This weekend was the first annual Good Weekend Festival and it was AH-MAY-ZING.
The site only holding 500 people, it was a nice intimate affair. An intimate but lovely affair.
Two stages, eight food stands, one bar, a bunch of friends… It really was gorgeous.
We had to put up with one moment of monsoon rain for 30 minutes on friday evening, apart from that it was sunny sunny sunny. Literally baking hot.
The line up was brilliant! Art Brut obviously had to headline, the festival being named after Art Brut’s song of the same name. Other great acts that I saw were ‘Fly, Frankie, Fly’, Charlie and the Martyrs, Worship, Lulu and the Lampshades and the HILARIOUS Hot Club De Paris.
Also playing were friends Lighthouses – and I was blown away with how good they were! After the Jump is a video of them performing the outdoor stage on the Friday evening (just pre-monsoon), absolutely brilliant.
So I am exhausted, but now blogging because I got back from the festival at about 2pm this afternoon, but was straight out again for a meeting regarding my next festival, Big Chill.
I really need to sleep, so goodbye for now. See you in a field sometime soon? Also, don’t forget the Lighthouses video, absolute class after the jump.
