of recent years and Fall's has become this great money making venture, so I'm not sure we'll ever enjoy festivals the way we used to anymore.
Be worth it if it's gonna be all them AND Duran Duran. But I'm not adding an airfare onto the ticket price just to go. I'm a bit over all that now days anyway.
It's on around the country Jeanie.

Showgrounds huh? Hmmm....they've messed with that so bad I'm not sure I'd wanna go back there again. I'll have to see if anyone is interested in coming with. I've seen QOTSA before but not Pumpkins and I've always wanted to so it's enticing I must admit.
To be honest Jamie, one of the things I found mind numbingly boring about the UK was the quality of the radio. I had severe jjj withdrawl the whole time I was there. Had to buy cassettes so I had something to listen to and even those choices were pretty bad.
You said it. The radio is no better now, 'white line music'...middle of the road. I hate it, why do you think I listen to that internet station?
glastonbury...now there's festival i could go for. and you know as well as i do jamie, the monkeys were the biggest thing in two worlds then. i am rather a fan of young alex turner. and the public are so so fickle...especially you brits.
Don't be fooled, even Glastonbury is gone 'hit parade', radio one, popular with the masses BBC station, got involved 10 years ago and now.....forget it! Full of posh student kids, Henley Regatta one week...Glastonbury the next! Oh, and whoever is top of the pops that year will headline..as I said.

So decided on the Fooeys and Jack Johnson instead of V-Fest. Between that and Christmas I'm pretty poor now. If V-Fest tix are still up for grabs I'll do that too. Alot of bands in Oz next Autumn.
they're kind of mellow, folky duo, guy & girl vocals, brother & sister i think. not bad, the girls voice gets on my tits at times, she's got a bit of joanna newsom thing going on.
Just bought their album itsevo. Listening to it now and really enjoying it.

They're pretty cool huh?

Me too!
Best show of the week I reckon!
They always have cool stuff on, blasts from the past and such a good laugh too!
Can't believe that all those guys from the 70s where in LA at the same time and recorded! And what a crack up of a song! Typical!
