It’s almost the perfect site for a music festival and impeccably organised. The single thing I dislike about it is that there isn’t an area that has car-free camping. I always take the bus there and it would be so much better not to have all the motor vehicles mixed in with the tents.
I can’t tell you how much I love Alvvays. They are playing my city in December and I can’t wait to see them.
Lucky you! Are you from Manila? Any good bands fun there you recommend?
You must have been reading my mind. I have almost posted this one a couple of times. Believe it or not, I once went to a Magick Heads gig. Every so often, I listen to this album as well as the follow up. Have you heard Bob Scott’s Electric Easter Blood stuff?
90% of my week (at least it felt like it) was focussed on Alvvays. I count myself as very lucky to see them on consecutive nights, during the week, and both gigs were soooooooo good. I saw them 4 years ago and have really liked them for a while before that…but now I really love them. They probably top my personal chart right now and will do for a while, I think. Seeing this NPR set capped off a great week of fandom!
