The morning after the night before

Wow! Last night was incredible. On the Radio1/NME stage was Paul Weller going through a back catalogue to make anyone weak at the knees, while over on the Main Stage the Red Hot Chilli Peppers were storming through a fantastic set. And before them, Franz Ferdinand enjoyed the adulation of nearly all 70,000 T-goers!

Special mention for me, though, has to go to The Zutons (currently your blogger's favourite live act!). Their rendition of Valerie with the crowd singing along to the chorus was spectacular. Those boys (and girl) know how to get a crowd going. And of course they played Pressure Point, the song that features on our cool new video which we're showing at festivals across the summer.

We're just getting ready to open up the tent again this morning, in fact I should probably be helping out! We're hoping for another bumper day, so fingers crossed the current drizzle goes away. The site here is a disused airfield, so when the sky is grey and there's a fine rain (the worst kind of rain) it's really pretty bleak! Never mind, today's line-up rocks. Here we go!
